harv shitz Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 I am starting to seriously question the Pegulas. They have take two professional sports teams, that were at least close to average, and made them both the worst team in their respective leagues.

dgrochester55 Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 (edited) Tyrod was a mediocre quarterback, but mediocre is better than bad or off the charts terrible. Yes, Allen was drafted, but you always need a good backup option with a rookie. Buffalo could have kept Taylor but decided to trade him out of nowhere. They at least signed McCarron which would have been a credible replacement, but traded him. They instead went into the season with a rookie who everyone universally agreed needed to be brought in slowly and a second year 5th round draft picks who's primary experience was the 5 INT debacle. They are lucky to even be 2-5 and I would be surprised to see more than 4 wins. Taylor and McCarron aren't world beaters, but I am certain with them that Buffalo wins at least the Houston game and maybe today's too. Beane and McDermott had a very successful year one, but made some God awful off season decisions. I would like to see at least this year and next year before a regime change is done, but something has to be done to change how decisions are made when acquiring players and choosing who to keep.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 At this point I wouldn’t even care if we traded for Tyrod. This is just so hard to watch. At least the nostalgia might be fun for a few weeks. 1
Kevin1778 Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 Tyrod sucks. He would do nothing with this Offensive Line. Without Incognito and Wood he would be even worse than he was last year in his stellar 50 yard passing performance.
The Firebaugh Kid Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 Ty provided stability. I miss stability....but JA will be fine. Let him learn.
Norcalbillsfan Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 If we had tyrod, would our offense be better? Probably. But would he alone taken this offense and won the games we lost? Texans maybe, other than that no. With this offense tyrod isn't taking us to the playoffs, I think few QBs could.

Get on board and enjoy loosing and pretend draft position is more important than winning. Your kind of logic is the kind that keeps you between 7-9 & 9-7 quite a lofty goal....

T master Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 Right now Tyrod looks like a all pro compared to what we have seen this year & hopefully this coaching staff can learn from their mistakes & take it forward ! The handling of the entire QB thing from Tyrod to AJ to Petermen To Allen to Anderson has been a cluster F !! Sometimes jumping to quick can be a terrible thing & in this case it has been !! But there's always next year !! I think McBean are on the right track but just as you have bumps in the road for rookie players you have some for rookie coaches as well hopefully it will get better !!

mrags Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 7 hours ago, TigerJ said: I will agree, the offense was horrible today, but I believe it would absolutely be a mistake to blow up the team. McBeane made the decision to try and find the QB of the future and find some lynchpin pieces to the defense. That decision made it necessary to try and use bandaids to hold the rest of the offense together. Mistake? You can debate that. Maybe Buffalo should have tried to build more of the support pieces into the offense better offensive linemen and receivers, and maybe had a little more youth at RB. I don't think there is a clear answer yet. The jury is still out on Allen. I don't know if signing Derek Anderson will pan out, but I wasn't expecting an awful lot ten days after coming off the golf course. I think maybe the losing is leading to the expectation of losing. That makes it harder to overcome. It is going to continue against New England next Monday night BUT, I think McDermott knows how to coach and get his players to perform. I think Beane will address the offense in a major way in the offseason. I think Josh Allen is going to get a lot better next season. And I think Brian Daboll can be a creative offensive coordinator when he has some talent and experience to work with. Firing the coach in my thinking is a guarantee to continue nearly two decades of futility, and the biggest mistake Terry Pegula could make with this team right now. Except McD is a terrible coach. Beane is a pretty terrible GM. Daboll is definitely a terrible OC. And none of them will amount to anything. Terry and his husband Kim are terrible owners that constantly make bad business decisions in everything they do that doesn’t include oil, fracking, and making suckers out of every fan of Buffalo sports. 1

How does anyone know this? Is it because of the WR he has as his QBs coach? Is it because of how he has been lighting the league on fire up til his injury? He was supposed to be the QB that would need the most coaching/development in order to have a chance to reach his potential and be a franchise starter 51 minutes ago, Fred Clause said: Your kind of logic is the kind that keeps you between 7-9 & 9-7 quite a lofty goal.... 7-9 & 9-7 would be a huge upgrade How are those browns doing since their first win in over 2 years? You don't just magically go from drafting 1st overall to SB contender unless you already had a good team in place and the 1st overall year was because of some fluke injury that cost the team

The last two rookies to start games for the bills at QB. So we have no idea he if he is going to be fine.

I honestly didn't think it was really possible for a collection of professional coaches & players to perform as poorly on offense as they have this season. Beane & McDermott deserve to be fired at the end of this season. It was actually a good thing to have a QB not throw interceptions. They kinda hurt your team when your QB throws 2 or 3... or 5 a game.

I do not understand the lynch mob mentality with the current state of the Bills. Yes they suck. But this is what we expected. Let 's power through this year and save our pitch forks and torches for next year if they do not show significant improvement.

We were 9-7 last season, was it necessary to bottom out now? I understand Richie and Wood were unexpected, big losses, but every other issue is self inflicted. We didn't address our deficiencies on the O-lIne, we just made them worse by trading Glenn. We didn't do anything to improve our WR situation either. I don't understand the need to totally bottom out before trying to be a good team. 1
ghostwriter Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 Realistically with Tyrod we'd be in a better situation, Josh Allen already got hurt, nearly had to have Tommy John surgery mind you and this is our 1st pick in the draft. Some say you dump Tyrod and pickup a new guy, that's just silliness we already had a capable vet on the roster. Too bad. 1

It was expected that we would suffer through one difficult year. The brain trust did not want to get involved with any new long term contract this year. That is why we suck.
