Bills Extend Tyrod Taylor Fans Shrug
By Steve
Where are the hotttt taeks???!??! It seems like hashtag billsmafia is pretty ambivalent about Tyrod Taylor's new "6 year $90 mil extension".
There are offsets, limited gaurantees, incentives and a few years of contract talk silence but no anger or joy. Interesting.
The Bills could have just paid tiny Ty the $3 mil he was owed this year and tagged him for $20ish next year. But they still would have had this hanging over their head and had rumblings by players about committing to the players. So they signed him earlier than expected at a decent price.
He's only played 14 games and was average (well a bit better than average) last year. He was seemingly always hurt albeit only missed 2 games and "made the pro bowl" whatever that means.
$15 mil per puts him at about 22nd in the league in pay at his position. Isn't that about right?
The deal will either look great in 3 years or horrible. Taylor could outplay the contract and hold out for more money in a few seasons (which would mean hes playing really well) or he could be cut after next season.
So the correct response is a shrug. No more contract talk, its now time to put up and stay healthy.
Oh yeah and fire Russ Brandon.

Terry Pegula Answers the TOUGH QUESTIONS
By Steve
Gotta love Terry Pegula answering the TOUGH QUESTIONS on his paid for 5 hour commercial on WGR550 from 10am to 3pm with his lackeys as the hosts.
Injuries? Not as bad as last year!
Internal strife? No way Jose! Its just positive conversations.
I watch film with Rex!
Russ Brandon running both franchises despite "being a baseball guy" has been great! Raise prices, lose fail repeat!
16 years of no playoffs? No no no. To my mind it has only been 1!
Im glad the Rams went back to LA!
This whole thing is the biggest fairy tail ive ever seen. The guy never faces the media, never answers a tough questions and instead buys 5 hours on commercials from 10am to 3 pm every day on the only local sports station in town. Incredible.
Weeeeeeee
