The main 2 reasons this game was lost today IMO. Defense let Bortles get out of hand a with the scrambling some and dropped 2 INTs, but overall gave the offense PLENTY of chances. This falls on the OC and Taylor all the way IMO I wish I could agree with this 10X because it hit the nail on the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 I'm changing my position and I am admitting that I was completely WRONG about Tyrod Taylor, I do not want him back here under any circumstances. Send KC a 3rd for Alex Smith and draft Mason Rudolph. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can move on from TT at anytime. No big loss. I have been watching all season, I have also seen who the Bills were throwing out at QB for the past 14 years before then. Although you could do a lot better than Tyrod I think you can do much much worse. If the choice is Alex Smith or Tyrod Taylor, a 2nd round pick, and 4.5 million dollars in cap space give me the latter. I would rather draft a rookie and have him beat out Tyrod. Having a decent QB such as Tyrod is a luxury, allow a rookie to sit for their first season, if they play good enough to beat out Tyrod then fine, but you don't address the QB situation by getting rid of the QB and not having a coherent plan in place to do so. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norcalbillsfan Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Already excited about this off season, just made playoffs with a team that's just ahead of browns and colts talent wise. There's gonna be decent fa pocket passers available and promising draft class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have many draft picks and there are a few tradeable/signable QBs. I'm sure there is a plan to get rid of his garbage play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing about Tyrod is a luxury. And though I do agree you can do worse, we have the cap flexibility and draft capital to get a real QB, so we HAVE to try.

Perry Turtle Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 The time to get rid of Taylor was the 2017 draft when Watson fell to the 10th pick. Let's hope that the same mistake doesn't happen in the 2018 draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 I think we do need to move from TT. He was the leader of this offense but he's not good enough. I'm thankful that he helped us get to the playoffs but it's time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between, TT and Dennison, our O is a lost cause. Will never happen, he is so scared of turning the ball over because it's the only real positive he has as a QB. Those down field and tight coverage throws are pathetic, seem to be purposely over/under thrown to stay away from the defender. I sure hope I don't have to watch him anymore. And kick that OC out with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leonbus23 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 17 minutes ago, billsfan89 said: I honestly think that you can only move on from Tyrod if it is a substantial upgrade or a rookie with promise. A slight upgrade or lateral move like Alex Smith would not work, why give up assets and cap space to be marginally better at QB? Even if they draft a rookie I would still want Tyrod on the roster. Peterman is ass and they shouldn't force a rookie into action if that rookie can't beat out Tyrod. If a rookie can't beat out Tyrod let Tyrod hang in there for one more year and slowly build up the talent on the team around a young promising QB who can learn a system and get use to being a pro for awhile. Nonsense. Smith is way better. But I think they need to draft a QB high in the 1st round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And though I do agree you can do worse, we have the cap flexibility and draft capital to get a real QB, so we HAVE to try. My original premise was that the Bills should spend a high draft choice on a QB, maybe even trade up to get one. But then they should keep Tyrod for one more year in order to not have to start a rookie on a team that might not be ready or in a bad situation. Tyrod can be a placeholder QB for one more season, are the free agent QB's that you can get cheaper any better? No not really, are the QB's you would be trading for any better (At best a marginal upgrade like Alex Smith) I don't think it's worth it. Draft a QB early and have Tyrod be the guy they have to beat out for the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_In_NH Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 I know he is just a rookie but I have seen enough of Peterman too. I know he will be back because of his age/contract but I dont see a lot of hope in him. I support getting Alex Smith or Case Keenum and drafting a guy.

Lurker Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Today's silver lining is that there's absolutely no evaluation needed at the QB position. It's all up to the college and pro player personnel department and McBeane to pick the best guy for the future. They better find some competent WR help as well, but that shouldn't be too difficult.
