I feel the same way; except Brady would shred my team's D

but I am of the belief that it's best to never wish injuries upon an opposing player, and you should always want to play the best men that your opponents can field

anything else and you are a fucking joke

I must be a fucking joke then. I don't wish injury on any opponent in the league.. except for Tom Brady. I would literally throw a party if he died in a car crash.

I thought so too. One of my "make a crazy football prediction" posts here was that he'd win the starting job in Buffalo. Just a month ago he was considered a REALLY long shot, but I never thought so. I hope he wins the job. A QB with wheels like that in a Greg Roman offense with that many playmakers on O? Forget about it.

Taylor looked serviceable. EJ has looked like garbage outside of a couple scrambles. But neither one of them has exactly lit it up through the air. It's starting to look like whoever gets the first TD will win the job.

The browns qb situation looks even worse. Mccown is the same guy he has always been which isn't a good thing. Meanwhile Johhny football looks like he needs a drink. You think Lebron can throw the ball?
 
Tyrod looked serviceable? Who's your team again? Would you like to make a season record bet? Because if he's the QB I can only think of a handful of teams that are going to have a better record than the Bills. I'm willing to take the chance that you're a Colts or or Seattle fan.

Put your player assessment skills to the test or stfu.

I root for the Eagles. I'll take that bet. Putting up 11 points against the Browns isnt much to get excited about man. I do love your passion though.
 
lmao points in a preseason game are meaningless. I saw enough over the past month and a half to know we'll do a lot better than the Eagles this year. Mark that down as my third NFL bet on BL this season. If the Eagles win more games than the Bills I'll sport your team logo for 2 months. If I'm wrong about the Bills I'll literally be wearing 3 teams' logos as my avatar well into next season.

But I'm not worried about that. At all. I think a lot of you motherfuckers are going to be sporting Bills logos this year,

I'm cool with the bet but just for the record I think a good season for the Eagles would be making the divisional round of the playoffs. I really feel like Philly and Buffalo are in similar situations. Talented teams that lack a solid qb to elevate them to SB contender status. The Bills are going to struggle to score enough points to win against good teams.
 
Yeah I know. I just get excited during games(even preseason). ;)

I did like what I saw from Tyrod last night though. He still looked decent even though our top 5 RBs and top 4 WRs were out of the game. Basically working with guys that probably won't even make the team and still made some plays.

Right...he was running with purpose not cause he was confused on panicking
made good decisions throwing the ball also

He seems to have a lot more touch on his throws than I originally thought. I'll be pretty psyched if he's named the starter.

probably gonna happen man
ej manuel shouldnt be getting smashed against 3rd stringers.

but ill be honest also....to me manuel wasnt shit at FSU...i dont know what they saw in him
 
as a Virginia Tech fan I watched every single play of Tyrod Taylor throughout his collegiate career. IMO he's the best running QB that isn't prime Vick.

it's been awhile since i really watched him play but i remember his problem was always try to prove that he could pass and not just scramble, but he's nothing more than a mediocre passer and hopefully he's realized that by now.

there were so many times id be yelling at the tv for him to just run the goddamn ball because even with the slightest openings he can make big plays.
 
Yeah but to be fair you have to try to show you can pass to improve you draft stock. So its like a catch 22..and i dont recall vt every being in contention for a national championship during those years so he was really playing for himself

they were always ranked when he was on the team and as high as #5 when they had ryan williams and david wilson as well. damn if only those two could stay healthy :(

oh yeah knew that, they were a real good team, i was always excited to watch them on tv
i just didnt think they were contending for a championship, i think if they were he would have run more and took control of more games with his feet
 
That's what Tyrod is doing now, trying to show he can be an effective pocket passer and not always looking to run as soon as things break down. In the NFL, you HAVE to be able to pass from the pocket. If you try to run every play you're going to get destroyed. But so far he's been doing well. He's had some really nice passes so far this preseason. Some nice deep ones too.

And I realize everyone has already written off Manual, but I've watched him VERY closely over the past 2 years. He's improved this year and has even been progressing a little sincer the beginning of training camp. When you take into considering his playing with a 3rd string Oline and 3rd string receivers/RBs, he's doing some nice things. And he's had at least the nicest 3-4 thrown balls in all of preseason so far for the Bills. If he's not good enough to be a starter, he's definitely one of the best backups in the league. I can only think of a handful of 2nd string QBs I'd rather field than Manuel at this point.

Ideally what I would like to see happen is Tyrod start and EJ be his backup. Cut Cassell and save $5 million in cap space.

tell that to 2001-2006 Michael Vick.

for Taylor to succeed he needs to open up the passing game with his legs. he'll never be an effective pocket passer and he needs to accept that.

i see he's been getting a good amount of rush yards this preseason, and im not saying he needs to run every play but from what i remember there would be times he could have ran for a first down on 3rd but decides to throw an incomplete pass. just take what the defense gives you.

that reminds me i always used to tell my brother how he was the best deep passer in college football lol. he seemed to be more accurate throwing deep than the short-medium passes.
