Context. Cool we have scored a lot of points. We still don't win a lot of games. So where are we scoring point? Just winning games big? Exploiting bad teams? What's the point differential between the wins and losses?
See context this stat really doesn't say anything other than since 2015 we scored a lot of points but are still .500
Of course it's context Bobby. We also may be giving up a lot of points of defense, which is also why we're stuck at 500. No one it refuting that its not showing the entire picture, you're just having trouble figuring out the larger point. I'm not sure why you keep posting the same thing over an over. But scoring more points, for a football team, is a good thing. But please don't reply with "Context" again. We get it, you understand the concept of statistics in a contextual fashion.

Jesus it's context. Maybe it is trending great. But just posting point totals mean nothing. What did we rack 30plus against a 2 win team.
Cool scored a lot of points in the same time still essentially .500 so where is the context because something is causing the fact we can't win double digit football games yet score a lot of total points when you add all the games up.
But hey that would be to hard to make a stat meaningful
Points are what wins games Bobby. The more you score, the more likely you are to win games. Unless you are going to go and count garbage time points for every other team, I'm not sure what your point is. You should consider trying to punctuate more, it'll make your posts easier to read.

Because it is lipstick on a pig. Doesn't say anything put it in context and where those points were scored then it means something
No different saying look this guy can get pressure he has 10 sacks this season. Context was he had 6 against a bad OL and then had 4 over the other 15 games
You are right, scoring points is stupid, who cares if we do or not? Think before you post, Bobby.

Cool ran some points up in some wins against bad teams Can't score in losses against good teams .500 team great
Nobody is happy that we're not in a better position in terms of W/L. I think the OP is trying to find a reason to optimistic, and he should be lauded for it.

But it's ironic...
It's like rain, on your wedding day.

Why isn't JT Barrett on the list? He is the QB that Cardale Jones could not beat out for the starting job in college after winning the national championship. In a very small body of work, Jones showed he has size, toughness, and a cannon for an arm. I just don't believe he is anywhere close to being able to play against a NFL defense. But who honestly knows.
That said it is TT to the playoffs and this discussion will be done.
See "Other"....
Course we could also create the perfectly bad QB out of former Bills if we want to tank and get a better draft pick.
Meet Thadle Joe Edwardson.
The lack of heart of Orton, the checkdown philosophy of Edwards, the lack of preparation of Billy Joe Hobert, the desperation of Thad Lewis and the IQ of Rob Johnson.
You forgot a few. Flutie's height, Taylor's inability to see the middle of the field, Bledsoe's mobility and Fitzie's overestimation of his arm strength.

I voted for all 4 since you didn't use radio buttons
I am awash in a sea of techno-shame.

Surprise surprise
@adamschefter
Patriots DT Alan Branch is being suspended four games for violating drug policy, sources tell ESPN. Tested positive for marijuana. Appealing
it would have been more appealing if he got busted BEFORE the New Era game....

And just like that, sound engineer Dwight Windelburger's lifelong dream of playing linebacker in the NFL was cruelly, and effortlessly, dashed.
That read like a Farside cartoon, lol. https://www.reddit.com/r/TheFarSideGallery/comments/3vghwa/the_mummys_wrath/

If you have twitter as a pro athlete and are going to insult those back who insult you, you'd be home 24/7 typing.
Why do you care? Were you the one that insulted him in the first place? Honestly, who cares what he says on Twitter?
-
I want Sammy Watkins and LeSean McCoy on the field at the same time. Win out baby!!
Amen brother. Bob Woods too!

I never said I care what he said. I said the organization made him apologize. It was poor judgement. If you are going to get your feelings hurt by people on twitter, don't have twitter. That's the real story there.
Says you. It's quite simple, people call him names, he called them names back. It happens in the real world every second of every day. The real story is that we as a fanbase acted like a bunch of kitties and got all bent out of shape about it, essentially demanding the organization force someone to apologize because there was a vocal contingent that has low self esteem and are ashamed of their lives.
-
That has nothing to do with it. If you are on twitter, people are going to be internet tough guys, you ignore it. He had to apologize for his comments, so obviously the organization considered it ill advised. It was not a good choice of words, even if there was truth in the statement. It never works to be offend an entire group of people because you want to attack someone who belongs to that group who hurt your feelings. Ex. People with little jobs. I just think it shows he doesn't always post smartly on Twitter.
Oh no! Won't somebody think of the CHILDREN!
-
This is the same guy who tweeted "y'all little jobs" so I wouldn't put it past him to make it look like he wanted to play with an ill advised tweet.
You mean to the people that were tweeting about him being a kitty? The only people angry about that are those that are insecure about their station in life.

Was thinking about bringing my 8 and 10 year old boys this week. Hammer's seems pretty family friendly, and they are going to love the Kenny show.....

Again just pointing to a trend in NFL Rookie because of all the passing 7 on 7 camps etc and how NFL rules are skewed toward the passing game in recent years Rookie QBs are coming into the league and performing at least at a .500 level. Why because really for the most part all NFL teams are really .500 teams
But you understand that just because some rookies are doing well doesn't really guarantee that one will do well in Buffalo, right? Based on the QBs in your sig, which do you think would get us to 500?
-
You would get no drop off imo based off recent rookie play. It was in response to his statement that a rookie QB would be throwing game ending picks and we would not be where we are .500 with a rookie
There were open WRs a lot. The All22 will confirm this
But you understand that if we draft a rookie and start him that we have absolutely NO IDEA whether the part in red would be accurate, right?
-
Did you read what my responses were too. Obviously not.
They were to John saying a Rookie would not get the level of play Tyrod would. When that is totally incorrect.
So a Rookie would give you the same level of play (likely) with upside (Taylor at ceiling) and 16M cheaper cap wise for 4 years
That bolded there, that is not a fact, Bobby. You know that it's wholly your opinion, and one that I find hard to even value without knowing which rookie it is you are talking about. It's wholly relative to so many factors that you have no control over (the rookie's strength and weaknesses, the offense that is run by the Bills, the OC of the Bills, the head coach of the Bills, the players reaction to starting a rookie QB, the pressure put on said rookie by the media/fans, the defense that the rookie is playing against, the DC on the opposing teams ability to scheme vs a rookie. It could go on forever. The way you are getting your point across it seems like you think that ANY rookie could step in and perform better than TT, which just makes no sense. You see?
You then use that savings to bring in offensive playmakers.....
Which rookie do you want?
-
I am arguing that I am not picking up his option. However 6 games can change that argument.
In 6 games if I see 5 like he played in Seattle then I am closer to paying 16M cap hit for that play.
He has earned this evaluation period. I also know I have still a year or two before Cardale is even close to ready to step on a field
I was referring to your argument with John in another thread that we'd be just as well or better off starting a rookie.
-
Taylor should remain QB rest of season. There needs to be a decision on him in offseason so these next games are needed to evaluate for that decision.
Aren't you arguing that we should get rid of him after the season and start whatever rookie we draft? Wouldn't you logically then want Cardale to finish off the season based on that point of view?
-
Got it can't prove me wrong that a Rookie at 2M cap hit can get you to .500 just like Taylor with a 16m cap hit.
Are you really arguing that the Bills should just draft a rookie QB and start him next year, just because? Because of a $16m salary cap hit?
-
What's that?
Just trolling today, Joe?
-
Depends on the Jekyll & Hyde performances of the QB. If he plays like he did against Seattle, they have a good shot to run the table. Need to get Watkins & Woods back to help the offense. TT has zero trust in anyone else.
This is a good point that I think is often overlooked here.

didnt even vote, how does this even enter someones mind?
See the post directly above yours.
We are top 10 in points scored since start of 2015.

Just for those of us keeping score at home, you attack to OP with your post (which by the way, was not even a coherent response), and then IMMEDIATELY turn around and tell Dorkington that he's going to be attacked for "common sense on this board" (but in actuality the OP submitted a reasoned reply, agreeing with him).
Are you serious?
