WideRightRevenge Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Just got this week's copy of Sports Illustrated which is it's NFL Preview. Pretty telling commentary on Tyrod in the Bills team review page. Only strengths are Deep ball and elusiveness. Quoting here ... "Weaknesses include accuracy at the intermediate levels and inability to anticipate open receivers (he's a see it and then throw it type) and discomfort in the pocket when his first read is not there. But Taylor's biggest flaw is that many times, even when his early reads are open, he doesn't get the ball out." Conversely from what I saw preseason .. Nate appeared to be a good antidote to many of these shortcomings.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Ignore RushX like the rest of us!He won't. Do as I did and put him on your ignore list. I did months ago and what a pleasure it has been. should of been pretty evident given all the discussion regarding him this off season. 6 days I thought we agreed it was 8 days!?😜
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) I thought we agreed it was 8 days!? don't confuse me like that. some where along the line I lost a couple days, lol Edited September 2, 2017 by DaBillsFanSince1973
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 We all want Taylor to succeed. Only the Champions of Taylor believe he will become something he isn't. I'd love for him to prove me wrong but I think we already know what he is. don't confuse me like that. some where along the line I lost a couple days, lol Must be an internet thing as a thread was titled the same.
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) Must be an internet thing as a thread was titled the same. actually it's just that I'm an old bastard that seems to lose or gain a day and some weeks seem like 6 days, others 8. where did the 7 day week go? Edited September 2, 2017 by DaBillsFanSince1973
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 actually it's just that I'm an old bastard and some weeks seem like 6 days, others 8. where did the 7 day week go? I get it.My work switched to a 9 - 80 work week with every other Friday off.
billsfan60 Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 actually it's just that I'm an old bastard that seems to lose or gain a day and some weeks seem like 6 days, others 8. where did the 7 day week go? The 7 day week has taken its participation trophy and gone to its safe place. When I reached "old bastard" status my wife took away my watch, put all the kids birthdays in her smart phone and took down all the calendars. Amazing what you see and experience when the outside world doesn't rule your life. On a side note try living at the western edge of the eastern time zone. Every 10 minute drive results in being either incredibly late or incredibly early for something.
Figster Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 There is approximately zero chance barring injury that Peterman starts over TT. I love what he did. He really looked surprisingly calm and in charge as a rookie. But do people even realize that he had a 54% completion which is lousy, 5.74 I think ypa which is lousy, 1 TD which isn't great (although it was a great pass), did not fair well under pressure, had a 75 passer rating which is lousy, didn't complete one pass over 22 yards which is scary since that was his Achilles heel? He looked good at one third of the QB duties. How about a comparison of T T's preseason and N P ? Who is looking more comfortable in the Dennison O with the eye test?
26CornerBlitz Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 How about a comparison of T T's preseason and N P ? Who is looking more comfortable in the Dennison O with the eye test? WGAS about preseason when we haven't seen the offense they're going to run in the regular season. OBTUSE!
Figster Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 WGAS about preseason when we haven't seen the offense they're going to run in the regular season. OBTUSE! Preseason is about working on parts of your game that need work. Taylor is not performing well from the pocket...
26CornerBlitz Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Preseason is about working on parts of your game that need work. Taylor is not performing well from the pocket... There wasn't much of a pocket to perform from against Philly and he was out too soon against BAL. Looked okay week 1 against MIN. At any rate, we'll see how he looks in the actual offense next Sunday with the assumption he's recovered from the concussion.

DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) WGAS about preseason when we haven't seen the offense they're going to run in the regular season. OBTUSE! I see you're still getting worked up about the QB situation. how do you know what they didn't show in preseason they were actually practicing, which I'm sure they were and I'm sure you're aware of. that means peterman, who I'm sure has been getting reps with the ones with taylor still not cleared to play in the opener, will be running those plays that were not seen in preseason in game one. has taylor been cleared yet? no will they have peterman ready by preparing him for the opener? yes bottom line and why some are calling for peterman rather than taylor is because while peterman looked good running those few vanilla plays in preseason, taylor looked lost and way out of sync with the same vanilla offense. in a word he looked like crap. with just over a week before opening day and drawing closer, it could become a reality that taylor does not start week one. I will be supporting peterman with hopes he can manage the offense and lead them to victory? Edited September 2, 2017 by DaBillsFanSince1973

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Yes Denison and Beane and McD have all talked about what worked and what didn't work in preseason Beane also started Nate was playing much better than expected. That in and of itself may lead to Nate playing sooner than expected when TT shows is in a real NFL game that he doesn't fit the offense.
Figster Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Because Dennison and Beane have talked about it. Pay attention. The notion any HC or GM would telegraph to the fan base/public the possibility of making a change at the QB position before its made is not the way its done. Why divide a locker room. You get that right?
