I reckon most of us could make pretty educated guesses. There is one that I have heard too doesn't get on with McDermott and doesn't get on with Frazier. Not sure it needs a brain surgeon to work out who and I am guessing he is on your list Kirbs

 

Darby. That one is obvious. Sammy and Marcell are pretty safe bets too.

JERRY? VONTAE?  SHAQ?

Former disgruntled guys dislike HC who let them go isn't that big a deal. As to who doesn't like playing for McD now...it ain't K. Williams, Hyde, Poyer, White, Edmunds, or Phillips. Not Allen, Benjamin, Dawkins, either. 

 

So if the issue is that guys like McCoy or Clay or Washington don't like the staff, who cares. They aren't in the future plans anyway. Good riddance imo.

I'm going to have to be on tyrod's side. Many called him a class act while in Buffalo, screw it. Let em know the Bills coaching and personnel and EJ investment was annoying. Every time he didn't play the quarterback play dropped immensely. He's aware of it.

There was also a reason for Tyrod to be benched, as was said in other posts, that he was fully guaranteed for 2017 season if he was injured, and since the Bills weren't sure if they were keeping him yet, they decided to protect themselves and bench him in a meaningless game.

And ya don't think that pissed off Tyrod? That's even worse haha

Why can't our coach try to get a long with people? I thought that was their job description.

It's the business.  Everyone on earth anticipated he'd be benched for that reason.  

 

And there is no such thing as an "immense drop in QB play" from Tyrod Taylor.

Like 3 pick 6s from EJ at Jags in London or Peterman at Chargers? It happened more often than not. He knew he was the best Quarterback and didn't like getting benched.. human nature. It's a low bar but competitors don't want to get benched when they see their backups fail miserably

 

A business sure? That's Bills doing their thing. And that's alright. But I wouldn't begrudge Tyrod for playing on a team that was doing it's damndest to see if they had somebody better and let him go

ACTUALLY being benched and having your replacement suck is the optimal scenario. It shows that they made a bad choice and  you can be appreciated differently.

Instead of listing the easiest poor performances by other Bills QBs, give me a list of Tyrod's great performances.

 

I'll start:

 

2015 @ Miami

2016 vs. Miami (loss)

 

Dammit.  I started and ended the list.  Oops.

Sure that's what happened.. until he got benched again. And the team made clear he wasn't desired. 

 

Like is it optimal for Tyrod in the playoff race to see his backup lose? No he wants to win, he was getting pretty aware of his (lack of) appreciation

No, not Whaley. It is a few players, some that are there and some that are gone. McDermott doesn’t have buy in from everyone. There are some guys that HATE him.

 

Interesting.  Can you say who, that's still here?

I'm saying it's a non story, we needed a better QB, which we never had at the time. And Tyrod is being human expressing his frustration at Buffalo's disorganization.

If you want to celebrate that Tyrod Taylor did better than his backups, then have at it, my friend.  I want better and the day he left, we got better.

Cmon Tyrod quit talking trash. The bottom line is Tyrod three for 56 yards against the Saints in an emabarassibg QB display seen in years. That’s why he got bench. Bottom line. 

 

Amazing how everyone forgets how bad he and the offense looked the two games before the benching.

I'm defending against our silly outrage. Who cares what he is saying.. I'm saying he's probably right and agreeing with you we... Probably didn't get better but did need to move on lol

You do know he was talking about 2016 and not last season right? 

Both where the same reasons...tyrod wasn't going to be the guy because he isn't good enough, so they wanted a look at somebody else

His benching in 2016 was a sound business decision.  Everyone, including him, should have known that.
