Should've never let Dougie walk. The guy can coach. 2nd best coach in NFL(behind belicheat).
Completely agree.

Marrone deserves a ton of credit. I cannot remember the last time I saw a road team (as a major underdog) dominate the line of scrimmage like Jags have today. Has his O-Line playing at a high level. Has his entire team ready to play and then some.
Still think Marrone's 9-7 season was the most impressive season we've had in a while. Don't like the guy but he's a good coach.

This is an indication of how well we played. We played them on the road too.

I would trade 2 1st round picks for him. I’d take it.

That Goff/Elway comparison is ridiculous. They played in complete different eras and it is well known that offensive numbers blew up over the last 15 years.
I agree. I hate when people compare this era to prior eras. Hell, look at Brady’s number prior to 06. The rules have changed the numbers

Let’s not discount the success he had in Buffalo

Was Roethlisberger the worst QB he ever seen when he threw 5 picks against the jags?
pretty sure kornheiser was crapping on the Bills for benching Tyrod.
Let’s not get carried away with hyperbole. Tyrod is what he is. But still the best we’ve had in a while. It was a decent 3 years broke time to move on
4 minutes ago, dneveu said:Have to disagree. He obviously has issues - but worst in the NFL? His comp% is in line with league average, and he's made throws and plays this year that no one outside maybe russell wilson could make.
And yes - i still hope we cut him.
Tyrod is very limited. He can’t see the whole field. And has subpar accuracy. We should have run an offense to accommodate those short comings. Hopefully we don’t trust Dennison with another QB. Rather have a fresh slate.

QB ratings at the half:
Bortles: 47.9 Tyrod: 43.8
Interception and drops are the difference. Tyrod has done well enough.

You are right, defense wins championships. So I guess we should ignore our 29th ranked run
defense that gave up 22 rushing TDs and about 125 yards a game on the ground.
I think TT can throw for more yards in this game than the run defense gives up, so we should
have a chance.
People will ignore this. People will ignore Tyrod converting 3rd Downs and the offensive coordinator going super conservative in every 2nd half. Limited yes, but he isn’t as bad as some would lead you to believe

My fear is that "Does TT have enough in him to bring us back like Mariotta did today" ? That is what Franchise QBs can do.
I think Mariotta and Tyrod are very similar but Tyrod doesn’t throw interceptions. That game was more in Derrick Henry dominating in the 2nd half

Can we stop the Run? That will decide this game. Our offense has not been able to take advantage of the turnovers created by our defense.
Our offense has done enough to win more hsn we’ve lost. We just need Bortles to show up. I’m hoping we score just enough to not allow them to get a big lead. If our red zone defense holds up we’ve got a great shot

If the Bills decide to retain Tyrod I think they must get rid of Dennison. They are a mismatch and Tyrod clearly can’t run Dennison’s offense.
Keep in mind, I’ve been very open about my opinion of Tyrod. I think he needs to go. However, I am coming to the realization that there simply may not be a viable alternative.
We draft a QB early and let them compete. If Tyrod wins it out he starts next year. If not, we cut or trade him. If Dennison wins next week we keep him next year.

Bills Chiefs. Tyrod may struggle against Jags D, but we will have a second QB in Bortles playing for our team that day too.
Tyrod does what he always does. Not turn the back over. Bills win the turnover battle.

Has anyone scores on the Vikings this year ?
Trubisky will leave Taylor in the dust year 2 just like Goff did.
Goff got better with better coaching.

I was going to post a thread saying that I've change my mind about replacing Taylor next year. I say keep him and build up the team around him. But still try look for the quarterback of the future.
I’ve been saying this from day one

Odds of scoring a TD with 23s left probably like 1 or 2%. And they get it. FML
For the Bills. The odds of things not only not goin in their favor but being heart breakingly close are 75%

The Bills most likely will go QB looking after the season, but we need to be reminded while offensive
Football is a 11 man game; just because a team has a expensive (which should mean successful) QB,
it does not necessarily mean success in the NFL.
Before this season, contracts were signed by Derek Caar for 5 years at $125,000,000 and MatthewStafford for 6 years and $151,000,000. The guaranteed money was for $70M and $80M respectfully.
And by the way, Tyrod Taylor's contract was for 2 years at $30,500,000 with $15,5M guaranteed.
So bringing in a so called top veteran QB at big bucks doesn't mean much if you ask the Raiders or Lions.
As for the draft, we all know it is a crap shoot., but even getting a franchise guy means nothing
unless the O and D is upgraded, and we all know where that needs to be done in Buffalo.
As for JG in SF, that is the exception in the draft. He sat and learned for 3 years from perhaps the
greatest QB ever to play the game. I doubt if he came right out of the draft and started immediately
that he would be as good as he is today.
.
I’ve tried to express this many times. The QB is the most important position but the team around the QB is much more important

Easy....Orton.
I'd take Taylor over Orton. That team's success was due to Jim Schwartz amazing defense

Things would be different with another OC, a better OL and better WRs. I know you are
frustrated, we all are, and TT is a easy target, but he is a NFL starting QB, who in the
right situation will be successful
Truth. Very bad O Lines. Consistent injury and turnover at receiver are always overlooked. He also picks up yards with his feet and doesn't turn the ball over. He's built for a very defensive team.

HE’S NOT AVERAGE. He’s not “good.” He’s not a “guy you can win with.” He’s more of a problem than he is a solution and he won’t even throw a back shoulder pad down the sideline like EVERY other QB in the league. He’s garbage. He won’t be starting next year — watch.
He's average. Below average accuracy, above average athleticism + not turning the ball over = average. Once again, who's been a better Bills QB since 2000?

And allowed 10. The clear cut favorite in the AFC is getting blown out 21-0 at home. If we don't make Bortles look like Vick or drop interceptions it's a completely different game
