the vikings went 11-5 with teddy passing for 14TD's last season. In a division full of passing offenses. Thats one 🤗

Isnt that what theyve already been doing for decades?

I really like those blue SD unis 😍

What exactly do you think teams do when coaches review film with the players? No one is saying the mistakes were OK.

I went back and looked - colin has never faced rex as the starter. SF faced rex back in 2012 when Smith was the starter and the 49ers destroyed the jets. Colin had one pass attempt that game. 0-1. I said it way back in either this thread or the other thread out on here: id prefer Gabbert was the starter. Kaep starting his first game after half the country blasted him and playing well is how I see the storyline going. It's like an Alanis Morissette song. Fml. Contain Kaep. Bring pressure up the middle. Contain hyde. Win turnover battle.

Good post. Thanks for the work. The drop by Woods on that slant is what annoyed me the most all day: 1. You are now the best wr on this team. Catch that ball thrown right to your hands. 2. He couldve probably gained 20yac on that play.

Its a mixed bag really. Some good. Some not so good. Its also just 5 games so far this season. On to SF!!!

Yup. Agreed. I wanted to get the stats for 3rd down % converted on passing plays (as opposed to a failed run attempt) and the red zone scoring for passing (as opposed to a rushing td). But i couldnt find them.

Wtf are people drinking up there in buffalo?!? You realize that through a sample size of just five games Gabbert has 4 MORE INT'S and 1 LESS TD with almost the same attempts. Not a season. 5 games. Imagine TT throwing 4 more INTs at this point and one less TD. What do you think our record would be? But sure other than that little fact, their numbers are pretty similar. COME. ON. MAN!

1. We are tied for 14th in TD. 2. We are 25th in yards/attempt. 3. We are 21st in completion %. 4. We are tied for 5th for fewest INT 5. We are 9th for red zone scoring (td only) 6. We are 26th in 3rd down conversions. 7. We are 7th in total QBR. We are last in yards bc we have the fewest attempts. Simple math. Room for improvement? Sure. We just changed coordinators and we are down our best WR.

Yes they do. A big boost. This offense was designed to be run first with an occasional big play in the passing game. Watkins provided that big play ability. Over the course of an entire season we're going to feel it. Unfortunately, i dont think the solution will be found during the seasom from the outside. Powell, Goodwin, and woods are going to have to step up. And TT is going to have to build chemistry with them on the deep ball. Who knows about Hunter. I hope, but im objective. We need a WR in the draft or in FA. Badly. Who knows if watkins will ever be the same.

They moved to the "we need to get rid of TT and get a 'franchise QB' ". Fire everyone. Always something. 🙄

I like TT as our starter and for this current team. But i do agree that the best time to look for anything is when you already have it. Of course, the only exception being your wife. Hahah 😁

People keep bringing up how we rank dead last in passing. Questions: 1. Where would you expect a team to rank when you have the fewest pass attempts in the NFL (counting teams who have played all 5 games). a. And why do we have the fewest passing attempts? Bc - listen in - WE ARE REALLY GOOD AT RUNNING THE BALL. Our HC loves to run the ball. Our offensive coordinator is a former running back. Our GM was a defensive player in college. There is nothing about this entire regime, from top to bottom, that screams: lets air it out 40x a game. 2. Do we rank dead last in yards per attempt? 3. Do we rank dead last in passing td? 4. Do we rank dead last in completion %? 5. Do we rank dead last in red zone scoring % ? 6. Do we rank dead last in 3rd down conversions? 7. Do we rank dead last in turnovers? No. The "last in passing" theme is simply idiotic. There are areas we need to improve withing the passing game overall, but that argument is weak.

TT has also been the QB when the Bills score 25 or more points 3x and still lose. 2 of those 3 losses bills scored more than 30 or more. Isnt it the norm that when any teams defense has an "off day" you likely lose? If the league avg is 22.8 in scoring and your defense gives up more than 22.8, odds are not in your favor to win. Your numbers say that. So whats the surprise?

Shady's fumble in the red zone mustve helped us then with that logic. The chiefs game is the only game where TT has started amd the bills had a lead at halftime and lost. The only game out of 19. Someone shoulda told TT and watkins when they were lighting up the field not to score yet. Dont score! Bobby wont like it.

Lmfao. So you want him to put up 500yds passing and 6td vs the chiefs in arrowhead.?!?!? Im using the ignore button for the first time ever on this board with you. Congratulations.

Vs the chiefs last yr he had 291yds passing +40yds rushing and 3 passing td's with 0int. (He did lose 1 fumble)

I get what you're saying. Anyone and everyone can and should continue to improve, especially TT. My main gripe is people claiming that he is not a "franchise" qb (whatever that really means) and we need to find a replacement. To that all i have to say is at least give him the season before one makes that determination. Because it has been a season and a half for him and he does have a winning record. A Buffalo QB has a winning record over 19 games and 2 offensive coordinators.

He'll change his username. They all will. Its sad when you root for a team and you get happy when a Bills player has a down game just so you can run to TSW and say how right you were. They get more joy in being "right" than they do in watching the bills win 3 in a row.

The Seattle Seahawks finished 26th or 27th in passing 3 years between 2012-2014. Look how that turned out for them. Their highest rank was last year when they finished 20th in passing. And it was their worst yr in the Wilson era. Not saying we are as good as seattle. But our philosophy is similar. Yes we need to be more consistent in 3rd downs. TT Hhas played a season and a half basically. He has won. Hes on his 2nd coordinator. Lets see how the season plays out.

😂😂😂 Where will chips landing spot in college be next season? LSU?

I can make things sound fancy too: Tyrod has not lost a game where he has a lead going into the 4 quarter. Tyrod has lost 1 game in 19 starts where the bills have the lead at halftime (vs the chiefs last season). 11-8 as the Bills starter. Winning football.

Rex was hired as a HC and knowingly brought Roman here just b/c we had EJ and TT here? ok...not b/c that's the STYLE OF FOOTBALL he likes? Roman was one of Rex's first hires. Tell me, who did Rex and co. draft the first year he was here? Exactly. And who did they draft this past year? Exactly. Smash mouth, defensive football. That's what they drafted. Where is your gunslinger QB that Rex so desperately wants and needs? Fact is this regime has had more than one opportunity to go out there and draft a QB and turn this offense into a passing attack - they haven't. Rex and this regime hitched their ride to TT for a reason. The fact that you can't understand the basic tenet behind Rex's coaching philosophy after all these years is disturbing. You seem to live in a fantasy world where Matt Ryan, Rivers, and Brees are going to super bowls every season on the backs of their 450yd passing performances. They're not. I know what a good QB looks like, but more importantly, I also know what a good team looks like. We have a philosophy in place, which is more than can be said for the majority of teams around the league, and that philosophy doesn't involve airing it out. Come to grips with it, for better or worse.

Keep telling yourself that. That's exactly what this coaching staff is known for: the aerial assault, 400yd, 45 attempt games. If Rex and this regime wanted to throw it 45 times a game, they would've gotten an offensive coordinator in here that has offensive gamelans designed to throw it 45 times a game. They would've drafted a QB to throw it 45 times a game. They would've made it their mission to get another QB in here that can just stand back there like a statue and throw it 45x's a game if that's what they truly wanted.
