It's extremely clear that one subset of the population seems to be particularly up in arms about ESPN. I'm curious if there's a corollary here to opinions on bathrooms, water fountains, or voting rights...

It also matters that deep middle of the field plays are usually massive plays. We're talking about huge 3rd down pickups: does anyone feel safe when Brady/Rodgers/Wilson/Roethlisberger have 3rd & 16? When taylor has 3rd and 7 I'm already hitting the bathroom to beat the crowds before the punt. Those deep middle plays are also game winning drives, of which Taylor has 2 in his entire career. The aforementioned QBs seem to make these plays weekly, even if the frequency is less. When the chips are down, they have nerves of steel. Taylor just doesn't have what it takes to be anything more than an electric runner that drops down to a game manager mean.

I absolutely think he SHOULD be replaced, but this is the Bills we're talking about - the same team that decided a CB was a better pick this year than the best looking QB to come out in a decade. I think it's highly likely the Bills try to have their cake and eat it too next year. I'm fully prepared for a (trade up in the second or 3rd round to grab the 5th best prospect) type of scenario that makes Taylor the guy by default. Taylor is a virtual lock to be here in 2018, barring a complete implosion. Medicority wins the day - look no further than Miami, Cinci, Minnesota, Chicago, Jacksonville, etc for other prime examples. I don't hate Taylor - I just wish he was a player he can never be. It's not his fault that he'll never be Russel Wilson. Anything less simply isn't good enough.

Where are you getting that it has "almost zero importance"? It may be massively critical, but your charts don't designate importance.

Do the 20 yard out of bounds attempts count? Hes good for a few of those every game. Taylor hardly ever puts his WRs in a position to succeed. Jared Goff seems to have no problem dropping 51 points on the board with Watkins and Woods, but somehow they weren't good enough to play here. Jordan Matthews had no problem catching TDs and putting up WR 1/2 numbers With Vick/Foles/Wentz, but here he's an overrated bum getting outperformed by Marquise Goodwin. I wonder what everyone is going to say when Benjamin puts up the two worst seasons of his career...

Passer rating is the +/- of the NFL. It means completely nothing and is massively weighted towards not throwing picks, which taylor refuses to do. I would expect him to be Top 10 passer rating in every category, because he plays to the design of the formula.

I mean, If YOU made an NFL team, but it was the Browns, would they be your favorite team then? The company I work for isn't my favorite.

Haven't missed a game since '90, and it was a joke, not a ****, don't take it so hard.

What about cord cutting? What about the type of clientele likely to be interested in letting nielsen spy on them for $150? I watch 8 or more games a week but they cant measure it. TV is down across the board. I think it might have less to do with the NFL and more to do with other ways to watch.

Matthews is having the worst season of his career by miles and miles under Taylor. He's slated to end up with 480 yards on 42 catches and 2 TDs. If I were him, there would be zero chance I'd re-sign here. Those are TJ Graham numbers on a team with walk on WRs.

What about when Peyton and Eli played each other?

#NotMyQuarterback

here's the test for me: with 1:30 to go and no timeouts needing a touchdown at your own 20 yard line how much are you willing to bet that TT drives the field and scores? With Brady Rodgers, Wilson I'm betting every dime I have and will ever make for the rest of my life. With 10 or so other QBs I'm laying down a hefty chunk of change. With Taylor, I'm betting everything I've got and taking out loans to bet on the other team.

QB x2, LB, DE, CB, G, TE, WR

There's no agenda. Taylor is just bad. I was a big supporter last year, but he's proven that he doesnt have what it takes to be a full-time starter in this league. I hope we trade him to the Browns in the offseason.

of course he has, just not in Buffalo, where WRs go to die.

depends entirely on the draft. I'd like to see an upgrade, but he's a fine WR5/6

+1

I pegged us for 10-6 before we traded watkins and darby. After Boldin retired I figured 5-6 wins. After week 8 I figured 10-6 because I assumed a jets win and now I think 10-6 or 9-7 is still the right call. Beat Indy, Chargers, Miami and try to steal one against the Pats, Saints, Chiefs. If we can get our D back, KC makes the most sense to me

Flacco is terrible. Dalton is not great. i put him at about even footing with Taylor, but he's such a drastically different player. I think he'd be more successful here because Cinci is toxic, and they've never been able to run the ball. I don't think he'd lead us to a Super Bowl either, but he'd a be a 2-3 win upgrade. But no, I wouldn't want him if he became available.

One of Taylor's problems is that he doesn't throw enough picks. He treats the football like money under a mattress.

I'll sell you mine. I've also got a Rob Johnson if you're interested.

My agenda is to not have a QB that can't win football games. This is the definition of Tyrod. He can keep you in a game someone else is winning for him, but in his career he's won exactly 2.

Good O-lines rarely make bad QBs good - they just give them more time to make bad decisions. Roethlisberger has had bad lines his whole career, Russel Wilson has the worst line int he league by a mile, Tom Brady hasn't had a good line in a decade. Rodgers lines have almost always been bad, Watson had a bad line, Brees, Rivers, etc. It takes 5 players to make a good oline. It takes one good QB to drastically reduce their relevance.
