2020 Our Year For Sure

Great point.

For me its even simpler than that: he's bad and he knows it. I wanted to believe in Tyrod and did for a long time but I'm not going to believe in a guy to come through with huge improvements when he doesn't seem to believe in himself. I think the consensus on Tyrod will continue to fall until he's considered a bad starter / strong backup. That puts his value well below his cap hit and calls for a release. Just my take, Marty, I'd rather Romo or Foles as the bridge guy and run a more well-rounded, more modern offense, supporting Shady and Mike with a legitimate passing attack, getting more out of Watkins and Clay.

He put up good stats in Roman's training wheel offense, no arguing that. His stats are better than his play because the numbers don't record all the open receivers he fails to see, and the plays he can't execute. Also, I said today, with the league having seen Tyrod for 2 years, not his first season. Kaep and RG3 also had strong first seasons running around.

I hope you have a pleasant Sunday.

Tyrod stares off into space on the sideline in the 4th quarter losing a close game. He can't lead because he isn't seen as good at his job. His receivers are visibly frustrated with his inability to deliver them the ball, putting their hands out and palms up indicating they're wide open. Sometimes when he actually sees his wide open receiver he still misses the throw for no reason. And rather than betting on himself and going after a legitimate long-term contract, he signed his bridge deal, predicting ahead of time that his play was more likely to drop off than to improve, and he was right. Tyrod himself and his teammates know he is never going to win a Superbowl as a starter. Time to move on from Mobile Trent Edwards folks, this guy was made to be a backup quarterback and he knows it. Let his eyes glaze over as he stares into space on someone else's sideline in the 4th quarter. I think Watson is a better QB today.

In limited action Foles looked good again last year in a system similar to ours, for a coaching staff which included our new QB coach. Tyrod Taylor is not very good. He refuses to release the football multiple times every single game and regularly fails to even see wide open receivers. He is incapable of going through progressions quickly, and regularly delivering the ball on time. There is a chance Foles in the right system could outperform him.

Good! Take a shot.

I would say he has upside but not as high as guys who are more accurate. Seems to be something that doesn't tend to improve drastically.

Great posts here John, I couldn't agree more! Get a damn quarterback already. A team has to be freakishly good to win big with a Tyrod type, if its even possible. I don't understand why folks are happy with mediocrity at such a critical position. Keep doing your thing Ryan L

Funny

It can work- people actually liked Batista for a minute because HHH went over so much. Brady and BB will put someone over on the way out.

They book well. Dusty Rhodes would be humbled

Not great but better than Tyrod. Not scared to throw the ball a la Trent Edwards

Embarrassing couple years. Just glad its over.

Good with that. Its funny you say CoT because it reminds me of the Church of Trent, and if I have one word to describe Tyrod I go with Trentative. Don't mind bringing him back if that's what they wanna do but be aggressive about getting a highly regarded prospect onto the roster.

Agree with this, and cut Easley

Draft one high and move up if you have to. QB is the most important so be aggressive

^That is what I'm most excited to see, this defensive line back to abusing quarterbacks and taking over games. The last two years were brutal.

I'm fired up. Go Bills!

Yes I am, Marrone is responsible for Schwartz being here. Marrone also had his team as a whole disciplined and ready to earn their checks and compete every week. Less penalties, less injuries, more honest effort, harder practices. From the 36!

what is really the difference between #2, a short-term rebuild for 2018 vs. #1, win now in 2017? Do you have examples in mind of transactions/decisions that would be handled differently between the two? Either way you're coming back next year with Shady, Watkins, Dareus, Hughes, Incognito, Glenn, Dareus, Darby, Clay, etc., and either way you're looking to draft a QB this year. Tyrod could justifiably stay as a bridge or be replaced by a different vet in either scenario, no? I'm probably overlooking something. We are locked into a lot of big contracts though.

He made Marrone look good, which is sickening to me because I don't think Marrone all that bright or all that good of a football coach. But Marrone utilized the beast front four and got turnovers, and had his team prepared for its own schemes and playing hard every week. I think If nothing else we can get back to those basic things with McDermott and we'll be better for it.

Deleted that one when I realized I was re-opening a can of worms. that was something I admired about him with the Jets, he divided his locker room and failed but at least he went down with his ship no matter how ugly it got.

Thanks for posting this.
