That isn't going to help much - doesn't look like ther is a great QB prospect in this draft.

There is still time this season for Tyrod Taylor to begin looking more like a NFL starting QB, but he his first two games have been anything but promising. The Bills are likely headed to 0-4 and targeting a high draft position. We need to hope that Taylor rights the ship because there does not appear to be a future good NFL QB in this year's draft. I don't like Chad Kelly much and DeSaun Watson has not looked good so far completing only just above 50% of his passes.

I think Roman became Ryan's first scapegoat. He had to fire someone to rachet the heat down. I think much of the offense's problem is that Tyrod Taylor has been exposed as someone who has some definite strengths but also some significant weaknesses that, so far, he hasn't shown that he can overcome. I don't know that firing Roman helps this at all.

I have to agree with this as well. Gilmore was certainly not aggressive tackling.

The defense is missing too much talent at this time and they are trying to count on their DBs to make up for the losses in the front 7. Trying to cover weaknesses creates weaknesses elsewhere. Missing: Dareus - their best defender Shaquille Lawson - 1st round pick who was being counted on to help a lot Ragland - 2nd round pick counted on to play a big role Aaron Williams- is playing, but hasn't been his old self due to injuries. Any defense that is starting Worthy, Alexander and Spikes/Zach Brown is going to be in trouble.

I agree. The biggest problem is that the franchise hasn't been able to find a great QB. Without a great QB, every other part of the team needs to be excellent and that is hard to do. A great QB can cover some weaknesses at other positions.

He was the alternate to the 2nd or 3rd alternate. Not many players actually want to risk injury and PLAY in the Pro Bowl. Taylor exceeded our low expectations last year, but he did not have a legitimate Pro Bowl season by a long stretch

I am not really suggesting that the Bills should make the same mistake with Taylor that they did with Manuel, just pointing out the disparity in how both fans and coaches appear to be treating the two.

I agree completely. Bruce Smith was absolutely great!

Love it!

I remember watching him when I was young. He was a very good news person for a market the size of Buffalo.

Is that Irv Weinstein in your Avatar?

Reich was my next choice. Lamonica was more for entertainment value. I think push to shove, I'd have really picked Reich.

Come on, it was third and a foot. Not much chance of stopping them even if Dareus was there with Ray Lewis behind him.

Daryle Lamonica - with Watkins and Goodwin the "mad bomber" would be great!

Why do we have to give a 6' QB drafted in the sixth round an entire second season to see what we have when the 6'5" 240 lb athlete with a stronger arm than Tyrod was continually yanked with no chance to develop? I am not arguing that EJ should play (yet) - I think that Marrone killed his confidence and for sure EJ struggles with accuracy on some inexplicably easy passes (screens and anything on the run), but Manuel has more prototype physical talent by a long shot and was kicked to the curb. Why does the undersized Taylor deserve better after that fiasco?

After yesterday, I am not sure I would put Tyrod in that category. I like Taylor, but he was as ineffective as EJ ever was. If that was EJ yesterday there would be death threats today, yet many still have a lot more patience with Tyrod.

You might be being generous calling him middle of the road. Midling QB play would have won today's game. Even Fitz never laid an egg like that.

They were still in the game. The Bills never threatened all day. It appears that Taylor has been exposed. I hope that isn't true, but fear that it is.

800 yards is half a season's output for Taylor at this pace.

Well Tyrod most assuredly did not deliver in any way. Gonna be a loong season that hopefully ends with us getting a real NFL QB in the next draft.

That might be the last TD For a while from this offense.

Our luck: best available QB will be Akili Smith bad!

.Well, they will have tomorrow off, so what will change with Tuesday and Wednesday's coaching?
