C.Biscuit97 Posted December 7, 2016 Posted December 7, 2016 i give TT a ton of leeway. I tell him to go out and go out swinging and that its his job the rest of the way but that he better throw the ball and be decisive and that you are ok if bad things happen but that you want to see him make good things happen. that you would rather see the ball come out on time and into a tough window than to just sit on it. either he can or he cant. i wouldnt hang on any one game or throw -- but if after a couple of weeks he is mostly bad in that situation than you move on. Agree. I loved the way they started the Raiders game allowing him to pass. I've said all along I don't want to pay a guy who the team tries to limit the amount of times he passes. Pitt has a weak secondary. Make some big throws TT!
xsoldier54 Posted December 7, 2016 Posted December 7, 2016 Serious question. If I'm Rex Ryan, I have to know that my job is on the line here. For me, if I'm Rex and I see dancing in the pocket early when the pressure isn't there, if I see staring down his receivers, if I see wide-open receivers open and TT not even checking his 2nd, 3rd reads, I'm benching him. Give EJ a shot. At least we know EJ can throw over the middle, and he doesn't dance to the ghost music like TT does. EJ may not be as accurate downfield like TT, but I think he makes up for it with his accuracy over the middle and short to intermediate routes, where TT always seems to overthrow the ball on those type of routes.. I want to see EJ, I've seen enough of TT this year, I want to see if EJ's light has turned on. With me? Let's go streaking.. Tim- It makes absolutely no difference who plays QB this week. The Bills have once again played themselves out of a playoff berth. The only sensible move would be to give Cardale Jones some PT and prepare for next year. But of course Rex has already stated that there is no way he sees the field this season. Hopefully Rex will be gone by next year and we will find a coach that actually has some clue as to how to prepare a football team to win games.
CardinalScotts Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) Tyrod plays the whole game he needs to continue to get better. Impossible to do if he doens't play and Rex's job is not on the line after 1.5 seasons thats what ****ty organzations do. Bills in 4 in a row why cant we believe the Broncos lose to KC and NE? and Miami loses to NE and Buffalo ? I dont get it Edited December 8, 2016 by CardinalScotts
TSOL Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 Tyrod gets the rest of the season, no matter what, for me. He started this season, let him finish it. Hoping he lets it all hang out, hoping to see him play ONE GAME where he looks like a passer for four quarters.
BillsFan130 Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) I think Rex and Tyrod are tied together so nothing will change. Rex isn't going to ditch him now. If rex is fired, taylor is gone next year, if rex is kept, i think they bring taylor back Edited December 8, 2016 by billsfan11
bigK14094 Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 Well, TT starts until maybe the last game...which will be a preseason like Jets game. Lets give Cardale some time then. EJ...he is the past and will not be on this roster next year. (don't slam the door on your way out) Cardale may be the future.....but, so is TT. I think TT has improved this year over last, and will do it again in his 3d year as a starter. Now, the money thing is a problem....and Whaley was the guy who negotiated the Bills into this situation. (he was an EJ guy until Rex brought in a legit alternate TT) don't know how that plays out, but, TT will make 18-20 mil somewhere next year, I am not worried about him finding work. I think the Bills have to stay with him imho.
vincec Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 I think we've seen enough of EJ, thanks. Tyrod's the guy for me until they're officially eliminated. Then maybe work in Jones for a series or two per weekto get him some game experience.
jaclynrea21 Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 His presser this week didnt give any love for TT. He wouldnt throw him under the bus yet wouldn't step in for him either. I think he knows he and TT are in trouble. He sounded like a spoiled little brat
BarleyNY Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 I don't think that he thinks his job is on the line. Even if it is (I don't think it is either) ... so he'll play his starter. Can't see the hook coming especially with who is behind him. This. If and when Bills are officially eliminated from playoff contention I'd like to see some of Cardale, assuming he is at all ready. Even some time against the Browns to get his feet wet would be nice. EJ is done here. No need to trot him out on the field.
1st Ammendment NoMas Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 hopefully not enough rope that he hangs himself and his team. I say short leash and if he sucks, give EJ a shot. At this point everything is on the line and we need to do all we can to win this and get momentum for the next three. It's not about a player, it is about seeing who can give us a spark on offense and carry out drives.

The Jokeman Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 This is Tyrod's team until the end of the season. The only way I don't play him is if he gets hurt. I say this and I don't like him but I don't see what starting EJ or Jones does to benefit this team either this year or the fourth coming years.
jr1 Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 It would rule if Cardale showed up for the Bills game in his Ohio State uniform

I want to see EJ, I've seen enough of TT this year, I want to see if EJ's light has turned on. With me? Let's go streaking.. Tim- At this point with the team months ago not picking up EJ's 5th year option. He is simply a footnote in the long list of Bills QB busts. He is not a guy Rex wants, he sucks. There are 4 more games the Bills need too evaluate Tyrod on. The FA options are almost non existent for next year. Mostly a collection of guys like EJ. In other words bench warmers. If the clown bros. stay another year so does Tyrod IMO. There is simply no realistic option out there. The Bills are not savy enough to get a Prescott coach him up And win in his rookie year. The past 25 years prove it. Jones is a long way off. He has been inactive the entire season for a reason. EJ is done in Buffalo. the team know what they get with EJ. And it's actually less than Tyrod.
papazoid Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 play TT til we are officially eliminated. play EJ never !!...complete waste of time, he sucks and is gone next year. play Cardale after elimination AND only if coaches think he's ready. otherwise wait til next season.
ChanOverChin Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 Give me a break. This thread is a joke. TT will be the Bills QB for the rest of this season. Rex's job is not on the line. If the Bills beat the Steelers it's a whole new ball game for the Bills. This is a winnable game with it being a home game for the Bills.
BuffaloFan68 Posted December 8, 2016 Posted December 8, 2016 I would have Tyrod on a short rope - if he playing as poor as he has the last couple of weeks, I would bench him at half time. If Tyrod doesn't show drastic improvement between now and the end of the year he may be the one leaving Buffalo and EJ re-signed.

I say this and I don't like him but I don't see what starting EJ or Jones does to benefit this team either this year or the fourth coming years. If the Bills are eliminated from the playoffs, you don't see how playing Jones benefits the team in forthcoming years? How does continuing to play TT help them this year or in forthcoming years>
