Yes ,if you don't panic.
Political correctness ( or cancel culture as it is called today) is a doctrine fostered by a delusional ,illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by MSM which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
Harry S Truman 1941.
Tyrod Taylor is the QB for next year. I would bet on that.
Whatever opinions there are about that is beside the point. Whether that's good or bad is another matter.
I think the Bills will go with him again next year. Next year is the future, right?

It depends on what he does this next 5 games. I definitely agree he's gonna be here next year. But I also think there's a good possibility some more competition is brought in via draft, FA or both. Make him compete for it. He has been better than EJ ever could and a positive change overall but he's far from the real deal.
Voted yes and was amazed at the amount of no's...
I had to bump this thread/poll to see If anyone is having second thoughts,
any takers?
If not, yell at me or something...
64.9 completion percentage with 17/4 TD/INT and 2171 yards passing. 318 rushing yards with 3 TD. 6-4 record in 10 starts.
Unless he totally implodes this season, I think you have to go into 2016 with him as the unanimous starter and if he puts up similar numbers next year you have to make him the "franchise guy" and give him a franchise QB contract. He fits well in this offense and his 4 losses are to the Pats 2x, Bengals, and Giants. The Bills are going to have a need in the first few rounds of the draft more than likely on the OL, LB, WR, and possibly DL positions and taking a flyer on a QB that probably doesn't overtake him as a starter would be silly at this point. And by all accounts, he is a Rex guy and would probably start here for the duration that Rex is the coach here.

after Sundays performance I'll say that he looked a little better throwing the ball over the middle. maybe he is headed in the right direction who knows, I'll keep hoping he is though but I wan't to see him win a game by himself. Like Jim Kelly stated before a NFL quarterback must be able to put the team on his back at least 3 games a year and win a game by himself more or less. Taylor has shown he can throw a nice deep ball and a dump off but I wan't to see more pass's like I seen Sunday over the middle like the one Clay dropped. those are big time NFL pass's that's a must. If TT can keep improving in that dept he just might change my mind.

He's the QB at least through 2016. No one is replacing him now.
His last 8 games..2 turnovers and 15 TD's. Find a NFL coach who would dislike that. Progressing from 1 read and run to 2 reads and run to hopefully seeing more of the field going forward. Outstanding deep ball. Highest rated NFL passer in the 4th quarter. Pretty good for a 1st year starter with obvious upside.
Yeah..by all means bench him and go shake that QB tree. College is full of pro ready QB's making 3 reads and rarely turning the ball over.

He's an accurate passer, he protects the football well, and he's been getting better in the pocket each week. It's his first season as a starter.... if we drafted a guy this year that played as well as Tyrod I think the overall tone of the discussions regarding him would be a lot more positive.
Figster (12-07-2015)
For right now he is...
Tyrod sucks...
one things for sure , the quarterback position is better than it has been now the Bills brass shouldn't sit on there arss and say ok we are fine at QB. keep drafting no matter. If a guy comes in and is better than TT then the team gets better. every position should be looked at this way. never should the brass ever say they are set at any position.
I can accept the reality that the Bills need to give Tyrod one more year to see if he can put it all together. If he can play like he did against the Texans for 13-16 games next year then I would give him the nod as the Bills' starter for the foreseeable future.
Of course. Yes

Of course he is. We're going to sign him to an $82m extension. Haven't you heard?
