Yeah, but Bortles is still young and visibly improving quite a bit. We know Tyrod's ceiling. Have for a year and a half, really. Kornheiser's statement is an obvious exaggeration at a moment of excitement. He doesn't even rule out 3rd stringers. Clearly an exaggeration. I'm actually a Kornheiser fan. I lived in Northern Virginia and worked in D.C. for many years and read his stuff in the Post. Also have bought a couple of his books. The guy is genuinely funny. A hell of a writer.

row_33 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 After plenty of second-guessing and agonizing I conclude that Peterman was worse than Tyrod, and to be quite honest a few scrubs and never-rans since 1973 as well were worse than Tyrod.

You know one of the 3 Tyrod threads you have started on the front page, maybe if you keep all your Tyrod threads all in one place people won't end up bumping someone else' s Tyrod thread.

You mean the TWO that are there, one of which I posted purely about Dennison regarding how the Bills had the most stuffed runs (0 yards or less) in the NFL on 1st and 2nd down (was Tyrod even talked about in the OP?) and the other that's really just been good fun responding to Crusher-under-a-new-name? Okay, Eeyore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, Eeyore. He sucks get over it. If the next qb sucks he will get bashed too. Just like the previous 5 or so QBs Worst passer ever per Kornheiser.

He was a huge E.J. supporter as well. Thats what our generation used to do. In today’s world of instant gratification that just doesn’t compute.

He was a huge E.J. supporter as well. Thats what our generation used to do. In today’s world of instant gratification that just doesn’t compute. For me it's not about instant gratification. It's about performance over a period of time. Sometimes you need more time to evaluate a player (like tyrod, after 2 seasons, I was sure of what he was, which looks to be correct after the third year) Sometimes, you just know right away (ej, losman, Rob Johnson) I'm all for giving Peterman more chances, but I'm not sure enough about him to pass on somebody this year. I was a bledsoe fan, a flutie fan, hell I liked Edwards and gave him a shot, but I'm also realistic. I think a lot of people set expectations too high from the get go, then when somebody doesn't look like the "second coming of Jim Kelly" after the first couple of starts, we automatically call them a bust. I'm rambling. I would love a franchise elite qb. I'll be happy with a very good QB. I'd rather not settle on an average at best QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end....this is true Tyrod's game though several different OC's is very steady for a QB...unfortunately its not improving in areas that it needs to in order to keep the wagon hitched to him....Bortles is not a good qb....but has a chance to get better.

Steady is a proper word. Steady at being mediocre and steady in the respect of not being good enough to grasp victory from the jaws of defeat. That's why it sucks. 3 hours ago, dlonce said: Thats what our generation used to do. In today’s world of instant gratification that just doesn’t compute.

buffalobloodfloridahome Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 The Biggest Frustration about Bortles is that the guy has the size arm strength mobility and the ability to be a great Qb. He thinks he can just skate by on his skill and not apply himself (He Likes to Party). If he had half the heart and drive that Tyrod has he'd be incredible. The flip side is Tyrod doesn't have anything but drive he has a decent arm and bad accuracy he's short but athletic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe because he's 2-3 years younger than tyrod so he is just entering his typical "prime" for most athletes Or maybe it's just fool's gold and bortles still sucks and will regress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
