The Red King Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 This is sad. Offseason chat, maybe, but the regular season is here. Tyrod needs to be focusing on it, not grousing about things that happened in Buffalo. Tyrod is a Cleveland Brown now, he owes it to his current team to be giving them his undivided attention at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRush Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I love Tyrod as a person. Seems like a real good guy, but he did frustrate me as a QB. I think the last straw was in jacksonville. The D put the team on striking distance to win and he couldn’t score more than 10 points. That’s when I knew Tyrod and Dennison were done. it really makes me wonder what happens if Dennison was never hired. What if it were McCoy or Childress who took the job? Do they design an offense around Tyrod? Because with Dennison the only good bing you could about Tyrod was “well at least he doesn’t throw INTs”. Interesting to think about.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Taylor was nothing special at Virginia Tech. He was a low draft pick and wouldn't have been that if not for his legs. He was a mediocre quarterback for the Bills. Eventually you sit when you hold the ball too long, lock on one receiver, and are not anything special as a passer.

Steptide Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Sorry if already mentioned, but Tyrod was benched the last game of 16 because of an injury clause in his contract. If he was hurt in the game, he was owed his full 17 salary and the bills did t know what they were gonna do with him at that point. Tyrod knew this, cmon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrod will end up with another winning season With his conservative play and a few huge plays per game. Some biils fans will continue to spew hate, some may come to belive or already do that he is better than what we have starting now... and Cleveland fans clamoring for mayfield now, will get it at some point and be super disappointed..

The bottom line is Tyrod three for 56 yards against the Saints in an emabarassibg QB display seen in years. That’s why he got bench. Bottom line. Um, he's not talking about that benching.

atlbillsfan1975 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Why is this being discussed? Tyrods greatest asset is his class. I am going to believe he was asked and answered a question and is not just throwing aspersions at his old employer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's actually not too uncommon for a team to bench their starter when the game is meaningless (for better or worse). Seems to me it happens all the time Matt Flynn in GB a few years back comes to mind as a famous one (when he threw 7 tds) 2017: -Goff vs 49ers -Alex Smith vs Broncos -Big Ben vs Browns The reason you don't see it "all the time" is that week 17 is actually a meaningful game for many teams. Even the top teams are typically fighting for home field/seeding in the last week of the season. There was also a reason for Tyrod to be benched, as was said in other posts, that he was fully guaranteed for 2017 season if he was injured, and since the Bills weren't sure if they were keeping him yet, they decided to protect themselves and bench him in a meaningless game. 7 minutes ago, 26CornerBlitz said: It's even in the thread title as a slight hint. yeah, I reread gunner's post though, HE was referring to 2017, in response to another post.
