transplantbillsfan Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Bills fans are ridiculous. TT wouldve had 300 all purpose yards and 3TD and 0 turnovers if Clay could catch a ball. But yeh, thats average around here. Nothing special at all. As far as the stat line goes, you're absolutely right. Taylor's play was really good today. Nothing spectacular, but really good. And today he had a number of passes "over the middle" and a number of plays where he progressed through his reads. I figured this would just be a warm up game, anyway. Clearly it was from the attitude of most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rochesterfan Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I will have to rewatch the play. I cant remember if he was open on his crossing route. From what i remember that pass was fine exactly where it was bc if he leads him more that play will be contested by the defender. That ball placement by TT only Clay could catch it. Most importantly, it was by no means a circus catch. In the end zone space is tight. That ball was right on his hands. Play makers make plays. Clay needs to make that catch 99% of the time or he has no business being a starting TE in the NFL. Just watching the replay - TT hits his drop and Clay is at the 4 getting ready to make his break. If he throws the ball there - the Jets LB is inside, but tight and that is the window. TT pulls it down and takes 2-3 steps to the left - Clay starts to get open, but by the time he throws it Clay has the LB underneath and is being run into the outside coverage. TT puts the ball in a good place, but the throw was late. You see Clay barely get a hand on the throw. The throw is a part of the issue, but it is about timing more than anything. That throw needs to be made earlier. At the time of the throw - he protected Clay with the back shoulder, but that would of taken an incredible catch. If the ball comes out on time there is a chance, but late throws in the red zone are not good most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Can't complain about this performance from TT today. Heck, checking ou most the box scores around the league TT is probably in the 90th percentile this week in terms of overall play. Jets aren't a great team but their defnese is probably at least average at worse. It's their offense that makes that team the favorite for the #1 pick. But I think the 49ers and maybe even Colts might have something to say about that. But with their scheudle it's just hard to see where the Jets will win a game.

transplantbillsfan Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Usual TT...nothing new, and nothing that tells me that he's anything more than what he's shown. We beat a poor team at home with Shady leading the way along with the D giving up a mere 12 points. Not much else to add, honestly. On to next week... Lots of over the middle throws.

Arkady Renko Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 He was unleashed compared to the preseason. Consistent with what the QB coach said.

transplantbillsfan Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 The Int was not all on Clay. The pass was late and behind Clay leading to the pick. It was an average game by TT. It certainly was not an "unleashed" performance. It was a good victory, but does not provide a ton of positives - they beat the worst team in the NFL. Umm... no. The Int was on Clay.

Marty McFly Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Unless they pass the test, then it wont count for some reason (the bills had an inside edge and intelligence against the panthers) Thats right. Also if we dont have 350 yds passing the win doesnt count either. The test . alway the test ; )| Bills do have an uphill battle. But they played like they know it.

Pass Offense Tyrod Taylor had a good day, one he can build on. He completed 16 of 28 for 224 yards with 2 TDs and a pick that really wasn’t his fault. I thought Charles Clay should have caught the ball at the goal line. The one thing I have to wonder about is that he targeted his wide receivers only eight times, and they caught only four passes. Jordan Matthews had a big 47-yard gain, and Clay had a 35-yarder along with a TD.
