SI article predicts a 2-14 record

2-41? -
So, by your count he was sacked 6 times before garbage time (under constant pressure), and still managed 15/22 for 162, 1 TD, 0 INTs. It sounds like you think all 6 sacks are the QB's fault even though it was clear the OL couldn't block in the run or pass game. Taking 5 sacks in a half isn't good, but having your team on the opponent's 31 with 1 minute left in the half down 3 isn't the worst position to be in. The first 3 drives of the 2nd half he was 1/4 for 9 yards. That's correct. Then, in the 4th drive he was 3/3 for 39 yards and had us on the Jets 30 again. If you want to use 4 attempts as a sample size to prove a QB is bad I will prove that every QB to ever play football is bad. Thanks for proving my point. Even through constant pressure and several sacks in the first 3 quarters Tyrod still didn't make the crucial mistake and kept the team within striking distance (because he is capable of performing well when pressured).

No, I posted that in response to another post, and specifically the portion I bolded within it. You skipped that nugget of context and went straight to 'It was garbage time'. So I broke down the game prior to when it was garbage time and eliminated the stats after we failed to keep the game within 10. Also, 134 is not >50% of 285. And you're still conveniently ignoring the simple question. How can a QB incapable of making reads under pressure go 12/19 for 151, 1 TD, and 0 INTs while under constant pressure?

Did any of you actually watch the game? There was no semblance of a run game (because the OL got dominated), but Rico refused to let it go. With 3 minutes left in the first half Tyrod had thrown only 10 passes (7/10 for 69 yards and 1 TD). That's inexcusable when your RBs have combined for 38 yards in that same time span. In the final 3 minutes of the half he was 4/5 for 46, and Matthews fumbled on the Jets 31 yard line with a minute left. So first half he was 11/15 for 115 and 1 TD and the score was 7-10. (7.67 YPA, 117.4 Passer Rating) 2nd half started with 2 runs for 1 net yard and then an incompletion. Next drive starts with a 9 yard completion before McCoy loses 5 yards on a run. After that we're pinned deep and we run for 0, false start to put us inside our own 5, incomplete, and then a scramble just to get us out of our end zone. Next drive (now 7-24) Tyrod starts 3/3 for 39 yards before O'Leary fumbles around the Jets 30 yard line. I'll call it there. That's the drive they needed to keep the game within 10 points with a quarter to go. At that point, he was 12/19 for 151 and a TD. That's good for 7.95 YPA and a 105.4 Passer Rating. If you're surprised that his pass attempts went up when we got further behind in the score then I'm not sure what to say. But with the increased workload in the 4th his YPA dropped some as expected with increased attempts and his passer rating went up slightly. He also finished as the teams leading rusher on just 6 carries. Also, since none of you seemed to pick up on it, the whole point of my post was directed at the false notion that "Tyrod is not able to make a quick read under pressure". If he was truly not capable of such things, he wouldn't have been 12/19 for 151 and a TD. If he wasn't capable of making a read under pressure he may have been 6/14 for 66 yards, 0 TDs and 5 INTs.

Could the Bills be in the market for another VT player?

If he gets a shot anywhere I think it'll be as a transition to a Safety. -

Which Bills Moments Legitimately Made You Cry?
BuffaloHokie13 replied to BuffaloRush's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think it was the home opener in 2015 when Jim Kelly spoke before the game and announced that chemo was successful and his cancer was in remission. My cousin, who is mentally handicapped, had been diagnosed with brain cancer about 4 months prior. His doctors advised our family against letting him go to the Bills games, but my cousin would rather die at a Bills game than miss it. Anywho, Kelly gave his speech and my cousin was barely keeping it together. When we asked him if everything was alright he put on this big grin and said that if Jim can beat it so could he. I completely lost it then and I'm starting to again as I type this now. -

I really couldn't care less if they stand, kneel, sleep, whatever. What bothered me was the media coverage looking for it specifically and then talking about it for the next 30+ minutes. If a guy wants to kneel and my kid notices and asks why then that's a conversation that I can have, but I don't need to be told who's doing it, how many, why that particular media member thinks it's happening, whether they agree with it, etc.
