He has been decidedly not awful, and early in this Bills season, that will have to do. Through the first six quarters of this season the Bills were outscored 75-9, at which point cornerback Vontae Davis retired. When the team got off to an improbable 5-2 start last season under new coach Sean McDermott, it was all very unlike them. Instead of building on the unexpected playoff appearance, the Bills traded Taylor to Cleveland, signed career backup A.J. The short answer is that the Bills were awful last season, too, especially late, but they survived thanks to timely turnovers and, incredibly, Andy Dalton.
