  1. Why do we know that's the answer? The Hoyer "interest" could have easily been some last minute posturing and leveraging. And if it was, it worked. I wish people would stop pretending they know what happened, or worse, team intentions, during that time period.
  2. Link that they were going to cut him? Don't bother looking if you don't want, there isn't one. So all of this is just an opinion. Another equally valid opinion is that all of the stuff from the moment the season ended up until Taylor renegotiated was simply posturing based on a likely mistake tailor-made on clean out day in the locker room when he said he would be open to restructuring his contract. I'd say the second option where they weren't going to cut Taylor but were just trying to leverage him into taking less money is the more likely scenario. After all, who the hell was going to start at QB for the Buffalo Bills in 2017, otherwise?
  3. Choosing not to reply to a post is a little different than the consistent "just crown him already!" posts bang has been posting lately. And what post? I don't read every single post of yours and I often don't reply to you anymore because you told me you aren't serious about most of what you say, hence the "Shady" name. Once you said that, it made me not really care about replying to you because I don't know when you're serious or if you're ever serious about what you say. And sometimes maybe you are serious and realize you said something you shouldn't have, and then you use this "Shady" facade as a means to excuse yourself. How about you leave a note at the end of your posts from now on saying whether we should take you seriously or not? Whoops... looks like you're history now.
  4. You're a dumbass troll who clearly doesn't watch this team. Superior running game, huh? Go away. We aren't a superior running team in 2017, so are you a troll or a moron? Better than 2 for 16 Did you not understand what he said?
  5. You've sounded a little frustrated and snippy lately with this topic. You and your overt sarcasm. Everything all right buddy?
  6. For me what sums this game up is simply that Buffalo doesn't win these types of games. Good teams need to pull out the close ones. Love that we did.
  7. Whaaaaaaaaaat?! I've decided that I despise posters like you. You're a troll OR You're a liar OR You're so entrenched in your opinion that it acts like LSD on your perception and makes you see (or not see) things that just aren't true It's gotta be one of those 3 things, and I find the first 2 particularly loathsome. The 3rd also makes me feel sorry for you. 1 throw all game, eh? Yeah, let's neglect the other 2 20+ yard throws to Thompson along with the 22 yard TD to Thomas along with the 34 yard strike up the deep middle of the field (*GASP*!!!!) to O'Leary. But no, let's just say something stupid and loathsome, instead. Good for you
  8. Just thinking about it immediately after the game, I was stoked we won, but I didn't put it up there with the Miami or Seattle game in 2016. But then I started thinking about this: Tampa 2017 40 total touches, 314 combined Net yards, 7.9 YPT, 1 TD, 0 turnovers, 9/15 (60%) on 3rd down conversions, down by 7 with less than 4 minutes in the 4th Quarter and leads a game tying drive. (Technically a GWD on the following drive courtesy mostly of Tre White and a "pass" to Taiwan Jones). Win. @ Seattle 2016 51 total touches, 306 combined Net yards, 6.0 YPT, 2 TDs, 1 turnover, 7/11 (64%) on 3rd down conversions, down by 11 entering 4th Quarter leads the team on a drive down by 6 that gets close to the EZ but ends up being unsuccessful. Loss. Miami 2016 53 total touches, 377 combined Net yards, 7.1 YPT, 3 TDs, 0 turnovers, 6/15 (40%) on 3rd down conversions, down by 4 with 4 minutes left in the 4th Quarter leads the team to a go-ahead TD with a TD pass to Clay, but the Dolphins get a FG and sends it to OT. Loss On top of that, is it just me or does Taylor look a little more comfortable passing from the pocket or with a crowd around him? I'm thinking particularly of the last bomb to Thompson. Lots of TB defenders closing in on him and a crowd around him and I thought he might actually run because I thought he was about to get sacked, but instead he threw a beauty. What do you think? Was that the best we've seen Taylor on Sunday and is he improving?
  9. So, Taylor did several things today he's criticized for that he supposedly never does, which seems to kinda reinforce that maybe Taylor's actually (*gasp*) getting better: Taylor carried the team. Not only did he win by passing for 30+ yards, but Taylor accounted for 60% of the touches and 72.4% of the yards through the air and on the ground. Keep the offense on the field. Taylor himself was 9/16 (60%) with 1 TD on 3rd downs. Bring a team back in the 4th quarter when down by 4+ points. Lead a GWD. Clutch throws to Thompson and Z Jones for the tie and then T Jones doing the YAC to clinch it. Let's just say this was a down game for our D. I hope it was. Playoff fodder we might not be
  10. Huh? The pass Jones dropped today he didn't have to dive for. What're you talking about? Stop being so shady, Shady Great point, actually It's just the fact that EVERY game there's one or two he drops that's a little ridiculous and is getting frustrating.
  11. Thurm, first of all, I think you should just send me flowers or something. This weird affinity you have for me is sweet, though Regardless, that's a nice opinion you have of Taylor being a below average QB. 20-22, eh? Who are the 19-21 QBs who are clearly better? Also, we've established (largely because of your inability to find QBs like Taylor who were on the bench pretty much the entirety of their rookie contracts AND THEN come in and perform like an NFL starter for a significant stretch... something you can't accept but also can't find) that there really isn't a "group" Taylor is in because his situation is actually very unique in the NFL. And that, my friend, is fact, not opinion
  12. Which one? Didn't he do that a couple times? Totally forgot I even made that bet with Wayne. Thanks for the reminder
  13. Micah Hyde: "We were only supposed to win four games all season, right? As I can recall ... someone had us going 4-12. Were 4-2 right now." All aboard!!!
  14. I'm just glad we ALL have good reason to talk positively about the Bills offense for one week. As for the defense...? Wellllllll
  15. Didn't throw for it, but gotta love the 314 NET yards combined for him He did. 2 for 17 yards
  16. I think they got him going a little after his drop in the first half. Still wait and see. But sick of these drops!
  17. Beast!!! Holds onto the football, too!
  18. I think this reflects the game. In the first half in particular there were some plays I was really frustrated about with Taylor. The play that ended the first half was one. There was a rollout where I thought he should've throwing the ball to Thomas as another. I was actually pretty down about the first half. But I'm really impressed with the second half. And how about that Deonte Thompson acquisition?!?!
  19. 268 yards in the air. 314 combined NET yards. Zero turnovers. Critically extending drives as he was 9/15 (60%) with a TD on 3rd down. Came back late in the 4th quarter down by 7 to win the game. Threw the ball 33 times. It's almost like I was right or something
  20. Last chance, folks. No Charles Clay OR Kaelin Clay, whatever will we do?
  21. From me? Dig them out. Please. I'm eagerly waiting
