Wayne Arnold

They have.

He has to attempt the throws. If the wide receivers aren't good enough to bring them down then it's on them. Eating the ball and taking sacks - that's on Tyrod.

You throw to the receivers you have. They tried. He wanted out.

McBeane aren't dumb enough to trade picks for a running back. I'd rather they either give Banyard an opportunity or sign one off the street.

This new girl Kimberley Martin is something. Refers to Newton's inane statement about scaring people because "they haven't seen nothing they can compare me to" - as if the men who came before him like Warren Moon, Randall Cunningham, Doug Williams, Steve McNair, Donovan McNabb, Mike Vick, etc. never existed - as "truths".

Let's be honest - Winston is a terrible quarterback.

Bolt didn't actually win those races. That was just everyone's misguided and prejudiced perception because he's black.

So you don't consider Tyrod to be exceptionally athletic but is instead just unfairly perceived that way because of his skin color?

But Dennison has made adjustments and modified his system. Out of the 24 run plays on Sunday, they ran just four outside zone runs. That's a drastic change from the first two weeks of the season. Because these players suck at it. Everything else was a power-trap or counter-trey run. That's an adjustment. They have elminated the three-step drop which is a huge Shanahan/Kubiak/Dennison staple. Because Taylor sucks at it. Again, that's an adjustment. Players have to execute better.

Disappointing comments.

Admin - please move this thread to the other one. It was created while this one was being drafted.

Interesting comments originally from a Buffalo News interview. "(Criticism) is always going to be twice as bad just because of who I am - an African-American quarterback. Look across the league, man. We're held to a certain standard. We almost have to be perfect." Taylor wonders why black quarterbacks are labeled as "mobile" while white quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers and Derek Carr are considered "pocket passers" despite often using their athleticism to extend drives. "Even though they're 'mobile' guys, they don't necessarily take on the same criticism as others. It probably is unfair." Thoughts? http://billswire.usatoday.com/2017/10/14/bills-tyrod-taylor-believes-hes-held-to-a-higher-standard-because-hes-african-american/

Did you somehow expect the new offensive coordinator to run someone else's system? I don't follow your logic here.

When the offense needs an air attack to lessen defensive pressure off of the running game Tyrod cannot elevate his game to accomplish that.

The Ravens finished 2016 ranked 24th in DVOA Offensive Efficiency, 21st in rushing. The Ravens are currently ranked 24th in DVOA, 17th in rushing So from 21st in rushing to 17th. We're supposed to cry about Roman for that. For the record, I appreciated Roman's scheme. Thought Lynn did a good job filling in. But we saw that offense at its peak, it was going nowhere but down even if someone Roman or Lynn was able to be retained.

Shaq might be the only good draft pick Whaley ever made. And Rex probably begged him to do it. Otherwise he probably would've picked Laquon Treadwell or Christian Hackenberg or something.

Tyrod looked like a rookie last Sunday. I have no reason not to trust your info. However, I still expect to see Peterman starting on 12/10 vs. the Colts at the latest. I can't imagine a first-round QB, Peterman and Taylor all being on the roster in 2018.

But then we wouldn't be treated to such awesome takes like Walter Powell being released is evidence of a tank.

Humor me. What did they say?

Now is the time that teams have to knock the passion out of Brady. Hit him hard and land on him with all of their weight. If it costs a few 15 yarders then so be it. Big picture. Have him come home to Giselle in so much pain she'll be demanding his retirement. "It's football or me. Your choice."

Peterman is a gamer. I couldn't care less about two week old practice rumors.

Bucs have the 6th best rush defense in the NFL. I'm sure our OLine will have an easy time with Gerald McCoy, though.

Peterman will be starting at some point this season unless Taylor makes a miraculous turn-around. Then we'll see if he has what it takes to be a Week 1 starter.

The odds are heavily stacked against them. Obviously the division is off-limits as long as Brady doesn't tear an ACL. The Wild Card will require 10-11 wins. In order to win 10-11 games, the following must happen: (1) The defense's key performers - Hughes, KWill, Lawson, Brown, Lorax, White, Poyer and Hyde - must remain healthy (2) The OLine must start geting better with the new blocking scheme ASAP and maintain that improvement through the season (3) Jordan Matthews must get back within the next 2-3 games and stay healthy through Week 17 (4) Shady must stay healthy (5) Charles Clay must get back within the next 4-5 games and stay healthy through Week 17 (6) The light must go on for Zay "Hands of Stones" Jones (7) Tyrod Taylor must start trusting all of his receivers and himself and stop holding onto the ball for so long (8) Dennison must implement the read-option OR turn to Peterman if Taylor can't get the job done (9) If Peterman starts, he must be better than his draft position If all of these things happen, I can see the team winning 10-11 games and sneaking into the playoffs for a one-and-done appearance. Otherwise, it won't. Yeah, McDermott is the stubborn one in the wrong here. Maybe Dareus should get his fat butt motivated and earn more playing time. And Miller has been terrible.
