Yes we know you want the Bills and more importantly Tyrod to be awful...... We get it..... And LAC and their pedestrian offense after the last two weeks is the best in the league. Often changes week to week and frankly the OC better be ready on Sunday. As stated I was completely off the Bills to start the season seeing what they did to the offense. In all my years (since 1972) I had never seen a new coach & FO come in and basically announce they were tanking (yea yea they never said it), just made moves that direction. At 4-2 I started wondering and at 5-2 I was ready to buy in (though still pissed at what they did to the offense). So yes I want Tyrod to play well on Sunday and the team to turn around on D as NYG has (so yes can happen).

That's why the salaries for head coaches are millions. Trying and failing shouldn't be encouraged...that's the reason for firing people. If you're fine with failure, then that's a "you" problem. Again.....you have to TRY in the first place in order to succeed. This isn't really hard.

OldTimer1960 Posted November 24, 2017 Posted November 24, 2017 3 hours ago, section122 said: I really thought Peterman's performance would humble a few of the so called experts on the board. I always see how the national guys have no idea about the Bills and how wrong they will be. Then they are right. Every preseason it's the same thing. Every media member crushed the Bills for the move to start Peterman and they were right. The issue to me is that most fans ONLY watch the Bills and highlights of other teams. Tyrod is clearly a middle of the road starter. It is inarguable at this point. Yet to some they will trumpet their uninformed opinion and bash others as uninformed. It's interesting if not frustrating. I respectfully disagree with "middle of the road starter"'. I have a lot of respect for Taylor - he works hard, seems to be a leader and has maximized his talent. However, we saw last offseason that the line of NFL teams desiring him to be their starter was 1 deep (Bills). He is certainly good enough not to be an embarrassment as a starter, but his passing is very limited. That really isn't good enough if you are trying to be a serious threat in the playoffs. The Bills do not have a dominant defense and they have won zero game because Taylor carried them to victory. The way the defense is playing, the coaches did not think Tyrod could keep up on offense, so they took a chance on Peterman. That failed, but those portraying that the Bills would have beaten the Chargers "if only Tyrod had started" are wrong.

However, we saw last offseason that the line of NFL teams desiring him to be their starter was 1 deep (Bills). Riddle me this: if the line of NFL teams desiring to sign Taylor last offseason was 1 deep, why did the Bills renegotiate prior to the new league year? Why not cut him lose, let him explore that 0 deep line of alternatives, then resign him perhaps on better terms? The Bills contract offered him $15M this year and $16M next, but the length of the contract was shorter - maybe Taylor desired that? 3 hours ago, Tatonka68 said: How many garbage time yards and TD's will Tyrod post to make his dwindling defenders and fans happy? Dude, I commend to you the Two Bills Drive "terms of service" which prohibit something called a "crusade" Roughly speaking, a "crusade" is a single opinion or theme, repeated over and over and over and over again in multiple threads by the same poster.

Taylor's contract represents what the leagu thinks of him - it is stop-gap starter money. Look at the 32 starting QBs in the league and see if you can find 10 that you would pick Tyrod over. Keep in mind on young guys like Mariota that they may improve, whereas after 7 years in the NFL and 2.5 as a starter we have likely seen Tyrod's best or very close to it. To be clear - I respect Tyrod Taylor and acknowledge that he is a decent stop-gap starter. That isn't anything to disparage, but any team in the league that has Tyrod would be really looking for his replacement. Edited November 24, 2017 by OldTimer1960

I will say this: any QB looks better with a well-designed run game, talent at wide receiver, and a stout line. Eli Manning's stat line looks like crap this year. I watched the game last night. His wide receivers can't seem to catch a cold, and it's crystal clear at times they're not running the routes he expects. Belicheck** would throw their asses off the team and keep bringing in scrubs until he found some that could 1) catch 2) run routes to where the QB expects them to be. Taylor's contract represents middle-of-the-pack starter money, as I pointed out in another post. Whether or not you're trying to replace him as a team, depends upon your vision for the team's offense. Certainly, Dennison seems to be trying to replace him, with McWrestler's buy-in 1

My thought on this is that they didn't really believe that they have a competitive playoff team this year to begin with, so they are installing what they believe will be a more typical NFL offense vs one that would maximize Taylor's skills and de-emphasize his weaknesses. I don't think it is a conspiracy to make Taylor look bad. If they don't think that Taylor is the long term answer, then it makes sense not to tailor the offense around him for short-term gain. Taylor is a bit unique - he has some skills, but not ones that fit a normal NFL offense. If they ran the offense around Taylor's strengths this year, there would be little carryover to the offense that they will run next year with a different QB. if they believed that Taylor was a long-term answer at QB, they WOULD design the offense around him.
