I have a been a pretty staunch Tyrod supporter, but this loss coupled with this injury make it the end of the line for him. 

 

It gives the coaches and management an easy answer regarding the QB decision for the rest of the year:  "Taylor is not 100%, so are going with Peterman."

 

Won't matter if Taylor is 0% or 99.9%, they have talking points to move on from him.  

 

Ready to see what Peterman can do with a full week of snaps in practice. 

He had a full week of snaps before the Chargers game.  I guess he can only go up from there.  It doesn't get any worse.

Since we still aren't out of playoffs and there is a real possibility of getting in at 9-7, we gotta go balls out for wins. If Hotrod's knee is ok, he plays. Still gives us better shot that .40% completion percentage Peterman.

 

Once we're out, put Peterman backin if you must.

I would say:

 

1. Bledsoe

2. Flutie

3. Fitzpatrick

4a. Taylor

4b. Orton

 

The "best since Kelly" narrative is both wrong and pointless. If you don't lead us to the playoffs it doesn't matter anyways. There have been several games in his career here where the defense stepped up and Taylor was lost. It seemed to happen the most in big games. I have very few memories of a Taylor leading the team to a defining victory. 

If you start with Bledsoe go back and look at his Bills career. He’s no better than Losman and company. He might not be top 5.   You couldn’t be more wrong.

Flute I can potentially agree with. Fitz is a no but would be right after Taylor/Flutie. Orton would be next.

 

Taylor hasn’t been the problem for 2.5 years and people treat him like he is EJ. That’s why some of us defend him. The Bills aren’t very good and haven’t won a game without him since he got here. Wanting to upgrade is okay but to say that he is worse than Bledsoe?!? That’s just wrong.

This is why I hated the decision to bring Taylor back 

 

BB clowns him with ease.       Such a flawed passer.

Have no problem going to Peterman the rest of the way and still have no problem he started the Charger game.  In Tyrods defense though they don't really cater to his strengths here.  One of the few pluses about Rex

None of that matters. He's in the exact same camp as Losman, Bledsoe, even EJ... he did not lead us to the playoffs. He's simply not good enough.  It's time to move on. It doesn't matter to me where you want to rank him.

I am realistic though.  This is the end of his career in Buffalo.  

Haha... who actually admits they are a “Tyrod Fanboy”?

Bledsoe was terrible save for a 10 game stretch...he really started going downhill after that...couldn't get out of his own way many times...

It was over already, somehow you just didn't realize it.

I lived Fitz too but side-by-side there is no comparison. Fitz made too many mistakes. 

Fitzs mistakes = Tyrods lack of taking chances

Not of fan of either of these QB’s.

 

With saying that, Taylor will be starting against Indy if he is physically ready.

 

That would be an error of epic proportions.

If Peterman starts the rest of the year I'm fine with it. I think if Taylor is healthy, then they should start him to keep us in the playoff race. If not, I'm genuinely curious as to what Peterman can do with these next 4 games 

 

I agree but I think Peterman will be a very solid NFL QB at some point.

Watch in the off season.  Taylor will be a hot commodity.  Teams value him and can tailor an offense to his strengths.  Dennison did the opposite.  the Bills have the same pathetic offense that he employed in Denver. They won the Super Bowl because of Defense and Manning basically ignored Dennison and ran his offense to the Super Bowl.

spot on.  

Tyrod will not be a hot commodity.

 

I think his days here are done however.  Someone up thread said he won't be able to play next week b/c we went off on a cart.  I agree with that; his situation seems like he would be out multiple weeks.  Once he is out, he ain't coming back in regardless of when he actually heals up.

Once Peterman came in I saw passes getting fit into tight windows, balls coming out quickly and Shady finding running room. Any thought of letting taylor back on the field this year if he's healthy should have died 8 minutes into the 4th quarter.

[Jerome007]

I was on TT's bandwagon and got off too after the two blowouts. And I sure hope the Bills find a replacement. But I still remain in my stance: you don't cut him until you find a better man at the QB position! Period. And as of now, he's clearly #1. It's for the FO to find a replacement. Easy to cut anyone. Not easy to find talent, especially at that position!

The only issue with Peterman is he is throwing to the quick read or the called play and not going through progressions

Might be by design but I saw very little evidence that Peterman was actually surveying the field.

 

I'm all for seeing Peterman the rest of the season hopefully we will see more of that

But yeah, Peterman deserves another look. Weird how he looked decent in his 2 in game action, and sucked as a starter!

Last 2 home games 56 and 65 yards passing 0 TDs and 2 picks and you clearly think he is #1?

3 non garbage time TDs (1 run 2 pass)  in the last 5 games and you think he is #1?

Any street FA would be better.

If Taylor is out against Indy just lets see how Peterman does against them with Webb as his backup.

 

He must put a lot of zip on the ball to get that many drops. Taylor was hurt at the start of the game , he tried to play thru it.

 

The odds of a WC at this point are not good anyway.

I think the kid still has nightmares of the charger pass rush and was determined not to have a repeat. You're right but I think another game or two and we'll start to see him have a better feel for just how much time he really has to get a pass out. It just has to slow down for him a little more.
