TSOL Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 (edited) Huh? its not an argument, it's two questions. Based on the poster who I replied to responses it seems he is. I'm not getting too deep into the debate, most seem to think TT is leaps and bounds ahead of EJ, I do not. I think EJ's better. I'm most definitely excited to see our Offense perform against the two AFC CC teams these first two weeks. We are going to need to see them score early and often to win.

1billsfan Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 That's fine but Rex Ryan and the Buffalo Bills think Taylor is better for the team. Taylor is going to play. Wouldn't you hope he plays well? What good would Taylor playing like crap do? So EJ could play? If Taylor plays bad that could mean losses for the team and could mean a ruined season. There is no point for fans here to trash EJ any longer. If they do, it's probably because they feel vindicated that their guy won the job and it's safe for them to resume the bashing. If they feel safe bashing Manuel (who I feel is the best QB on the team), then they should expect the heat to be turned way up on Taylor. I was fine with Taylor being the starter, but I'm getting kind of ticked off right about now after reading a few posts that got under my skin. I don't see why they want to stir it up right now when everyone was ok and willing to give Taylor a few games. I want Taylor to perform well, but he's losing his cache with EJ supporters like me because the haters can't seem to help themselves.

Rex and Whaley ain't gonna pull him for EJ barring utter collapse. Those pro football guys would rather hang themselves in their bedroom closet wearing women's lingerie than admit they are wrong. It's TT or bust baby!

metzelaars_lives Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I can't believe there are posters on here who have the gall to think that they saw enough and know more than the Bills brass in terms of who should have been named the starter. I pay pretty close attention to this stuff guys. Everyone on planet Earth had EJ behind Cassel and Taylor in camp. Everyone. In the preseason, I think Taylor showed the most. I think EJ played great but I think Taylor was even better. Most everyone agrees with this as well. There has been a HUGE buzz throughout the NFL surrounding Taylor all summer. It was a relatively easy decision for the coaches. I'm not sure what some of you are missing here.
LeGOATski Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I can't believe there are posters on here who have the gall to think that they saw enough and know more than the Bills brass Actually...that's pretty normal around these parts.

There was a lot of buzz around the NFL about Bob Griffen a few years back as well. Not knocking TT, I see a lot of QB qualities in EJ. Ill be all in on TT once we win with him.

I'm a Bills guy, however from WHAT I'VE SEEN, EJ played the best of the 3 QBs. I didn't go to camp and I wasn't in the QB room with the QBs and coaches. However, Tyrod is the starter. Cool. Go Tyrod !! Go BILLS !!
jeffismagic Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I'm an EJ guy. I'm also a Tyrod guy. They both play for the Bills, showed well, and still have upside.
Wayne Cubed Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 Wow, this has gone full Rob Johnson vs Flutie.

I pay pretty close attention to this stuff guys. I do trust Rex and this staff...At the same time I took some heat a couple years back when I came out against Marrone early...So...We'll see... You're on a Buffalo Bills Message board...Most people here pay pretty close attention to this stuff...

That's fair, you seem like a reasonable poster to be honest. I just think it's a little ridiculous if you guys are nitpicking at Taylor all year and acting like a mistake by Taylor is a victory for the EJ supporters when that is the guy who EJ could not beat out in the first place. If Brian Hoyer falters that doesn't mean that Ryan Mallet is good or would be any better.

You're on a Buffalo Bills Message board...Most people here pay pretty close attention to this stuff... I don't know man. Regarding camp, after it became clear that Manuel was a distant third, you still heard a lot of "I can't keep track, one day Cassel was the best, then one day Taylor was the best, then one day Manuel was the best..." on here.

Taylor brings high energy to the offense, looking forward to seeing production from our Big O!

If Brian Hoyer falters that doesn't mean that Ryan Mallet is good or would be any better. If you don't want Taylor nitpicked then I suggest you and others stop the Manuel bashing. BTW, there is nothing fair or reasonable about you framing EJ's preseason as having "had a very nice two quarters of a preseason game". This place is well-known for it's season-long heated QB debates, I'm surprised you guys want to take it there so soon.
metzelaars_lives Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 That's because that was the narrative of the practice threads! You clearly haven't kept up as much as others on here. Also, Trapasso said EJ wasn't clearly third. He also said he wasn't thir only one who thought so. Stop saying EVERYONE said EJ was a distant 3, it's a lie. Yes, you are correct. That was the narrative of the practice threads. It was an incorrect one. Chris Trapasso said he didn't have EJ third. Did he give an order? So one guy. Did he attend every practice? I would say everyone who was there for the entirety of camp had EJ a distant third. Sal, Joe B, the Rochester guy, the Syracuse guy, John Murphy, Mark Kelso, etc.
Nanker Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 You're the only one I've read that is even talking about this. Hang it up. He's a very divisive poster. "Us" Vs. "Them" type of crap, post after post after post. Nobody has a legitimate right to have an opinion that differs from his. Have pity on him, he's boorish and can't help himself.
