I get the sentiment of wanting to build around Tyrod when we snuck into the playoffs. Then we lost 3 to 10. Doesn't matter anyway his time was over when he got benched. Tyrod was only out there because there was no other option. Even with a chance at redemption he choked away a playoff game. I'm not living in past. His time was this year and his moment was in Jax and he failed.

I liked our defense this year. I know it wasn't perfect but I was confident that the defense would keep us in games. I didn't like the offense this year. Even when it was turnover heaven it seemed the offense never capitalized. I had more faith in defense production then offense production. The playoff we played against Jax gave me the exact feeling as the game against the Panthers. We can't score points. We held Jax to 10. If we won that game it would of been the same situation. The defense probably holds up for the offense to choke the game away. I think the offense needs some real attention. They rode on the backs if defense all year. Although I assume that it was not an option and they rolled with what they had. Excited for the future definitely.

Daboll.... Daboll... Badoll? Badoll... Bad Doll!! Bad Doll!!!

That was my point on how I see people gang up. Just that when your the loudest you get the most attention. Big targets easy to hit.

You let people get in your head and stir you up man. You don't always have to defend your opinion. People disagree sometimes. I said Tyrod was a back up once and that's all I could see him as. I got a paragraph response in opposition I never responded too. I've seen you get targeted and grouped up on but you also have made yourself a big target by being the loudest. Like whoever is the loudest wins the argument.

Thanks for the news and tidbits of information on the new OC hire. I have no choice but to drink kool-aid and hope for the best right now. I will formulate my opinions when I see how the moves this team makes translates to the field.

I just came in for insider info. Left unsatisfied.

Richie has a history and it makes him an easy target. So even if he didn't say anything racist he could of pissed the other guy off enough for him to use that history against him and claim he said something knowing the media would cover it. That is also a possibility. The real racism here is how quickly everyone jumps on sides. I realize that Richie could of said something or the other guy made it up to get a shot at Richie. Anything is possible especially when it's he said she said .

I vote for the throwbacks.

I don't think they make that trade if they can find common ground with Dareus. I don't think they traded him away without making an attempt to work with him. He could go on to be spectacular but that doesn't assure he would of done it here for these coaches or this team. It's not like Dareus didn't do anything to effect his situation.

I didn't see the game he played in. If he turns out to be great it will make trading away that pick hurt. People talking trading up at a larger cost for a QB next draft when we could of just drafted him last year without any movement. That's my only slight interest in him because the Bills could of potentially drafted him.

I think it comes down to trying to take a mobile back up QB and turning him into a pocket passer traditional starting QB. TT is a good guy and hard worker. I'd give him the chance to transition. He couldn't take the next step. He couldn't play that scramble around game forever. Defense put spies on him then sold out to stop the run game. Tyrod could of and should have made them pay through the air and couldn't. I understand people say scheme around him. If I'm Coach I say you can't stick around forever on gimmicks. You eventually are gonna have to transition into what I want. I love the way you can scramble on a broken play and avoid pressure but this the team needs more. I think Tyrod got plenty of opportunities and they ran out. He still had a shot to win a playoff game and it was like I was looking at the Panthers game all over again and having this feeling we can't win with him. Instead of thinking people should game plan around Tyrod, I think he should have learned to run the game plan. I'm not stepping down for you. Your stepping up for me.

I'm trusting that the staff used what tools they had the best they could. They did exactly what they said they would. They made moves to win now and for future. They dumped players they didn't want and got the most for them they could. The offensive side was the weak link but I am confident they were aware of it when they brought in a wide receiver and benched Tyrod. I am actually satisfied with how the season played out. I don't know if Dennison is a problem but I give him the benefit of the doubt because he had a back up quarter back to run his offense all season.

It can't be much worse can it?

Dareus is always having some sort of an epiphany, good for him. It's really happening for him now.

Tyrod was a back up QB that has a few special talents. He can escape a lot of pressure. He can get a first down with his legs sometimes. In a QB desperate year I can see why you would bring a guy like Tyrod to the team and see if he can rise to the next level. At the very least he can hold things together. This year it didn't work out for Tyrod. They didn't bench him because he was at the level they wanted. Doing the things they wanted. I don't know his future. I just see him as a backup quarter back with some natural talent that could make him great if he could transition. After a few years you figure the experiment is over. This was the year for Tyrod Taylor. The defense was primed to keep him in every game. You only have to score more then 10 points to win a playoff game. He didn't want it bad enough. He wanted to play like a back up and manage the game and not play like a champion. The other quarter back played like trash but he made it work enough to beat the Bills because the offense could only score 3 points. I don't think you plan having Tyrod start next year. I could only see him as a back up now.

I think Tyrod took some unnecessary hits to his helmet. At least it looked that way. Tyrod is tough I wouldn't like taking those hits.

Honestly the offense is sad. I won't point fingers because I am no expert. I just wouldn't want to roll that out again. I am all in favor of whatever the answer is to get a more productive offence.

I can't complain because the refs gave us a favorable spot for a first. I can't remember the exact play but it was a shady run and I felt we got lucky on the spot.

Nate hasn't had a good introduction to the NFL. I was rooting for him myself. I don't know his future but I didn't have to wait for an answer on how he would be in a game this year. He's not ready to start yet. I'd be scared of him getting killed if I had to put him out there. I wouldn't write him off yet but I am not filled with confidence either. I could ride a rookie season. I could deal with 50 interceptions if it meant Peterman was gonna develop into a brand name. Peterman is a piece I might keep around to see what develops but I wouldn't be ready to start him next year. I am ready and willing to ride out a rookies season of struggle. I might grow to hate that dude. It still would be worth it to keep trying until the light turns on for a candidate. If I'm Coach then I keep trying guys in my system until one fits.

You ever work at a job that you have to be on a team? All day at my job people complain about others they work with.

I think defense was part of his benching. I'll ride that horse till it dies.

I think Tyrod was a backup QB with abilities that made him interesting for a QB desperate team to try as a starter.

I think Tyrod should be thankful for getting a chance to showcase himself as a starter in the NFL. I think as a player he was given enough time and opportunity to prove he is more then just a back up QB. I respect Tyrod but I just don't think he deserves a huge thank you. I'd give him a word of encouragement for giving the team his best efforts. I reserve my thank you to show gratitude when some one actually does something I can be thankful for. I'm not thankful for 3 points against the Jags. That isn't something I can appreciate. I wonder how the defence feels about getting to the playoffs to hold the opponent to 10 to lose anyway. I think he should thank the Defense for making every game winnable and give an apology for letting it go to waste.

I don't think the Jags destroyed us. I think the offense was so bad that we lost because of it. I would rather blame the offense then credit St. Doug.
