If you have ever been benched for Nathan Peterman you are no longer pro bowl eligible

Love you as a person. But God damn. 6 out of 19 completions to a WR. 2 to TE. 11 TO RUNNING BACKS. 180 yards against the 30th ranked pass defense. A big fat no no

I actually feel bad for Tyrod.  While not the greatest QB, he is far better than what this putrid offensive scheme allows him to be.  If the offense played to his athletic, mobile strengths, I could s

If he calls an audible on Sunday i will vote for him.

This is just another embarrassing moment for Bills fans. I’ve never seen a fan base attack one of their own players like this. Pathetic.

It's just a method for players to encourage fan balloting in order to draw more attention and buzz to the league.  Again, no big deal. 

If anyone here or anywhere was benched like that for Peterman, and then what happened to Peterman happened, precious few would have handled it with as much class as Tyrod Taylor.

Definitely showed class and professionalism that had to endear him to his teammates.

He still has a golden opportunity in front of him to win over all fans.

 

It's not often that a person gets so many chances.

The Bills are not good enough to beat NE even if they all play a solid game. NE would have to have a poor game for the Bills to win and when does that ever happen? Now Miami and the Colts, TT  I would expect to have pretty good games and win.

read option is ultimately a failed strategy , fun to watch, but gets QBs killed and does nothing for the pass game, which every rule in the book now favors

Well, Tyrod's style of play worked the past two years; we averaged 25-30 points per game and Tyrod managed to stay healthy.

"(Trent) Green credited Taylor with responding by staying true to himself and by displaying professionalism.

 

"He said, 'The whole thing I've been my entire career is I'm a professional. I'm going to come in and try and approach it the same and be the same every week,'" Green said.

 

It was that professionalism, Green believes, that went a long way toward inspiring other players on the team to play as well as they did to help carry the Bills to victory.

 

"The other players (who also met with CBS' broadcast team) said the amazing thing about it is, you can be divisive and try and divide the locker room, but the impressive thing was (Taylor) didn't change: his demeanor in the locker room, his attitude on the practice field, his attitude in the meetings," Green said. "He still was one of the leaders of the team trying to gather guys up and give motivational talks and try to pep guys up. And I think that that has something to do with how you're all of a sudden able to transition back into being a starter when guys see you handle things a certain way -- not being selfish, being more about the team.

 

"I think that's why the team was able to respond the way it did because they have a lot of respect for the way he handled the whole situation."

Already making excuses for Tyrod days before the game even begins. Nice.

He'll be facing the 29th ranked defense per DVOA. If they lose 56-48 I'll forgive him. But I doubt he scores more than 30.

You've seen NE the last few games. That defense is much improved. I won't forgive the defense for giving up 56.

Tyrod has a consolation prize of $14.5M for his terrible experience of not playing a game for children for 30 minutes.

 

The deification of these guys when they act like grown ups is getting absurd.

So if you were a professional football player like Tyrod and you were benched and humiliated nationally for Nathan friggin' Peterman in a huge game in a playoff hunt, who then played the worst any player has ever played in the history of the league at your very position, you would think, "Oh well, I'm cool with that, I make the same amount of money anyway."

 

Your an idiot.

Humiliated?  Who !@#$ing cares?  He went back in minutes later and started the next week.

 

Let's start a GoFundMe for you and Tyrod. Clearly, both of you are experiencing a ton of mental duress from an incident that nobody cares about from 2 weeks ago in a sports entertainment league.    Do you cycle at the same time too?

He posted a link to the Pro Bowl voting page, oh the horror. Every player up for voting does the same thing. It’s no surprise Buffalo is the laughing stock of the league, it starts with the fans embarrassing themselves every week. Jumping through tables, calling for Peterman to start, blasting their competent players. This is what 17 years with no playoffs has done.

He probably has Pro Bowl incentive money in his contract.  I'd ask for votes and stuff the ballot box myself in that case!

HE didn't make a big deal out of it. At all. In fact he impressed his teammates by not making a big deal out of it and being a total professional. He wrote one tweet. You idjits made the big deal out of it.

No, YOU did. You want to build a statue because he demonstrated some character and maturity and perspective as an almost 30 year old multimillionaire.

 

It's embarrassing.  I don't think Tyrod cares as much about his "humiliation" as you do.  Bake him some therapeutic pumpkin bread.

Read the news article that I referenced above in this thread and you would be shown to be wrong, again, as usual.

Oh come on dude.  How much money is Tyrod making this year?

 

Ridiculous.

what? He got benched playing a sport he loved for someone he was far better than. I would have thrown a fit if I were him, heck I'm throwing a fit myself on this message board. How can you say he doesn't care.

it totally matters. She was doing an in depth article about him. She was able to get him to open up and speak at length about stuff. It wasn't a press conference or anything it was a feature article and she was new to the News.

 

They spoke about all kinds of things over a long period of time. A black reporter will often ask a black person about the black experience and how it differs from their POV. She was asking specifically about that. He didnt bring it up he was asked about it, and he said what he felt. And said this has always been the way it was since he was a little kid. That is not playing the race card. He's a humble guy. 

 

It's not a black experience.  It's a subpar NFL QB experience.

 

Cam Newton not getting any roughing the passer calls (I exaggerate, but not much) might be a black experience.  Being one of the many players cut from the Eagles by Chip Kelly might be a black experience.  But Tyrod Taylor ???  Nothing he's experienced has been because of the color of his skin.  It's been because of his lack of talent.

One can argue either way whether or not what his POV and what his experience has been over his life has anything to do with race. But that's not what we were talking about. It was about whether he "played the race card." He was asked about how his experience has been and he answered honestly what he thought. Others have said similar things.

 

Playing the race card, again, to me at least, and I would imagine most people, is for him to be asked a question about why he thinks he hasn't gotten more credit, and then out of nowhere, said it was because he was black and was treated differently. That's "playing the race card."

Tyrod should be running a LOT. That's his skill. The Bills are incredibly lucky that the chiefs were so awful. A mediocre offensive performance beats the Bills handily last SUN.

But he said that expectations were higher because he's a black QB.  That's him asserting that he's being treated differently based on the color of his skin.  By your definition, that's playing the race card.  We have the same definition, by the way.  Again - if I've somehow misunderstood what he said, I'm very open to correction.
