wettlaufer Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Not sure what game people were watching, but Tyrod was throwing darts over the middle of the field, hitting WR and TE. Putting a spy on him to keep him in the pocket forces the issue and also keeps LBers wide. That opens up the middle. A good complete game for our QB in those conditions. The fact people want to run him out of town after, what, 28 starts, is crazy. QBs don't develop overnight. This is like the people who sold Amazon in 2001 because it was immature and wasn't producing earnings. You have to take a longer view in investing and in the development of QBs. Some develop early, some later. It would be a mistake not to extend Tyrod given his development and tools (including his intelligence). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 He also missed numerous wide open receivers that would have been long gains, if not scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drinkTHEkoolaid Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I'm done with him. I'm no longer holding out hope. He was a better thrower last year and has regressed. I would seriously take my chances with EJ. At least he would have a sense of urgency when we're trailing by multiple scores in the 4th qtr.

I think Tyrod is a goner and it's because he stinks out loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I don't think I can any longer support pulling the trigger on paying his roster bonus to give him the extension currently on his contract. I'd support bringing him back under a deal that pays him more in line with what he's shown himself to be - a bottom tier starter or high end back up.

Big Gun Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Could not be any more clear he is not a good QB and is not the answer. 1 million % not worthy of the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 So did Big Ben. you really want to compare a Super Bowl winning, potentially HoF QB to Tyrod Taylor? Those throws you talk about are few and far between. They are often sprinkled in between unnessisary scrambles, inaccurate throws and the inability to find open receivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollars 2 donuts Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) -28 games is easily more than enough time. -he hasn't progressed at all from game 1 to game 28. -in adverse situations he turns in to Don Knotts. The harder he bites it the more some of you guys dig in. Edited December 12, 2016 by dollars 2 donuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drinkTHEkoolaid Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 It's 20frigging16 NFL and this guy still has never passed for 300+ yds at almost the end of his 2nd season. He has like 70yds today into the 4th qtr. Are you frigging kidding. I reallllly wanted Tyrod to be the guy but he's not. He is what he is and we've learned this over the course of this season.

NoSaint Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I don't think I can any longer support pulling the trigger on paying his roster bonus to give him the extension currently on his contract. I'd support bringing him back under a deal that pays him more in line with what he's shown himself to be - a bottom tier starter or high end back up. He's essentially slated to be the cheapest starter. The issue is we'd be able tied to him for 2-3 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has passed for under 200 yards 14 times and he has 8 games he has thrown zero TDs. It's a frickin pass happy league, that said it is extremely difficult to NOT eclipse 300 or in Tyrods case, even 200 yards passing and a TD or 3 or 4.

DCbillsfan Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 In his 28 starts, does he have any 4th quarter come from behind wins? I don't think he does. To me, this is telling and it's time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
