Augie Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 It’s a throw away question. You never know what he might blurt out. What we learned is Tyrod isn’t quite that stupid. 1
GunnerBill Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 The contract he is on now is the bridge contract right in line with what Sam Bradford signed for when the Eagles were taking Wentz and what Glennon signed for when they were taking Trubisky it is the right market for a Quarterback a team believes can play but are not committing to (obviously the Bears now know Glennon can't play). 3

sven233 Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 (edited) Look.... I like Tyrod Taylor......the human being. Not a fan of him as a starting NFL QB. Honestly, he's the perfect backup QB to have in the league. Someone that can come off the bench and hold down the fort for a few games if necessary. But, as a full-time starter, he's just not a good enough thrower of the football to win a championship in this league. That said, I don't blame him for not wanting to take a pay cut. That's fine and he shouldn't have to. He was given a contract and should't have to give it back. That said, he is not an $18 mil a year QB. I can find a lot of QBs in this league that can throw for 150-180 yards and 0-1 TDs per game. In fact, I bet most of these first round rookies will be able to do that. So, yeah, if I can find a rookie or a journeyman QB that can put up the same stats for bargain contract, why pay a guy $18 mil to do it? So yeah, if he wants to stick to his guns and not take a pay cut, that's perfectly OK. He's earned that right and I respect that. However, I really hope that it's another team paying him $18 mil to play. We know what he is and he's not close to being good enough to win a championship. We don't need to tie up that much money in cap space for an "average on a good day" type of QB. It's time for Bills fans to want better than below average to average. Let's try an get a guy in here that can actually throw the ball and play the QB position in a passing league. top settling for QBs that lead you to a 30th-32nd rank offense and try to find a guy that can potentially be a top 5-10 QB in this league.

Expand Exactly, he can get 2 years and $20M guaranteed somewhere as a bridge guy. Maybe somewhere like Arizona? One of the places that drafts a young guy that will need some time (like Allen).
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 It’s easy to say that now. Wonder if he looked around and realizes this would still be the only place that might let him start...he might change his tune.

YoloinOhio Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 Remember the time Tim graham asked EJ after his rookie year on radio row if he thought the Bills should draft another qb in the 1st? 2

Expand Agree. TB has a higher celing than Tyrod. Tyrod is a better QB at this point in time tho. TB has to be the most over hyped QB with a bad TD INT ratio. Watch him play. Hes not that good. His potential made him more valuable than TT but the injury cancelled that out. I dont want either of them starting for us next year. If i had to pick a poison, id stick with Tyrod, this is his team, the players respond to him, you could see that during the NP SD debacle.

Steptide Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 There is no way he's the starting qb for the bills next season. NO WAY. how many more games with 165 yards and 1 TD can we take? Not happening. Thankyou for all your hard work Tyrod, but the bills are going to go in a different direction
