Deranged Rhino Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 I am really glad I have been way too busy lately to be joining in these TT/ANTI TT debates. Were about to find out how this is gonna turn out.......
transplantbillsfan Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 You putting words in my mouth is by far more pathetic... that is not what I said and you are full of it. STFU. Oh, so when you said "so close to Peterman starting Week One!!!!!" you were saying that because you actually thought Peterman almost won the #1 job and you weren't mourning the almost injury that kept Taylor out? My bad... football is 10 hours away!!!
billsfan_34 Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 He is a low end starter and a very good backup. Not much variance in our analysis- he certainly wont take us to the holy grail.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 What? I'm saying Rex and his lazy half assed coaching !@#$ed up a potential great season. They had PLENTY of talent that year and had a QB emerge. Who? Taylor is garbage
Nanker Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 http://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/index.ssf/2017/09/qb_coach_david_culley_says_buffalo_bills_cant_wait_to_unleash_tyrod_taylor.html The offense will not look like it has in preseason. Book it. Highlights: "He can't wait to unleash it," Culley said. "And let me tell you this, we can't wait to unleash him. We're excited about Sunday with him. He can't wait. Again, talking about the preseason and maybe his struggles, we never saw it like that. We saw him as he's trying to get better at things. He's still learning a different offense. He's still learning how to be more comfortable in the pocket, and he did all that stuff. So we're comfortable with the fact that he's going through the process.

grb Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Taylor provides stability at the QB position. He does not turn the ball over. He may not win you a lot of games, but he won't lose many either. And because of his "unique attributes" (legs/deep ball), he puts up points. He does not look conventional in doing so and clearly has challenges as a passer. But we coudl be much, much worse off. The talking heads see him as "underrated." I would not be so quick to run him out of town, even if we pick one QB high. Number 1 pick QBs flame often. I will never understand why it is either (from the lovers) "one more year and he will develop and be our guy" or "he will never be a franchise quarterback and has to go." I don't know that either is true. Two years of evidence proves he is responsible with the ball and will get you some points. Like any position we should always be looking to upgrade. That doesn't mean a hard-working team player like Tyrod needs to go. if we had a decent defense either of the last two years we produced enough offense to make the playoffs. This makes a lot of sense. Two years of evidence says that he might squeak into the playoffs IF the Bills have a historically good defense. Taylor is the NFL's version of Spud Webb - an over-achiever who gives you hope in individual games, but is clearly not good enough to win in the long-run. The Bills could have easily "squeaked" into the playoffs the last two years with slightly better play, a few less injuries, and flipping a close game or two. They don't need a "historically good defense".
BringBackOrton Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 I guess we still gotta keep waiting.
HappyDays Posted September 10, 2017 Author Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) He had 19 pass attempts at the end of the 1st half. That's more than he usually had the past 2 seasons. Slowed down in the 2nd because of our 2 score lead. He obviously looks much better than he did in preseason because they're mixing in some runs and letting him scramble. Let's build on it.

RalphWilson'sNewWar Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Needed win and Taylor held it together with a few nice plays. But this game could have been from 2015 or 2016. Nothing "unleashed" and outside the legs nothing elite. Seeing what Washington did with a Playoff QB in Cousins...I see Buffalo drafting a QB basically no matter what.
run dat back Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 I know it's a tough decision to accept but I do trust McBeane on this. Sammy did not fit the culture they're trying to build. He complained publicly to the media about his targets and talked about raising the bar for receiver contracts. That's not the type of player McBeane wants here and he has injury issues that are possibly going to creep up again. We're going to play ball like KC did yesterday I'm guessing. Run the ball, short passes, go deep a couple times a game. It is a recipe for success and we save a ton of cap space since we don't have to pay Sammy that money. Depending on how Jordan Matthews and Zay Jones do I think Tyrod will be fine. And there was that time Sammy trashed the "little people" fans, to boot. Kinda glad he's gone.

Same old Tyrod , we aren't going anywhere with him.
Arkady Renko Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 He looked like good 2016 Tyrod. This game showed that they were holding him back to work on some things in the preseason.
BuffaloBaumer Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Same old Tyrod , we aren't going anywhere with him. Yup, this offense sucks and honestly, being at the game, it felt like a loss. I have never felt so ehh after a win.
JM2009 Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Same old Tyrod , we aren't going anywhere with him. He did fine. Esp with this WR corp. The CBS guys said after they don't understand why TT doesn't get more credit-everyone of them. It's a part of his own fanbase that thinks he is terrible. Yup, this offense sucks and honestly, being at the game, it felt like a loss. I have never felt so ehh after a win. They still had 400 yards of offense. What were you expecting-there is no deep threat on this roster.
Bangarang Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 He looked like the same QB we've gotten the last 2 years. That's not necessarily a bad thing but it also doesn't get me excited to have him beyond this year.
bobobonators Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 He did fine. Esp with this WR corp. The CBS guys said after they don't understand why TT doesn't get more credit-everyone of them. It's a part of his own fanbase that thinks he is terrible. They still had 400 yards of offense. What were you expecting-there is no deep threat on this roster. Bills fans are ridiculous. TT wouldve had 300 all purpose yards and 3TD and 0 turnovers if Clay could catch a ball. But yeh, thats average around here. Nothing special at all.
LeGOATski Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 He did fine. Esp with this WR corp. The CBS guys said after they don't understand why TT doesn't get more credit-everyone of them. It's a part of his own fanbase that thinks he is terrible. They still had 400 yards of offense. What were you expecting-there is no deep threat on this roster. The Jets were taking away the outside, anyway. Forcing Taylor to step up and throw down the middle. Gonna see a lot of that.
Crusher Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Usual TT...nothing new, and nothing that tells me that he's anything more than what he's shown. We beat a poor team at home with Shady leading the way along with the D giving up a mere 12 points. Not much else to add, honestly. On to next week...
Fixxxer Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 He looked like the same QB we've gotten the last 2 years. That's not necessarily a bad thing but it also doesn't get me excited to have him beyond this year. this, pretty much.
