Tyrod Taylor: Should You Care About Him With the Playoffs Approaching?

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 40% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Tyrod Taylor came into Sunday after looking beaten up with an arm/shoulder injury in that brawl that was the Patriots/Bills game last Monday night, and he was also going on the road to face a Chiefs defense this week that had clearly gotten it together and had been playing lights out. Taylor responded by going to his best weapon, Sammy Watkins, early and often. TyGod finished the game with 21 completions on 38 attempts for 291 yards, three touchdowns, and zero turnovers. He also rushed for 46 yards on five attempts.

While Buffalo faces another defense that is red hot in the Texans next week, they then get the Eagles, Redskins, Cowboys, and Jets to finish up 2015. A stretch against the NFC East right now could play very well, as we can all see that two 5-6 teams sit atop it, and the Eagles are a dumpster fire right now. With Karlos Williams not 100%, this also digs a bit into the effectiveness of the run game, meaning Tyrod might just have to step up a little (literally). He's showing good development through this year both with his arm and with his head (the legs have been there), and he can definitely be an asset to your team down the stretch.
