I’m baffled by this. When they signed Anderson I thought that McDermott had finally come to his senses and signed someone who could passibly play if Allen got injured. But now it appears that they are paying Anderson to be a mentor, which should be the coaches job, while keeping Peterman as the backup, even though he has shown no signs of being able to play. I don’t get it but maybe I’ll see the light as the season progressed.

You know what else would have resulted in a Bills win? ...

Because now we have to keep 3 QBs on the roster because our backup can't play or mentor Allen.

Maybe he can bring Chan Gailey out of retirement. With McDermott not giving a crap about offense and Gailey not giving a crap about defense it might be a match made in heaven.

Then get a QB coach and save the roster spot for a player.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but isn’t this kind of advice what the coaches are for? Players are supposed to play. Can Anderson play?

I don't think so. It's become clear to me that McDermott and Beane are going to ship out every single player that was here when they arrived. By the end of next season I predict everyone will be gone. No way Glenn would have survived. Dawkins at LT was always the plan, if not year one then by this year for sure.

Which facts? There are many versions...

As I posted above I think Allen made the correct read throwing to Holmes, but another option that I would like to see him consider more often is to throw a high ball to Benjamin when he's 1v1 like this with a safety. Yes he's covered, but he towers over that guy and it would be a big gain. This offense needs to roll the dice a little on plays like this because they're not talented enough to drive the field consistently.

He's not going to develop if he goes out there and gets crushed. He will develop bad habits, get his confidence shattered and/or get injured. They are only going to give him responsibilities at the rate that he can handle them. Based on what we've seen so far it appears that is limited so he's going to be "hidden" for a while as he slowly learns.

Tell that to McDermott.

Apparently the Bills are everyone's trap game. ?

I wonder what it will take for McDermott to finally concede that Peterman isn't an NFL QB.

Allen is expecting Holmes to continue across the field so he leads him and Holmes stops instead. It's plain as day. I'm not sure why Holmes would stop that route since the area he was running into was wide open. This may look like an inaccurate throw but it was a case of the QB and WR not being on the same page.

I was so supremely confident that Norwood was going to make that and that the Bills were a burgeoning dynasty that I wasn't really any more worried than today when it meant very little by comparison. I know it's probably hard to fathom but that team was so good that fans just expected them to find a way to win every game they played, no matter who it was against and no matter what the score was.

This twitter stream is ridiculous. The world is doomed.

OL played their best game.

He looked good to the naked eye. I'm curious to see how many snaps he got.

No, but he's not going to sit back there like a deer in headlights either. He will be fine.

It's funny how many people spin whatever happens on the field to fit their narratives instead of just taking what occurred at face value.

Weird.

OL played very well today. Probably need to leave them out of it.

I'm confused. Is this a tank season or not? When they lose we hear that it's all part of the master plan. Trust the process. When they win we hear how silly anyone who ever doubted them is.

It's about time. I've been wondering how the Bills can possibly keep going with Peterman as the backup.

He hasn't been great, but he's the best TE on the roster. You can't keep cutting your starting players without having a replacement in hand if you want to win games. You just keep digging yourself a bigger hole. If they find someone better then by all means cut him, but until then he should stay.
