Irv Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 (edited) Seeing the vitriol directed at Peterman for throwing picks, I look back and no longer blame Tyrod for being overly conservative. At the end of the day one guy is probably heading out out of the league as one of the biggest laughing stocks in the history of sports, has a GoFundMe set up for his retirement, and is getting food thrown at him. The other one still has a job and his diginty. Edited November 7, 2018 by Irv 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuncha Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Tyrod isn't conservative- he isn't a good passing QB. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rigotz Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 (edited) We got a very high third round pick in exchange for Tyrod. That was a great deal for us. He will never be a great QB. You need a great QB to win consistently in the NFL. Nothing else, including this thread, matters. Edited November 7, 2018 by Rigotz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swnybillsfan Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 i also say yes. because to be a successful qb in this league, you must spray that ball all over the field. you have to be able to process the information incredibly quick, believe in yourself, and fire that ball in an instant!

jletha Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Do you think its possible that there may be a happy medium between throwing 12 picks in 130 pass attempts and what tyrod used to do? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other one still has a job and his diginty. Was there an incident where Peterman had stuff thrown at him? There's no reason for that. He's just a dude with a unique job. If you're used car salesman that sucks at your job, nobody's gonna throw a greasy banana peel at you for it. Some people, man. And as for Taylor being conservative... I'd say "hesitant" is a better term to describe his playing style. For one, he struggles to see the entire field due to his height. Yeah, there are windows and lanes and angles to look through but they're not easy to spot all the time. On top of that, one of Taylor's drawbacks has always been his inability (or unwillingness) to throw with anticipation or throw his receivers open. He's a "see it, throw it" passer. Has to see that his target is sufficiently open before he fires it. I wonder if he still would've played like that even if the Bills had a Calvin Johnson-type receiver, one of those "open no matter what" kinda guys.

uticaclub Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Tyrod lighting in up in Cleveland really makes us look like *****. Oh wait.....

row_33 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 how could a man get to be a #1 QB in the NFL without having remotely developed the ability to throw to where his WR is heading? children start to work on this concept when they are 5 years old TT was amazing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marv's Neighbor Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I think they both recognize that they have to stick to the coach's game plan, and that, along with their individual talents are what we get to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I always appreciated Tyrod for what he was: a great scrambler, a good guy, and a poor passer who - at least - didn't throw many picks. I was disappointed when he was traded because I knew he'd actually be difficult to replace. But I could also see where Beane was coming from. Tyrod is not a Super Bowl caliber QB so why are we wasting money on him when the goal is to get to the SB? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Sad day when Bills fans are debating Tyrod & Peterman. The future is Josh Allen #17. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
