1billsfan Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Can the other 10 guys and coaches also help beat the Chiefs? Or is this all on Tyrod? We are all rooting for him to become the QB who can win these type of must win games that they always lose. So it's a figure of speech when I say he has to beat the Chiefs tomorrow to start differentiating himself from the QBs who never got it done in Buffalo. Even if he plays badly, Taylor will have five more games to prove he's getting much better and there's a real future with him. But he does have an opportunity right here in front of him to stamp that he's not like the other guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever considered that when QBs win games singlehandedly that just maybe sometime else on the field, you know, makes plays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truth on hold Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 (edited) He's being asked to not throw the ball. Why is that?He IS being asked to throw. For example, they must have dialed up that first play to watkins against jets over the middle all week. He just badly missed it Edited November 29, 2015 by JTSP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireChan Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 (edited) When you're up by multiple scores and put up 200+ yards on the ground? Seriously, how many times in the offseason did we say the following would be the formula for the season: get a QB who can game manage and worst and go on streaky runs of great play, run the ball down their throat and play lights out defense. That's how the Seahawks did it 2013, that's how the Ravens and Niners did it in 2012, that's how the Giants did it in 2011 and 2007, and it's how CarolIna is 10-0. Do you want to say we don't have the O-line, or that the defense hasn't been playing up to snuff? Fine. But this time last year I would have strangled someone for play like we've seen so far from Taylor. I'm not saying Tyrod isn't our best option at QB right now. I'm saying that even though Tyrod has been decent, he is playing in a system that is designed to take him out of the game in his normal position as much as possible. It's not like he's completing 20+ passes every game and putting together passing drives every week. We either rush for 150 yards and win, or don't and lose. Tyrod just has to not puke on his shoes. And that's no long term answer at QB. Edited November 29, 2015 by FireChan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireChan Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 reallllly So we are blaming the qb for the system now I'm not blaming him, it is what it is. You can believe that the system is the cause, that Roman is tying down a golden-armed QB with this system, and that with Adam Gase, Tyrod would be throwing 250+ yards a game. I believe that the system is the effect. I believe that Tyrod would be much worse in a different system because he's just not that good and Roman's system is keeping him afloat.

Agreed and it isn't even controversial. Tyrod is afraid to throw over the middle. Roman allows him to hand it off and throw short and to the sidelines all day and have ESPN randomly crown him depending on the week. It's a great situation for Tyrod.

Vinaccia Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 I must say I am so amused reading this thread and all the comments on here from the guys that are hating on Tyrod but don't have the stats to defend their arguments. They are creating all of these far stretched and conceptually bankrupt claims nitpicking fine issues with his performances. Lmfao. I can't wait for another good performance from Tyrod so that I can read some even funnier arguments. Even if hypothetically NE traded us Tom Brady for a 5th round draft pick and he became our starter the same people hating on Tyrod here would find something wrong with Brady calling him too old or comment on how he throws too short passes and has bad deep ball accuracy and therefore the Bills shouldn't start him. Lmfao. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it rather sad actually These are actually supposed to be fans of the team....yet make every attempt to tear down their QB as much as they possibly can Well anyway....I choose to root for the qb.......I will just have to live with it Agreed and it isn't even controversial.

It's not tearing them down so much as being honest in my evaluations. I gave EJ no such "cushion" because I rooted for him to do well. It would make me a hypocrite to play favorites. Like you said, you aren't evaluating, you're hoping they do well. That's why there's a disagreement. Edited November 29, 2015 by FireChan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Let's put it this way.... When I see tryhard Taylor actually perform well wire to wire and carry a team to a win I'll give him credit. I just don't see that happening.

When I see tryhard Taylor actually perform well wire to wire and carry a team to a win I'll give him credit. I just don't see that happening. Right now, Taylor has been nothing more than a nice story about a long time backup getting his chance and doing an ok job with that chance. He has the opportunity today to get that first signature win under his belt and start changing perceptions that he's probably going to end up becoming a career backup QB. It may not be fair, but today's huge game will go a long way in determining Taylor's future with this team. We're all rooting for him to play great.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Of course fans will holler to have the first round draft pick QB to start. Just go back 2 years here and all the excitement and desire for EJ to start. Then if said rookie has a few bad games we'll label him a bust and call for him to be run off before his rookie contract runs out just as many (the same ones probably) are doing with EJ. truer words....
