KDIGGZ Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) Tyrod addressed the media today to discuss being benched. Understandably, he did not sound happy about the decision From Tyrod: "I don't agree with the decision" "I'm disappointed" "I will continue to lead from the sidelines" "Offense was suited towards me but moving forward offense will be suited more towards Nate and what he does best" Do you envision being the QB here next year? "That's not up to me" Did you get a fair chance in Buffalo? "I don't look at life as fair or unfair, you just have to deal with it" "I will be ready and I'll prepare the way I always prepare" "I have full confidence that I can be a franchise QB" Edited November 15, 2017 by kdiggz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangarang Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Tough spot to be in. He was a gamer for us and played well at times but it was very clear he was limited and not our long term answer. I hope he helps Peterman along the way and know he will stay ready if his number does get called again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Tyrod still may see the field coming off the bench. Can't be mentally undone by this. But ya also can't keep checking down on 3rd and 13, 3rd and 20, etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starts on first and 2nd. 1 minute ago, BeefCurtns said: Tyrod how do you explain when it was 3rd and 15 at a point in the game where we needed to keep the drive alive and you checked down to Tolbert over the middle for 7 yards ? Watch the play... it was a crappy play. 3 guys ran routes short of the sticks, 2 guys ran past. they were in a tampa 2 with a deep lying MLB. The only truly open guy is tolbert. The other plays aren't there to be made. Call a better play! Edited November 15, 2017 by dneveu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrod how do you explain throwing a checkdown with no chance of getting out of bounds with 13 seconds and in field goal range. That was it for me and TT as a full time starter. Like when I gave up on Rex when he admitted he didn't know how the replay system worked after the KC debacle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wasn't a checkdown - it was the play call. It was dumb because we didn't have enough time at the line, and they shifted coverage at the last second.

Nope - offense is suited to like... 3 people on the team. Shady, Tyrod, and the Oline aren't part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills Fan888 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Great answers. Very impressed with Tyrod as a person and hope he can make it work eventually. I have full confidence he'll be a starter somewhere next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26TrapDraw Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Also he walked off the field like it was no big deal that's when the boos rained down. They rushed 3 and dropped 8 understandably but if Defenses say keep him in the pocket and he can't beat you guess what. You will never do anything in this pocket passing league it's a cold hard fact. Love TT as an athlete but he is exposed as a one read and go QB. You can't win in the NFL like that today period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they shifted coverage at the lest second TT should have recognized and thrown the ball away, situational football awareness 101. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royale with Cheese Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 His benching last year was unfair but this year it was warranted. He took both of them like a pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) Who else can he blame but himself? He looks TERRIBLE anytime a team drops 8 into coverage and keeps him in the pocket with a spy. It's the same performance we've seen for 3 years when teams have done this. Honestly surprised more teams haven't done it. Edited November 15, 2017 by matter2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffAlone Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 "But moving forward, the offense will be suited to Nathan" Is that supposed to mean that this is a move likely to continue the rest of this season then? Interesting wording Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Genuinely feel bad for the guy. After watching him in college I didn’t think he’d have a chance in the nfl. His hard work has paid off. He may or not be a franchise qb, but his story is that of success. Glad he’s going to make enough money over his career to support his family and more. I’ll always be a fan but I’m glad the move was made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
