  1. Just remember the preseason when they had Sammy Watkins catch all of those passes at the beginning of preseason right before they traded him. They highlighted him before they made a move.

     

    Anyone else not possibly thinking that they are doing it again with Glenn? He plays a full game, he looks healthy to other teams, he has good production in his career and then the Bills move him.

     

    It is especially in my mind after McDermott said we have 5 quality OTs and we'll see what happens with that in the upcoming weeks.

  2. I think Tony Romo is the perfect example to combat this argument. Last I checked Romo is White and for the longest time he was bagged on for being a choke artist who couldn't win a playoff game. The media, Cowboys fans, and NFL fans would laugh at the idea of him winning a big game for years.

     

    Taylor gets bagged on because he throws for 182 yards a game in a league where Average QBs(Dalton) can throw for 300 yards on any given Sunday. He gets bagged on because he never can get the Bills over the hump in close games besides 2. The Dolphins game last year and the Titans game where we won 14-13 and had more to do with the defense than his performance.

     

    He's absolutely right. This team could be 5-0. 5-0 if he could have put up more than 3 point against the Panthers. 5-0 if he could have put up more than 6 points when the Bills D gave the offense multiple turnover opportunities and short fields.

     

    People on this board would bag on any QB like that no matter the color of their skin. For the longest time people bagged on Chris Kelsey because he was a below average football player who made a great deal of money and didn't deserve it. He was White.

     

    Truth is Bills fans speak it like they see it. Taylor isn't gonna get us to where we need to go. That's why they want to move on.

  3. So let me get this right and I am not taking a side. I just find it ironic is all. Football players want the right for freedom of speech and to peacefully protest about inequality which the players have a right to do as long as their workplace is okay with it( already established that it is)

     

    Jim Kelly, voices his opinion, which happens to be different than what the football players and organization are doing. Football players are now coming out against Jim Kelly's right of free speech calling him out for trying to rip the team apart.

     

    If you want equality and understanding, you have to be understanding to ALL people's opinions even if they aren't in alignment with yours or this whole thing is a waste of time

  4. Reread the post guy.

     

    WHEN WOODS AND SAMMY WERE BOTH ON THE FIELD.

     

    Still what does Tyrod have to do with trading away Sammy? Nada, zip, zilch.

    Oh the caps lock, you Taylor lovers are something else. The guy sucks. You put a QB with Jordan Matthews and Zay Jones they'll look a lot better too. Real QBs make the NFL. We can all sit here and talk about the ****ty play calling etc, we haven't had one good offensive mind in the last two decades? I find that hard to believe. We've been missing a QBand guess what we still are

  5. Can we stop with the bashing of the offensive coordinator? I mean it's crazy that we haven't been able to find a competent OC in the last 17 years. I mean probably has nothing to do with the crazy amount of bad Quarterbacks we have had here.

     

    It's not Dennisons fault much like it wasn't AVP, Turk Shonert, etc etc. Get a QB and all of a sudden the OC will look better

  6. The 1992 home opener against the LA Rams. The Bills decimated them and Steve Tasker knocked out the Rams punt returner. That was also the game James Lofton became the all time leader in receiving yardage. It was also my first ever home game.

     

    There are a couple of games that really stand out as terrible home openers but the one I also remember was the 2007 home opener against the Broncos. The Bills were now 8 years from their last playoff birth and Jay Cutler was a rookie. The Bills were leading 14-12 late in the game and the place was absolutely rocking. Jay Cutler gets sacked on 2nd down and throws the ball behind him with less than 2 mins left and it goes out of bounds setting up a 3rd and 20 something. He throws an absolute laser to a Broncos WR and they end up driving down the field and kick a Jason Elam game winning FG to win 15-14. The worst part is it immediately started raining after the kick went through and the game ended

  7. Here is the thing, I don't think McDermott or Beane care what the locker room thinks about what they are doing. So this players point means nothing.

     

    They are in the process of turning over this roster already and in two years the vast majority of this roster won't be here. I mean look at all the possibilities

     

    Tyrod Taylor-def gone

    Shady McCoy-good chance he's gone in two years

    Charles Clay- above average chance

    Richie Incognito- prob gone

    Jordan Mills-gone

    Kyle Williams-gone

    Lo Alexander-gone

    Ramon Humber-non starter or gone

     

    This team will be remade for good or bad and most of the locker room they are supposedly upsetting won't be here so the point is really mute

  8. I want the Bills to win a SB every year but I also realize we don't win that SB without a QB who plays at a high level consistently.

     

    I love the people who think this team is close to coming to being a playoff team. This team will finish somewhere between 4-12 and 6-10. This is for numerous reasons. First year coach and his system, a brutal schedule featuring said great QBs, and an overall lack of talent on the roster.

     

    I have watched this team waddle to no playoff appearances with top rushing offenses, top defenses, and great special teams play over the course of 17 years. There are two reasons really why we haven't been. We lack a difference maker at QB and the team in our division has one of the greatest of all time. IDC what it takes, find the QB and the rest will fall in place

  9. People are so desperate for the playoffs that they want to keep this together for one more year to see what happens. Tyrod Taylor is an average starting QB. Not great not terrible.

     

    This new regime by all accounts was ready to let Taylor walk to sign Brian Hoyer if he didn't agree to their terms. Taylor bit and did the deal. This staff has zero intention of keeping Taylor beyond this year whether it means drafting a guy in 2018, going with Peterman, or signing a vet.

     

    If Sam Bradford can fetch a 1st and 4th round pick than Tyrod Taylor can sure fetch at least one high pick. Jacksonville, Denver, and Indianapolis would seem like likely options if they go in that route.

     

    I could see the roster transformation continuing and Taylor and Ragland seem like the most likely to go

  10. They have about 4-5 write ups on Ragland and if I remember correctly they were pro Rags articles. I was against the pick before it was made. I'm not sure if I have gone through the most recent one. I like Erik, I think one of the articles was written by someone else.

     

    If you have the link please send me the one you're talking about.

     

    I remember the mega thread where 90% of the board loved Ragland and wanted to draft him in the first round at 19. Then people went in hysterics when the Bills traded up for him in round 2. There was a small minority, including myself that were getting bashed for saying that Ragland was too slow and he would be terrible in coverage and was not worth even being drafted in the 2nd round. I for one wanted the Bills to draft Darron Lee.

  11. I still don't like bringing back guys. I'm sure they are thankful for their jobs back and won't hold ill will but a house cleaning is supposed to be just that. These guys have been apart of some miserable drafts and their opinions and reports are valued by higher up people in previous regimes. This is why I don't understand bringing them back

  12. Jordan is a downhill runner who needs to be in a pro style offense. UB forced him to run shoulders to the sideline too much last year.

     

    He was also behind a pretty young offensive line that struggled last year. Above average hands in the passing game.

  13. Just found this Quote from Juju Smith-Schuster

    https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/04/14/juju-smith-schuster-2017-nfl-draft

     

     

     

    Apparently he's a cold weather prima donna

    I know most people will take this as a joke and say ah who cares I like JuJu.

     

    I wouldn't draft him based off of that. That's info is serious when u talk about a WR catching the football in the cold. It also might give an insight into a guys plans after his rookie deal. He also reminds me way too much of Robert Woods and that is not a good thing. I want someone who is more dynamic as a WR.
