artmalibu Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I know its a hot topic and all but i am thrilled that there are 2 QBs at look better than anyone else that the bills have had in years. But, the only opinion that counts is Rex's. He will start the QB that gives us the best chance to win. Lastly, I think QB by committee is the way to go, let the opponents game plan for two different QBs in one week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current Atl Falcons consultant Joe Banner says Taylor should be starter if not at start of yr then soon after.. Joe Banner, hmmmm, hrrrrrrrrum (rummage, rummage, rummage) - isn't he the Browns CEO who hired Rob Chudzinski, the coach who got fired 1 year later before Banner, too, was shown the door or left? Maybe we should be interested in the football judgement of chaps whose football record is a mite better than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris heff Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Now that I think of it, I believe he was a Browns exec too. I thought Banner was the guy that turned into the Hulk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BmarvB Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) If he develops as a pocket passer, this offense is the perfect fit for him, and vice-versa. With the heavy dose of the run, our weapons in the receiving game, and his ability to make things happen on the run (ala Doug Flutie/Michael Vick/Russell Wilson), we become a threat in the playoffs if he's a consistent producer.

nucci Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 It's likely either Taylor or Cassel......right? We all can say the same thing without being an NFL executive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 It's likely either Taylor or Cassel......right? We all can say the same thing without being an NFL executive. but it wouldn't matter.

Russell Wilson really had an exceptional year I think. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/14881/russell-wilson Problem is, for every Russell Wilson, you have like 5 RG3s.

tennesseeboy Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I kind of got the impression he was pressing Cassell for the job and doing a very good job of it...but not that the job was his or that he displaced Cassell in any way. I think he COULD make a challenge for the job on Thursday and overtake Cassell with a good to great performance. If he doesn't the hunt goes on. If TT blows it I suspect Ryan will commit to Cassell as it is getting toward time in the preseason where the one and two should be identified. I'm kind of hoping for Taylor, but it is too early to say he is ahead of Cassell. EJ on the other hand is pretty clearly odd man out--at least as far as the #1 and #2 slots go.

PromoTheRobot Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 So glad he, and everyone else is ready to hang the season on a guy that has thrown 35 career passes.Well what QB comes into the league with loads of game experience? To me, Tyrod is better than a rookie. You actually do learn a lot being a backup on a good team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respect everyone's opinion (mostly) but I have a hard time getting my mind around putting in a QB who has never started an NFL game... if you have a viable option? I hope Cassel IS viable.

vincec Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) My concern with Taylor is whether he can stay healthy. He runs a lot and needs to in order to be effective, but he's not as big as guys like Newton or Kaepernick so the chance of injuries are a concern to me.
