Also, it's very importnant that a rookie QB starts and takes his lumps early to grow from them. Tyrod has had enough lumps for a lifetime. Again, ignoring the money and whatever crazy stuff needs to play out for Tyrod to be our starter next year, if Tyrod is starting and our Rookie isn't it's because the Rookie isn't good enough (yet).

And that's horrible. Wentz is better this year because he played last year. I want to develop our QB. I'm okay with a down year with a QB who grows on the job. Every team in the NFL does this. Relegating TT to Glennon-status (overpaid backup that nobody wants starting) is an absolute waste.

Apologies, from what I quoted you stated he would be starting next year in front of a rookie. I don't want that at all. Don't want my rookie learning how to take a 15 yard sack every 10 plays
Xerx Posted December 27, 2017 Posted December 27, 2017 I've supported and cheered for Tyrod and still will until he's no longer a Bill, but I'm ready for a new quarterback. But let's not spew riduculousness -To further highlight this point, there is a metric called "Aggressiveness/AGG%" where Tyrod is ranked 32nd. Aggressiveness rating is defined as "the amount of passing attempts a QB makes that are into tight coverage, where there is a defender within 1 yard or less of the receiver at the time of completion or incompletion. AGG is shown as a % of attempts into tight windows over all passing attempts." He's in the same area range in that stat as the top QB's...If you are near the top of the AGG% board, you are a most likely a TERRIBLE QB. This tight window BS is ridiculous, you want QB hitting OPEN receivers. You shoudn't need to force throws into tight windows anymore than 15-18% of the time. Anything above that is terrible decisions, poor receiver seperation and bad schemes. 2016 https://nextgenstats.nfl.com/stats/passing/2016/all He's in the same area of the chart as the Brees, Roesthlesberger, Rodgers, Brady's of the world... 2017 https://nextgenstats.nfl.com/stats/passing/2017/all Again same are of the chart as the top QB's Tyrod doesn't throw to guys who are open in the seams or on the outside is the issue. This stat does not show that It's not tight windows per se, it's the into space windows. He can't hit a TE with passes over a LB head and before the Safety in the seams, anticipation throw into the window. The window is large, it's just there for a limited amount of time. It's all being ON TIME with the BALL Last thing I want is a QB forcing throw after throws into coverage. Unless it's to Benjamin (who we've not had very long) no receiver on this team has shown ANY ability to catch a contested ball ever. 1

Wentz is better because his team went out and got Alshon Jeffrey, Torrey Smith, 2 OL, and Blount, and then traded for Ajayi too.

Or it is because all the money being spent on Tyrod is the big reason to play him, fans not willing to let rookie learn and a locker room pushing for the veteran Tyrod that has been friends with them for so long. Keeping Tyrod will hurt more then it helps IMO. Edited December 27, 2017 by xRUSHx

That helps too. But he worked on his throwing motion, his sloppiness that emerged later in the year in 2016, his wind up and point of release, etc etc. It's not just the players around him. It's tape and an offseason of work on what you see on tape. Why should we make TT Mike Glennon 2.0?

If the rook is good everything and everyone will be fine. If the rook isn't good, people will blame everything else possible until the rook proves they aren't good.

Were they paid Tyrod starter pay? Or did they come in on much cheaper contracts so it was much easier to move on from them. Did those two QBs have a locker room willing to not play as hard for the rookie QB so the HC has no choice but to play the veteran? Edited December 27, 2017 by xRUSHx

They got rid of Hasselbeck the season before and rode with "inferior vets and a rookie." The NFL has the blueprint. Get some cheap vets who have starting experience and are known factors. Draft a rookie. Start the rookie unless he pukes on his shoes, or is grossly unprepared. Start the rookie anyway after you start 0-4 or whatever. Next offseason, sign WR and OL talent to build around him. Win football games. 1

That simply doesn't align with reality. I'd wager that no more than 4 QBs from this draft, more likely 3, go on to a better career than Tyrod. And I think highly of this QB class.

IMO if Tyrod is here next season it is because he is going to be the starter, too much money and too much support from other players that will ride or die with Tyrod only. I did not know Flynn was paid so much, did they have a out in his contract to dump contract or trade? Eitherway Flynn did not have the same support from other players on the team he just got on over the support our current players have with Tyrod that has been here with the last staff. IMO players will stick by Tyrod just like some did with Mario and it will create a cancer the same way.

There’s only about 10 guys on the planet who can play this position and compete for championships and Tyrod isn’t one of them. This is the real point. Those top QBs who are already identified are locked up. Those who aren’t identified yet, are on the fringe or are good at only a few of the key things are what’s left for the have nots to work with.
