So if we end up 9-7 and lose a tie-breaker...
dollars 2 donuts replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
scares the hell out of me that I have actually thought about this...not with respect to your dog, but the final two games...your dog would just help me escape this turmoil. -
No, but let me check again...oh yeah...it's what are the three best road games by Tyrod Taylor. Not everything is a fight, dude. Not every comment or thread is an invitation to confrontation and going aggro for the purposes of mixing it up. See, the thing is, I can explain it to you, but I can't comprehend it for you...that's on your end. If you're reading it as a purpose or reason to take it as an a front to something...man, then, OK...that's your call. I just know my OT doesn't have any baiting in it. I think those are his three best road games. Some may even mention the Tennessee game...very few yards, but he made some nice plays in pulling out a victory. ...we will need a very good Tyrod...regardless of his future here and regardless of anyone's current feelings on the man...if there is any hope of winning this weekend. I want the Bills to win this weekend, however unlikely that may be. My OT had three games where I thought he played well on the road. They show respectable yardage (277, 289, 291), TDs (3, twice through the air) and make affirmative comments ("ALL man", "loss...so what?" and "need yards and TDs in Foxborro"...like in the listed game).

Yeah, I kind of missed the part in my post where I said he is the QB of the future and we should rally behind him as he is the best option right now over Peterman, Webb, EJ, Yates, etc. because that part of the scenario is currently up in the air right now. I'll check again, though, just to be sure. ...yep, I didn't. I just went over it and it appears I just said what I thought were his three best games on the road as some inspiration ("possibly") heading into the weekend because regardless of the internet he is the starter for the Bills. Mainly this thread is also based upon the fact that Mr. Peabody and the Way Back Machine aren't around so that I could go and get a 32 year old Jim Kelly to play on Sunday or else this would be super easy...so...I mean...it's Tyrod on Sunday...on the road.

In honor of what we have facing us as Bills fans this week in New England, and what we have to overcome, what are the three best road games Tyrod Taylor has played to possibly give us some inspiration? In no particular order: @ KC, 11-29-15, L: yes, a loss but he threw for 291 (21-38) yards and had three TDs...we are going to need yards and TDs in Foxborro this weekend. @ Mia, 9-27-15, W: 21 of 29, for 277 yards and 3 tds...need I say more? @Seattle, 11-7-16, L: yeah, another loss...so what? He was ALL man in that game, 27-38 for 289, 1 TD, 1 pick, with 8 carries for 43 yards and 1 TD. There are other road games of note, even with less impressive stat lines than the above that I will leave to you guys to bring up.

Just FYI, all of you who said the Bengals are getting ridiculously easy up votes from me, whether your comments are good or not...but they've generally all been pretty good. Merry Christmas or "Happy Holidays" if you hate Christmas. -

OK, but I still think the Cincy game. The jets are a much better team, regardless of the comparable records, than CIncy. It was a short week and we were going on the road to NY...tough order. AFC mark would still be 7-3 either way and I am not worried, even now, about Miami catching us even if they do because we'd still be toast at that point (they win second place at 8-8, so be it)...so divisional game really doesn't mean squat. EDIT: and if memory serves me, we were also winning for a brief period of time in the third or fourth quarter of the CIncy game. After the very first play of the Jets game I turned into every Star Wars character: "I got a bad feeling about this." -

Respectfully, to the guys calling out the Jets game, were the Bills ever really in that game? -

The above as Patrick Duffy and I were talking about in another thread. -
Do we make the upset in Foxboro?
dollars 2 donuts replied to Braedenstearns's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Duff, somebody somewhere nationally (sports illustrated, espn? don't remember) during the pre-season, when no one was picking the Bills to do anything, said the bills 5th game of the season against Cincy may be the determining factor of whether they make it to the playoffs or not. Crazy if it ends up being true. Additionally, for those who think it is the same thing for any other loss I have to disagree. Cincy is the worst team we've played and lost to. Don't give me the Jets as they have been in almost ever game this season and they are a divisional opponent hungry for blood. Sure they could have beat Carolina on the road, but that is an NFC game and this just in, Carolina is pretty good this year. They had to just plain reach out and take the Cincy game, even with the injuries at that point (including Clay part of the way through the game) and if everything stays the exact same this is a dramatically different team with a 9-5 record (7-3 AFC record) heading into the last two weeks. Hell, we'd still be going for not only a shot at the division this weekend with 2 Patriot losses, but also a first round bye still on the table. -

When Gaines missed the Cincy game (one that we sort of had to have considering the tire fire they are) I noticed how much our pass defense was hurting without him...and every time thereafter without him. he doesn't play I give them no chance. Throw in road Tyrod Taylor, a non-existent WR group, and no pass rush...I mean, come on guys. I love this team, but come on. i hope I am wrong. In the worst way I do. -
49ers Playing Hard

And I know this may be a typical Bills fan small time thing for me to say, but this was my hope for the last few weeks...just to at least make it through and be in it on the final day of the season for the first time in 13 years. Yes, I want to make the playoffs...but to have every game truly matter throughout the season was a small victory I was going to be happy with at the start of this season. -
Respectfully I disagree. They throttled us and would have throttled us with TT at QB. No, credit goes to those prognosticators before the start of the season (Sports Illustrated maybe? Can't remember who said it but someone did) who said that the Bengals game will determine if the Bills will make the playoffs or not. Cincy is a tire fire and although we were only one pass away against Carolina, that Bengals game against an AFC team that stinks may end up costing us everything.

Is there any scenario where a Bills win next week might clinch a playoff spot? i know it's not just everyone else losing, due to other tie breaker scenarios if we were to lose to Miami. just curious. -
Happy 3rd Anniversary today

Jimmy, you ARE right. I'm not kidding you, man, I remember that play like it was yesterday and thinking to myself, "wait...what?...that's the season...what? why did he...wait..." Can we maybe just agree that generally he was in retirement mode after week 10?! -

Now THAT is the anniversary of Kyle Orton sliding way short of the first down marker...and the very moment he decided he was retiring at the end of the season. -

Glad that favorite team won, Ice. Sad that my second favorite team lost home field advantage because of it and it may have cost them a Super Bowl appearance. -
Aaron Rodgers is back - Pack to Playoffs?
dollars 2 donuts replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Look, they have always been my second favorite team in the NFL, but their road is TOOOOOOOUUUUUGGGGHHHHHH! -
So...ya know...Yeahhhhhhh us. Honestly, I thought the absolute ceiling for this team was 8-8. I figured 5-11 to 7-9 was likely and this has been a reasonably entertaining season. Please keep it going, Bills, this weekend against what increasingly is looking like a more difficult game against the Phins. EDIT: Additionally, and a weird stat I need to look into, outside of the late 80s-90s playoff teams I do not believe any bills teams have put together 4 straight season of at least 7 wins or more.

So does anyone BELIEVE we will make the Playoffs?
dollars 2 donuts replied to BigDingus's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I love that we get to talk like this in December. No, we have never won a Super Bowl and I am going to go out on a limb and say it seems unlikely we will win one this year...but this is a blast, isn't it?
