CSBill Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Tyros Taylor looked like a complete NFL QB today. And throw in the fact that he is also the fastest running back on the team, and I really like him going forward. A top two-way threat QB—right there with Newton and Wilson. His last two game scented him as the clear started and a team leader going into 2016. Yes, draft someone that can be developed, but time to build around him now. Get someone else to compliment Sammy (and keep Woods), get a solid number two Tight End, and the Bills offense is in good hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Player Available Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I thought he played decently today. No play I would deem spectacular, but made the right decisions. Perhaps a little cautious but nothing wrong with that. Plus it was his first real game in bad windy weather. Feel a lot better about the position for 2016.

PromoTheRobot Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 So this week he's only decent, yet last week he was quietly spectacular? I'll use small words so you don't get confused. Last week TT made some clutch throws and escapes for first downs. I called that quietly spectacular because those plays were just that. This week he didn't have to make any spectacular plays. He made smart plays and got the job done and showed some real leadership. That's the difference. Hope I didn't give you a migraine explaining it.

John from Riverside Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I would call his play "steady" - Makes plays - Doesnt make the big mistake There are things to work on going into next season.......but the future is very very bright.

billsfanmiami(oh) Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 He was ok. Still looks like a "1 read & run" QB to me but hopefully he can further develop. I know he had very few options to throw to the last couple weeks. That being said its the best we have had in a long time (not saying much) and he appears to be a gamer and good leader. My biggest concerns are durability and the fact that we still kinda play a conservative offense with him. If next year he can take the next step and start hitting 2nd and 3rd reads over the middle and actually attacking through the air I'll be more sold. I just think it's more likely that he's a "caretaker" that won't be a guy that's gonna throw for 4K yards and 30 Tds which is almost a necessity these days for qbs of true contenders.

gjv001 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Taylor is without a doubt the Bills QB next season. He a talented leader that has demonstrated the ability to move the offense and score points. The Bills need to bring in two additional running QB's to have continuity in the offense should Taylor miss a couple games again next year.

dave mcbride Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Sad thing today about not throwing a td pass (despite the fact that his td run was fantastic)--he finished with a 99.4 rating. So close to 100! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the last team that went deep with QB play like ours this year? SF a couple years ago maybe? But I think Kaps numbers were a bit better. My point is that it's much more an "abnormality" to get there with that type of team. It's a passing league and even average qbs tend to get 4K and 25-30 Tds. If we keep thinking 3k and 20 is "great" I think that's just and indication of how long it's been since we've have truly good QB play. Just my opinion.

The haters have gone into hiding. If he left one play on the field, it was the 3rd down fade to Gillislie in the 4th. They haven't had much time to work together, but Tyrod lofted it for him to run open and under it, but he pulled up. We hit that, and there's no drama at the end.

PlayoffsPlease Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Taylor executed what he was asked to this season quite well. But the fact of the matter is that he was asked to do less than the top QBs are asked to do. And he wasn't able to elevate his play at critical moments in several meaningful games this season. He is clearly the Bills best QB on the roster. It is even possible that he is the 15th or 16th best QB in the league. This begs the question, is having a QB at that level mean you ignore the QB position in the draft? or do you draft an Andy Dalton in the second round (with Carson Palmer on the roster) or draft a Colik Kaepernick in the second round (when you have Alex Smith on the Roster) or do you draft Jimmy Garrapolo in the second round (when you have Tom Brady on the roster) or do you focus solely on "filling holes" in order to make sure you can finish 8-8.

Dorkington Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Considering the wind there today, I was really impressed with how he got the ball to the receivers.
