I’ve come to terms that he’ll likely never get a ring. I think he’s going to need a 2015 manning situation where he’s got a top defense and decent run game. Don’t think Colts are a QB away from being that. But, I’d like to see him go somewhere else and flourish his last few years, to shut all the haters up.

I’m also not opposed to starting Taylor and becoming a run-first offense. Who knows maybe this is what TT was talking about when he said we need players who fit the scheme.
Like I repeatedly explain... it’s not that complicated to understand the fascination with Taylor... what’s Rivers 2 most obvious flaws? His immobility and him turning the ball over right? Taylor is mobile. Doesn’t turn the ball over. People ignore the other aspects of his game and solely focus on those two. Not ideal, but not difficult to understand why people want him to start.

Those of us strongly opposed to starting Taylor understand your points and still think it would be a big mistake to go with him at QB. Yes he is more mobile, yet has been sacked at nearly twice the rate that Rivers has been in his career. We'd be in long yardage situations all game long. And he doesn't turn the ball over because he refuses to pass the ball if his primary receiver is not wide open. Someone in another thread called it criminal that Rivers average less than 2 TD passes per game this season, yet Taylor has averaged 0.77 TD passes per game for his career. He has been let go and benched by multiple teams for a reason. He is fine as a backup, but I just don't see the fascination with this guy.

Rivers is immobile, yes. But he avoids a lot of sacks by putting the team in the right plays and protections and making good reads and still has fast decision making and a quick release. Taylor can run around but he cannot do the other stuff.
TGLike, how am I a traitor? Your team are traitors.

That being said - a few things must happen
- special teams get better
- shore up DT and LB a bit. Too the point , with Adderley hopefully healthy, Phillips back - am fine with not adding a DB until Round 5 or so of the draft if need be
- fix the damn OL and to properly fix the OL
- sign Rivers but he is going to have to give a good deal realizing they signed OL
If TT and Lynn do the above - they will be better than the Rams next year - health willing.

I've had SD commutes (South Bay to North County and back) that took more than 2 hrs one way (knock off traffic I-15 south from Vista to the I-8 could sometimes take more that 2 hrs). It was more efficient (cost, lifestyle, and family disturbance) for me to live on one end of the county and work on the other.
Maybe Philip felt the same.
