Bleeding Bills Blue

All i did was add the numbers together to compare tyrods numbers to bridgewaters... but i get your point. Tyrod is terrible.

yeah... thats like... your opinion man.

yawn... no stats or argument needed. Ur opinions that good.

What is your argument? Teddy Bridgewater is better because Tyrod runs the ball too much?

The steelers were 2-6 last year when outgained on the ground. Neither does passing yards... yards is the only thing that theoretically matters. Good third down efficiency will lead to more plays, which will lead to more yards. More first downs = more plays = more yards.

Lol - ok...

I dunno - seems like a good solid up and coming GM. How can you rank GMs based on rosters they didn't assemble?

Dick Jauron... what did you expect? To be fair - that 2008 Patriots team had a top 10 offense and defense without Brady. I know I don't remember Cassel going 30/43 for 415 and 3 TDs... but he did.

Yeah - at this point... don't be a jerk (RG3) and try and get that charlie whitehurst money (http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/charlie-whitehurst-3537/cash-earnings/)!

Dude the last year they had brady and missed the playoffs was 2002.

Bridgewater had more TO's, more sacks, fewer rushing yards, fewer TDs in his 2 years starting vs. Tyrod's... I get it - he was a young raw rookie, and he showed some improvement from year 1 to year 2. Problem he's run through his rookie deal, and he lost 2 full years where he could've improved. He's still young, but now he's got a bum knee.

Yup... 2 certainties... the patriots will be good. The browns will be bad. I don't care who they drafted, when you have a bottom 3 offense and defense the year before, you are not close to being good.

I worry about the positive weed test. Had enough with the Alabama lazy asses.

Teams change from year to year. Typically a good team is still a good team a year later. But Carolina was 15-1 in 2015, and 7-9 in 2016. So Atlanta being an unstoppable juggernaut doesn't hold water to me. They lost their O coordinator... that will have an effect.

I still don't like.. fear him. He's... alright i guess? Lousy in the red zone. Mediocre on 3rd downs. Still never led a team to a winning record, nor played in a playoff game. Hasn't even made the pro-bowl in 6 years playing (And everyone says its not hard to make it anymore...)- missed another due to ACL. Missed time in 5 of 7 seasons. Has shoulder, knee, and concussion issues.

Contract is certainly cheaper, but i think Tyrod is a better player.

I think Tyrod improving or remaining the same is the difference between 6-10 and 10-6. If we finish 10-6 then he likely had a helluva year.

28 touches over 16 games is a pretty small sample size. One of them he got hit 5 yards behind the line of scrimmage, and right out of a hand-off (http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlights/0ap3000000767053/Jonathan-Williams-fumbles-recovered-by-Sheldon-Richardson).

I root for them what seems like every year - my wife is a patriots fan. She roots for the bills when i bring her to bills games (unless they play NE).

The way I look at it - there are a ton of areas for improvement. We need to be able to run a no-huddle offense. We need to be able to pass on 1st downs and consistently gain yards. We need to scheme to get people other than Watkins open. We need to have a bigger route tree than like... outs/hitches/gos. We need to be able to utilize play action. We need to be able to run more plays from under center. We need to run screens to help with pass rushers.

You'd be cutting it close. My sister-in-law left in the 3rd quarter and was super early, so it'll be tough to find a sweet spot. That was also the game where they "ran out" of coffee. And we got smoked by NE.... what a day!

Yeah - that call is the kind of thing that irks me. How can they not have like... a guy in a booth to overrule a terrible call like that?

He's more of a gamer than like 90% of the team too, plays hurt, puts in the work, and wants to be great. I don't know how good he has to be to "turn the corner", but if his last start was any indication. Maybe he has a bit? He still needs a ton of work on window passing, and timing passing, but it looks like he's willing to put in the work. Easy guy to root for. His last start FWIW - 26/39 329 and 3 TDs, another 60 yards rushing. The team had 30 First downs, and he led a 4th quarter comeback. 8-18 on 3rd down as well...

The issue was the predictable nature of our run attack in that game. It was so obvious on 1st down that we were going to run. We came out swinging in that game, and just wilted so horribly. Siemian - more yards passing, more passing attempts, slightly better YPA, fewer sacks. Tyrod - More yards rushing, Better completion %, more total TDs, 11 more sacks, but for only 5 more yards, fewer turnovers. Siemian had quite a few games with a ton of attempts, and didn't really have great numbers. 30/50 for 230 and a TD? 17/43 for 183 and 1 INT? gross.

I mean - seattle and MIA-2 come to mind. MIA1, OAK, PIT, NE2 were all not even as close as the scoreboard indicated. However, win the seattle and miami 2nd game... and the NYJ game has actual ramifications.
