Jsixspd Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Wonder if Taylor is playing with an 'attitude' after the team traded Watkins? We know the trade didn't make him happy.He's far from being a great QB, but he's usually never this bad. He made Ryan Fitzpatrick's 40 rating yesterday look good by comparison.

That Aud Smell Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Wonder if Taylor is playing with an 'attitude' after the team traded Watkins? We know the trade didn't make him happy. He's far from being a great QB, but he's usually never this bad. He made Ryan Fitzpatrick's 40 rating yesterday look good by comparison. You raise a fair point, I think. Taylor had developed timing with a trio of receivers who aren't here anymore. Maybe he just needs some time. He's not THAT bad. Also, I think he needs more pistol formations.

LGR4GM Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Don't remember it it was here or not, but I'm certain that I was laughed at when bortles was drafted and I called him Blaine gabbert. Blake Bortles, Blane Gambert, Carson Wentz. Not good QB names. Derek Carr, solid QB name. I'd use 2 picks in this draft on QB. a 1st and a 2nd or 3rd depending on how things shake out. The other picks in the first 3 rounds I draft all the offensive lineman and maybe 1 WR. So 2QB, 3OL, 1WR with those top 6 picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they both shot up draft boards while continuing to be unimpressive and incredibly bland. They are an American cheese sandwich on plain white bread with the crusts cut off.

Doohickie Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Why is McCoy touching the ball though Because he's the next to be traded. :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) And David Carr? Derek Carr, He has a solid name. A good name doesn't guarantee you will be good but a bad name means you will suck. Drew Breez, Matt Ryan, Aaron Roger, Tom Brady all solid qb names.

jeffismagic Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 This 2017 Bills season brought to you by Russ Brandon. No coaching search. No GM search. No attempt to improve the QB position. Trading away talent for scraps. Sean Jauron likes to punt the ball, just like Brandon's other head coach picks in Rex and Marrone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted August 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Derek Carr, He has a solid name. A good name doesn't guarantee you will be good but a bad name means you will suck. Drew Breez, Matt Ryan, Aaron Roger, Tom Brady all solid qb names. But David Carr is...almost the same? Either way, I'm happy with these Bills. Solid coaching search Got their GM with a good reputation Brought back their starting QB, brought in TJ Yates as a proven backup, and drafted another one in attempts to imrpove the QB position Traded away talent they couldn't sign for picks in a rebuilding year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is that Derek Carr has a solid name and therefore can be a good QB. If his name was David Carloserman... nah man, he gonna suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) Wait, you really don't know who David Carr is? Yes he was a QB but we are talking about Derek Carr, his brother I believe. Again a good name doesn't guarantee that you will be good. Just that a bad name will mean you are bad. Edited August 18, 2017 by LGR4GM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Buffalo Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) Yates stinks. That last throw announcer said was a miscommunication, but an obvious misread on a DB sitting on the under route. The reciever saw it and adjusted. QB has to make that read. Even Peterman could have made that adjustment. Not sure Yates makes the final cut. Edited August 18, 2017 by North Buffalo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good QB name means you CAN be good. A bad QB name means you just will be bad. It's just a fun theory, not sure why you are up in arms dissecting it.

inkman Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Derek Carr, He has a solid name. A good name doesn't guarantee you will be good but a bad name means you will suck. Drew Breez, Matt Ryan, Aaron Roger, Tom Brady all solid qb names. If only you knew their names (Drew Brees, Aaron Rogers) :nana: Yeah but we were comparing names to QB talent Derek Carr => great QB, great name David Carr => crap QB, almost the same name as Derek Carr though Let's face it, Derek sounds tough and bad ass with its hard consonants. Dave sounds like the produce manager at Piggly Wiggly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffismagic Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) Howard WGRVerified account @hsimon62 2h2 hours agoMore according to @PFF Peterman was 9-12 for 160 yds with clean pocket last night and 1-8 for 7 yards when under pressure Sounds like a typical Bills QB such as Losman, Edwards, EJ Manuel, and Tuel. When the bullets start flying he turns into in a pumpkin. Just praying that they hire someone in the next 10 years who understands modern passing and QB play.

ubkev Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Back to QB names. If the QB has a name that could be the lead character in an action movie, he'll be a good QB. If he doesn't, crap QB. Is there a Lincoln Hawk available in next year's draft? If so, draft the outta that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
