Tyrod looked pretty bad and they were forced to throw Mayfield in there (actually I think Tyrod technically got hurt). But if Tyrod starts playing like he did in Buffalo, he is a good bridge QB and someone to hold down the fort until their young gun is ready. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Yep, that’s what they thought in Cleveland. Sorry, Tyrod is what he is. There is no mystery, no untapped potential. Solid person, below average QB skills. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 That’s Taylor’s niche. He’s a modestly compensated (by NFL standards), bridge QB. I tip my hat to him for making a fine living by doing that. The only issue with him here was that most Bills fans convinced themselves that he was more than that when the team ignored the need at QB and kept trotting him out as the starter. Then they got pissy when he didn’t live up to that hype. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheektowaga Chad Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I have a feeling that Lynn is going to try to run the Greg Roman offense with Taylor. If it works is another question because taylor isnt Lamar jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Herbert is overated. Put up tons of stats against easy competition in non-conferemce games. Wasn't that good against better competition. If TT stays healthy, the Chargers can win 8 or more games and be in WC hunt. I had then finishing second in AFC West prior to James injury. My guess is the Raiders, Chargers, and Broncos will all finish with 7 to 9 wins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnNord Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I don’t think we’ll see a whole new Tyrod in 2020. He’ll be exactly what he’s been his whole career. We’ll see him make some good plays with his legs, take care of the football, and probably hit a few nice deep passes downfield. If the team can get ahead he’ll do a very good job nursing that lead. I don’t think he’ll be the QB who can bring you back when falling behind or the QB who can lead the team to a TD on the last drive. If anything, we know that Tyrod is a really good person so I’m rooting for him in SD. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Tyrod is in his 10th year in the NFL and has made millions of dollars-not bad for a 6th round pick, and he has a Super Bowl ring from his days backing up Joe Flacco. He's overachieved his whole career in spite of a limited amount of talent. He must be very well liked among his teammates to last this long. He & Fitz have done more with little than most backups/part time starters. Both are starting opening day-amazing! 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireChans Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 5 minutes ago, MJS said: Why is that? Because Tyrod is a one dimensional player who is relatively easy for competent defensive coordinators to stop. Baker kinda sucked last year and he was still better than Tyrod in Cleveland. Tyrod was borderline unplayable by the end of his tenure there. Got worse every year. Was bad in Buffalo near the end. He’s toast. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBills1998 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I’ve heard some rumors about Herbert not looking good in practice and a couple charger fans I know weren’t thrilled with him and one of them hated when they picked him in the draft. Herbert honestly to me is either going to be great or he’s going to turn into Brock Osweiler 2.0 there’s not gonna be an in between with him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t throw a lot of INTS and he was able to move the chains, 16 is where the wheels started to fall off as defenses fingered him out and he never adjusted and 17 while we went to the playoffs, I knew he wasn’t the answer but I didn’t care at that point because we broke the playoff drought.

BuffaloBillies Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I'm also a TT defender. Our OL was not very good for him at all. Defenders in the backfield often immediately. His legs and quickness prevented many more negative plays. Yes, he could pull the trigger quicker, but I think he has a winner's mentality and demeanor. Wish him well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, because he's black, he's held to a higher standard (his words, not mine) .. but he has sucked ever since he entered the NFL. To this day, Beane's biggest accomplishment was getting a 3rd round pick for this piece of crap. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Tyrod was undervalued in his time here. He was a fine bridge QB that didn’t make mistakes. You didn’t win or lose because of Tyrod. That’s why he won more games than he lost here. It’s no surprise that he is filling that bridge role. The Chargers are better this year with Tyrod’s caretaking than with Rivers 23 turnovers. Don’t @ me 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefan66 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) He’s a .500 kind of guy. Will do just enough to keep them in games. Looking at their schedule, it looks to favor TT. Worst of it is the Chiefs and Saints in the first 5 games. They play two each against the Raiders and Broncos in the division . Toss the Phins, bengals and Jets in there, isn’t a terrible schedule. Have a good defense that can help keep them in games. Edited September 3, 2020 by davefan66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
