Skylar Thompson positives

[Sticky Gloves]

I think if you watch the press conference McDaniel brought up a lot of good points:

About 13:40 into this video


1. He started only 1 game previously and never finished it. The only reps he was doing was indoor with scout team reps and preseason stuff all season.
2. He's aware of the score, but no turnovers and 1 sack against the Jets
3. They had more total yards against the Jets than they did against Buffalo when they won. And the Jets are 3rd best passing D (Buffalo 15th).

Skylar's PFF grade was 73.4 against the Jets. Very solidly above average.

I’m sure the Bills are worried indeed.

 

[Tua all the haters]

We’re gonna get annihilated. It’s cool. I rather them make the right call on tua. Should have won a couple more games and we could have avoided this match up.

Gotta let the kid run if you want to have any chance with him. Open the playbook up a bit more. He did well in the pocket for the most part, made some bad reads, but overall wasnt too bad for being restricted. If they want any feasibly chance at winning this game Skylar has to run with the ball.

 

[Michael Scott]

Only question now is who Buffalo is playing in the second round.

Free win in the playoffs for them. Unreal.

 

[bigfoot]

Mike Glennon will be in this game at some point.

The line has moved to -14. Vegas begging for suckers to take the points. No way.. This is likely a 37-10 game.

Well, as long as you are sure. - LOL

Could always check the Bills forums/Reddit and see if they are worried about Skylar. Perhaps I’m wrong.

That’s not a good look for PFF.

His QB rating was 76.3 and QBR 14.8, well below average which is how he played.

ST will need to significantly step up his play while still not turning the ball over for the Dolphins to be competitive this week.

Outlook, not good.

But did you account for concussions? - LOl

 

[phinman1]

One positive is I won’t be nervous for the game…as we have no chance.

You may need to wait for next year to find out - assuming they make the playoffs then. - LOL

 

[Geordie]

Is he the first Skylar to start a playoff game at QB ? That's about all I can think of

 

[Ray R]

Mike Glennon will be in this game at some point.

Maybe, and if he does play, I hope he can restart his career.
