Mr. WEO Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I think he has great touch. The play calling was bizarre at times. He will get better with more starts.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I think he has great touch. The play calling was bizarre at times. He will get better with more starts. Â Is that a given?
Mr. WEO Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Â Is that a given? Â It's never a given. But compared to our backup, he's already orders of magnitude a better passer.
Observer Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Â ONE 1st down in the entire first half... On and off the field before you could blink sometimes OR long fruitless drives... Sure it's Roman... However, it'sTyrod too.... How we don't score on 3rd and goal with such a talented QB is inexcuseable... Â Bad first half. Great second half. How they don't roll him out at the 2 is bad play calling. The screen to Williams on 4th down was flat awful.
Augie Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Is someone serious about replacing Tyrod? Brady is under contract. As are the other Pro Bowl QB's. Nothing wrong with Tyrod (in particular), and a lot to like. Plenty wrong with a team that lacks leadership/discipline. This crap rolls up hill.
Rico Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015  It's never a given. But compared to our backup, he's already orders of magnitude a better passer. Amen. I'm more than happy with what I've seen from TT for his 1st 4 starts.
Observer Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Jesus the starting RB averaged less than 3 yards per carry, the line was a hot mess, and he still threw for a TD, had 2 others called back on "penalties" that did not affect the plays, and completed nearly 70% of his passes. People wasting energy criticizing TT should be shot. Â Oh yeah: His star WR and RB were out. Â And his OC made some absurd play calls (a screen on 4th and goal from the 3 with a mobile QB??!? How do you not roll him out?) Â Get a grip people. He played well. Not well enough to win but a darn good performance. I feel like you all need to go look at the history of QBs on this team since Kelly and you'll have a hard time finding a better 4 game stretch for any Bills QB in a long time.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Nice-looking deep balls that any college rookie could make, but that's it... Abandons his progressions, and locks in on one receiver... Roman is NOT innocent, but I Can't justify that kind of performance at home, coming off a div. win... Â Tyrod's leadership is lazy... Throws are not decisive... No urgency getting back to the LOS in between plays... Â He's Michael Vick v2,0... Only Tyrod won't grab yardage with his feet... Poor use of his skill set by Roman... wasted chance to distinguish himself by Tyrod... Seems he's just a backup after all... Yes, he does look like a quarterback who's played in only a few NFL games and never previously started. But he still has shown a lot. So he shouldn't be playing and gaining experience? And who should he be backing up? Oh yes, another kid who's only played in a few NFL games. Don't put it on Taylor. Thus far he's more a victim of poor execution by team mates, penalties, and very erratic coaching.
Thurmal34 Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Amen. Â I'm more than happy with what I've seen from TT for his 1st 4 starts. Â Yep. Other than his 2 quarter brick in the NE game, he's been fine. Gotta let him make his "mistakes" and learn as he goes. Today's loss underscored how much work the Bills have to do on the OL and how much work they have to do in playing smart. Â This is a dumb team.

Typical Bills fan fail... 4 games in, none of which have been terrible by the QB all things considered, and who's first to get chucked under the bus but Tyrod. With today's game plan, god himself wouldn't have made much of a difference.
Buffalo Boy Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 His deep ball sails on too much of an arc and tends to come down nose up. He is not accurate throwing the long ball. He doesn't target receivers in the middle of the field. There don't seem to be many slants but a ton of outs and digs. He consistently checks down, even in situations when it makes no sense. He did't put a single ball into the EZ at end of game. Finally, his best pass of the year was the laser to Woods in the NE game. He doesn't throw many darts. He isn't proving capable of beating quality competition. Next week he should look good beating a bad opponent and all the TT apologists will tell us all how good he was.

Today wasn't. Â Let's let a quarterback develop for us once since 1997 please - warning - it may take more than a full season!
moshermw Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) He was a big part of it. 38 passing yards half way through the 3rd quarter isn't nearly good enough. He's in his 5th year, there is no excuse for that.  ...and how many Giants were missing on their defense? Stop with the excuses for TT, he was really bad today. OK. Couldn't make it to the end of the thread.  The Giants brought pressure all day - that's not up for debate.  So, even a HS OC knows what you do there is:  - Roll the QB out - Screen - quick slants  Roman called NONE of those. NONE. And TT could be the king of the rollout.  We had the ball with 2 minutes to go, down 13 and KNEELED IT OUT before the half. We left all 3 TO's on the board. The second you call any of this insanity TT's fault is the second you are a completely ignorant NFL fan.  There was something bigger than us all making the O play calls in the first half - none of them were real football decisions.  It was so incongruent that the conspiracy theories take hold.  Look up "rules of parlays"  Repeat - we KNEELED OT OUT. Why ? OK.

How about locking on to one receiver. The one play where the camera was behind and above the play showed him look to Clay the whole way. Before blaming everything else except TT, TT needs to look at and use all his weapons. That particular play showed what he does more times than not. That's not good and it's easy to defense.
TallskiWallski83 Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Really? I saw a young QB who's best talent is his athleticism play through an ankle injury. I saw WR's not running routes past the first down marker. I saw receivers struggling to get open with no Sammy on the field. I saw a young QB making his 4th start battle back in the second half. I saw receivers dropping passes and fumbling. I saw an OL struggle. I saw a young QB have 2 fantastic TD's taken away from him by bad calls from the refs today. Â I also saw a QB who was missing his best OL, best RB, and best WR keep fighting all day. Â To dump on this kid right now is just insane. Â Â This. This so hard
Big Gun Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Â Now there are "TT apologists"? After four games? Can we just, for once, give a quarterback a freaking chance here in Buffalo? Â Smarten up.

Yep he was real good today.
Boatdrinks Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Â I think people who know what they're watching out there get this. So many designed routes that were short of the line to gain. Looks like Roman is out thinking himself and trying to count on YAC from his play design. Call routes that get you where you need to be man. Also, occasionally, just let your QB play. Don't game plan him to death. So you know for a fact that the WRs ran those routes to the correct depth?
Augie Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I was also VERY curious about routes run a couple yards short. WHY?
atlbillsfan1975 Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 i am not 100% sure what the problem is. Tyrod appears to be able to make plays with his arm and legs. Roman appears to be able to call a good game/plays. So far it has been a lack of consistency. Tyrod can make all the throws. Cut that crap. This is not Fitz, or any noodle arm QB the Bills have had. Nor is he JP who had a great deep ball but lacked touch. Give Tyrod a little more time. I really do believe he has a bright future.
QuoteTheRaven83 Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I still think Tyrod is the best QB we've had in YEARS. Stick with him and cut him loose.
