    Who's been most screwed by the Bills? Of All Time.

    Tyrod could be "elite"? Puh-leeze! Good grief. With the money and the chances they gave him he has been treated fairly. I totally understand why Tyrod would feel frustrated and angry. It's how nearly any player would feel. But he simply hasn't played well enough. He's handling this like a pro, like the good guy that he is. But if he'd played better, this move never would have happened.

     

    I understand why he doesn't have a lot of total yards, but his YPA was 6.6. I mean that's awful, it's 30th in the league.  Teams know Tyrod now and how to shut him down. It's not surprising they had to make a change.

     

    Will putting in Peterman make the Bills better? Won't teams figure him out too and learn how to shut him down? Maybe. Hard to say, but I totally understand this move. They aren't getting it done. Changes are necessary. We may see more as things move along.

     

    As for being screwed ... Fred Jackson, maybe, but I'd say Travis Henry. Remember when he kept playing on a broken leg? The guy was tough and good, and put it all on the line for the team, and they drafted Willis McGahee. 

     

    Henry turned out to be an idiot, trafficking cocaine and burying himself in child support payments, but the Bills treated him badly and McGahee IMHO wasn't any better. Waste of a draft pick.

     

    Didnt even think of Henry but it’s probably as good an answer as Phillips.

    Nathan Peterman to Start this Week.

    Pure speculation, but I think Dennison came up to McDermott on Monday and expressed his desire for the QB change.

     

     Did anyone watch Dennison's PC on Monday? In retrospect, I thought it was interesting the way he talked about what transpired for him the night after the game.

     

    He said he called OL coach Waffle  in the middle of the night to talk about OL blocking solutions, which is not something he would normally do... at least not in the middle of the night right after the game. But he said he wasn't going to sleep anyway. 

     

     

     I think Mcdermott is a really hands off guy when it comes to the offense. More than I thought he might've been.   He planned on starting Taylor moving forward Sunday and even Monday, but had a conversation and a lengthy one with Dennison on Monday and went with his OC.

     

    I think it was a collective unit.  McDermott is a calculated guy.  I think he spoke with not only the coaches but some players.  I don't think he makes this decision without consulting with the leaders on this team and the coaching staff.  He has stated more than once he really relies on the Kyle Williams, Lorax, Wood and Incognito for their leadership in the locker room.  

     

    I think you could be right with Dennison coming up to McDermott but I also think it could be the other way around.

    If you think Tyrod was the sole cause of the Bills problems and that Nathan will single-handedly cure all their ills, then I think you are going to be as disappointed as a kid who finds out Santa Claus isn't real.

     

    I don't think anyone will think that.  The excitement or rejuvenation is potentially having a decent passing offense.

    But he didn't actually play the race card or say anything, so you two are using this thread to fume over a completely unrelated political issue.

     

    May as well yell at some clouds while you're at it.  You're angry, we get it.

     

    Im not angry at all Marv.

    Now if you were driving slow in the left lane and refusing to get over...I’d get angry.

    Not emotional, just thought the crap people bought when the FO said in "not so many word" that they were tanking an .500 team the prior 2 years pissed me to no end.  

     

    I expected a big year from Watkins....  And Boldin would have stuck imo if Watkins wasn't traded and what he saw in training camp.

     

    Tyrod's to me was given a lousy offense and game plan to work with.

    Geez let's go back to the threads when 5-2 as to what a D we had and all we needed was 200 yards passing a game from Tyrod......

     

    I was the one with threads clamoring to throw for 300 like every NFL team can.  This O is a joke......

     

    Front office never said it was tanking.

    Dumb move, just plain dumb.   Yes, Taylor looked bad but the offensive line and defense are atrocious over the last two weeks.

     

    This might make sense if we were 2-7 but this is a 5-4 team and they are starting a 5th round rookie who barely has 50% completions when playing in preseason and garbage time.     Taylor needs to get better, but the line has been disgraceful over the last two games, at least Taylor can run,  Peterman stands no chance behind that turnstile factory. 

     

    Despite the rough last two weeks, Buffalo could potentially beat fellow wild card contender San Diego, be 6-4 and right back in the thick of the hunt with four division games left.   That is not a time to mail it in.  This is going to backfire big time.    

     

    Were not mailing it in.  They made the move because they felt Peterman gives them the best chance to win.

    I see other teams adapt and get better.  NE is the best example.  I can't tell you how many times their defense has come out flat to start a season and yet every year they finish top ten in keeping the other team from scoring.  I want that.  They run or pass completely based on what the other team is doing.  We run the same stupid offense no matter what.  At least last year and the year before we ran the same stupid offense no matter what but it worked most of the time.   I am worried this offense just isn't going to work regardless of QB.  If Taylor and then Peterman isn't working, then we draft some "franchise" QB and throw him to Dennison and that doesn't work we are really creating a huge void and dedicating seasons and resources to a problem that may always be coaching.

     

    It's easy to use NE as an example because they have the greatest QB of all time.  Everything is easier and deficiencies are masked when you have that guy under center.
