Take the total amount of plays for every QB in the NFL, add the running yards and the passing yards together and divide. When your done come back and tell me how Kaep ranked last year. I suppose your going to call yards per attempt, the highest correlated statistic to points scored in the NFL crap as well.

I think any of us would take 19 TD's/10 INT's, 14th Total QBR, 639 yards rushing with a 6.1 AVG. Luck was only one ranking higher in total QBR and Kaep was higher rated than Newton. If we get anywhere near that production we will certainly make the playoffs. This notion of teams "figuring out" Taylor is not based on Romans offense which has a ton of wiggle room for a mobile QB based on a scheme that isn't afraid to fully utilize the QB or the RB in the natural run game.

Brady can look average if you can pressure him which is why Rex has done so well against him. We have the best coach in the NFL to defend against him and likely the best defensive personnel to play against him. If you look historically Seattle has one of the top 10 defenses of all time. I'm not going to say we have the best defense in the NFL so long as Seattle has it's core intact. But I do think we have the best defense and strategy in the NFL to beat Brady.

The read option at the start of the 2nd quarter is why I think he will start. People keep saying teams will figure him out and he won't be able to run. Kaepernick doesn't exactly throw a football thru a a tire with accuracy. Great arm sure. TT has enough arm. On that read option he picked up 20+ yards in about 4 seconds and it looked like it had the ease of a high school game. His legs are going to be used for much more then scrambles. His read option forces some serious stress on defenses which already has to worry about McCoy and 4 YAC oriented WR's. I've called for him to start since we signed him and I'll stick to it.

Not sure about him, but a lot of 31-38 year old out of state Bills fans that started following football as kids during the best of the Kelly years. I think most learned to appreciate more than just those teams, but everything the team and the fans represented. Once you become a Bills fan you just don't stop. In state or out. As far his comments, I don't know. I think Buffalo from the outside in seems like it could be a difficult but rewarding place to play. Difficult from a lack of huge market exposure but huge market expectations, rewarding from how revered Bills players can become locally. You can play good football and retire for a lot of teams and fade off into the distance. Most Bills that play good football become legends.

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/05/sports/football/05romer.html?_r=0 NFL teams won't one punt that often one day. Somebody needs to have the balls to go all in. That is what is stopping somebody from trying it. If a team didn't do well, based on that or not, just about everybody would be fired.

Would be interesting if they start EJ next. I actually think that is the best strategic move to get the most competition.

I hate his announcing so much but his kick return in the 94 playoff game vs the Raiders is still one of my all time favorite Bills plays. It was just a weird play, we needed, coldest game in Bills history. I don't want to remember this guy for his announcing. Mute.

If this was baseball we would have a pretty good rotation.

Freddy has the 16th highest cap hit, we would save 2.7 million. I want him to be on this team when they break the playoff drought. That's why I would be a bad CEO.

Current odds on Bills starting QB? Meh -115 Hate the Pass +105 Good Guy +175

EJ isn't good because he's a bad person

As for Darby Game 1, I will take him against Hilton. Not Johnson. Week 2, he matches up well with New England's wide outs. Hopefully McKelvin is back again and Darby can keep developing. With the way he stays with his man he would be a great Nickle corner this year as he develops. I'm not sure if Rex switches corners, but I'm not overly worried about Darby vs speed right now. I am worried about Darby vs size.

Frank Gifford is dead, wait!!! He's....alivawaitasecond. Nope. Not alive.

Rookie CB playing his first game on an island style defense against some very good WR's. Darby will make me nervous all year against guys like Kelvin Benjamin. I like the fact that he's in position, the rest will come in time with good coaching and more experience.

Taylor can throw a football over a mountain

Taylor prefers you don't get on him.

Judging by the history of our fan base I think we will come to a unanimous decision on who should start at QB

Let TT be himself. He runs a sub 4.5. Be a shame not to run. He't not a run only guy. He will keep his eyes downfield. He just doesn't have any issue gashing you with his legs if you give him the option. He also tends not to get smoked when tackled. Very elusive guy. Closest comparison is Vick when he was with Atlanta. TT isn't as athletic as Vick but it almost doesn't matter when you reach TT's level of athleticism. His maturity and experience are better than Vick. I also think Vick intended on running, didn't even consider options downfield at times. That was his downfall. I feel TT starts pass at all times. If he runs, he has a good feel for the pocket, either exploding out decisively or slowly moving around and keeping his eyes downfield. Big play machine.

EJ has to be stressed. Going to be hard to look good against what we just saw.

Darby will get it. The speed difference at this level is insane. It takes getting beat a few times to respect how much faster the game is.

Anybody else feel like it's ok to be optimistic? I feel as if I couldn't be from conditioning. This just feels different. I don't hope we will be good. I expect it. When is the last time we ever expected anything out of this team?

What TT did on that series almost played out like a book as far as what I thought. If Goodwin only held onto the ball... Massive pressure created by his legs, force the defense to compress. Take your shots. Having said that I did not expect MC to be so efficient. We have an actual QB battle and that's a great thing : )

Once teams start to shadow his runs he will have a much easier time throwing the ball.

I love the fact that MC looked so good, but damn I like what TT can do as far as big play potential.
