Tyrod Taylor

Tyrod was all over the place this afternoon. Couldn’t find a rhythm in the passing game, was staying the pocket for too long, throws were overthrown, it was not a nice showcase for the quarterback trying to prove to everyone he can be a starter.

A lot of fans have asked for rookie quarterback Nathan Peterman to make an appearance on the field, as fans are growing thin with Taylor, but Taylor did not help himself on Sunday. His first half was embarrassing as Taylor only threw for a total of 15-yards and only managed to pickup one first down.

Taylor was sacked three times for a total loss of 18-yards and was unable to drive the Bills downfield for a game winning drive when it mattered the most. Tyrod Taylor ultimately was the number one reason why the Bills couldn’t squeak out a win against the Panthers.

Taylor was mediocre at best, going 17-25 with only 107 passing yards to show for it and no touchdown is not enough in this league. But we do have to talk about the elephant in the room, the last play of the game for the Bills.

That scary looking throw to wide receiver Zay Jones. Was the ball overthrown or simply, should Zay Jones made that catch?

Conclusively, it doesn’t matter now as the Bills were defeated by a final score of 9-3. Leave your comments down below!
