You make me hate being a Bills fan.

I’m glad Peterman got his much needed very necessary redemption game, where everyone was going to eat crow after he threw 3 TDs. Hopefully new threads drop by half this week.

Just went we've finally entered the Nathan Peterman era. I think you're forgetting a little movie called Rookie of the Year. Allen will come back from his arm injury with the ability to now throw the ball into the 300 level seating.

[peterman throws 4 INTs and is sacked 7 times vs the Bears] peterman apologists: I still want to see him finish out the season. He’s due for a big game and he keeps playing hard defenses and aw shucks he’s such a nice guy. Just needs a redemption game.

Why do you feel bad for him? Do you feel bad for all of the failed QBs in the league? He isn't some 1st rd blue chip prospect that completely tanked, he's a 5th rounder that should never had made a team in the first place.

Read the rest of this board, dude. A group of people on here aren't reserved to the fact that our QB3 is playing. They're relieved he finally gets to prove (for the 5th time) that he belongs in on the team. He also doesn't finish games because he plays so poorly.

You know what else is a PR nightmare? The Peterman.

i'm so perplexed by the people that continually want peterman (a QB we drafted in the 5th rd. and have since drafted another QB in the 1st) to redeem himself. why? why aren't you over him? what has he done at all to make you think that he's good? why do you think he needs redemption? and from whom?

I think the Vikings game really screwed with fans' expectations. This was going to be a rebuilding year and now fans want Beane and McDermott gone. I think it's healthy to re-visit some prognostication from August. Everyone saw this coming except fans with blinders on. The Ringer had us pegged three months ago. We should be more realistic about what we expect this year and how next year is the time for put up or shut up. 32. Buffalo Bills 2017 Record: 9-72017 Football Outsiders’ DVOA: 26th on offense; 15th on defense Best-Case Scenario: Let the Josh Allen era commence. The Bills’ brain trust made painfully clear last season that it didn’t see Tyrod Taylor as the franchise’s future at quarterback. Now, that future comes in the form of Allen, the Wyoming star (?) who completed 56.2 percent of his passes and went 16-11 over the past two seasons in the Mountain West. Buffalo had to give up a healthy sum of draft capital to get him, sending Tampa Bay two second-round picks to move up to no. 7 overall and take the big-armed, baby-faced QB who fans hope can develop into the long-awaited answer in the team’s post–Jim Kelly era. Still, the best conceivable version of Allen won’t be enough to make Buffalo league average on offense. The Bills’ offensive infrastructure has a cracked foundation, crumbling walls, and a snake infestation. That means any chance of this team rising above the dregs of the NFL rests squarely on head coach Sean McDermott’s defense. Worst-Case Scenario: About that snake-ridden shambles of an offense. The Bills may have bet big on Allen, but they’ve done him zero favors with the pieces they’ve placed around him. Buffalo’s receiving corps is devoid of high-end talent. Just a few years after trotting out Sammy Watkins, Robert Woods, Marquise Goodwin, and Chris Hogan, new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll has Kelvin Benjamin, Zay Jones, and Andre Holmes at his disposal. That is a stunningly unremarkable collection of receivers, incapable of both creating separation and reliably catching footballs—two skills that tend to be fairly important. If the pass-catching arsenal were the only problem on this offense, the Bills might be fine. We’ve seen teams overcome that with quality offensive line play and a solid running game. This year’s Bills just won’t be one of them. Buffalo still has LeSean McCoy, who has long manufactured offense in difficult circumstances, but he’s on the eve of his age-30 season and is coming off a campaign in which he averaged 4.0 yards per carry. Plus, this offseason, Buffalo swapped out two of its most effective interior linemen (center Eric Wood and guard Richie Incognito) for a guy who spent the past few seasons torpedoing the Bengals offense (new center Russell Bodine) and a lifetime replacement-level guard (Vlad Ducasse). The Bills also traded former starting left tackle Cordy Glenn to Cincinnati as part of its plan to load up for a QB. The result is a line without a single above-average starter. The problems with the offense would be less troubling if the Bills defense had a chance to carry them, but that simply isn’t realistic. Gone are the days when Buffalo’s front four terrorized quarterbacks. The Bills’ two main acquisitions up front were former Carolina defensive tackle Star Lotulelei, who commanded $18.5 million guaranteed, and former Washington second fiddle Trent Murphy. As solid as both players are, neither raises the profile of this group. First-round 2018 draft pick Tremaine Edmunds is an athletic buzzsaw who could give the Bills a new middle-of-the-field dynamic, but the rest of the front seven is uninspiring. Stat of Note: 44 percent. On first-and-long (where long represents 8 to 10 yards), the Bills’ offense handed the ball to McCoy on 121 of 316 snaps last season. It registered a success rate of 44 percent on those plays. Buffalo’s 2017 attack finished dead last in Warren Sharp’s Early Down Success Rate (EDSR), a stat that measures the percentage of a team’s first downs that come before reaching third down. EDSR is a measure of overall offensive efficiency, and the Bills’ woes in that area mirror their struggles to dictate the tone. Sports Illustrated: 1. This could be the worst offense in the league. With all due respect to LeSean McCoy’s talents, he’s not going to be able to single-handedly carry this group. Plus, he’s going to hit the downslope of his career at some point, and he turned 30 in July. No matter if it’s AJ McCarron or Josh Allen under center, the Bills will likely have a bottom-third quarterback. There’s also a chance that Nathan Peterman, he of the five-interception debut start, gets some time. Charles Clay, Kelvin Benjamin and Corey Coleman are all fine players, but they’re complementary pieces. Even with McCoy around, there’s no one to stir the drink in Buffalo’s offense, and that will be painfully obvious all year.

they put together a good halloween tale: https://deadspin.com/you-cant-escape-the-peterman-1830109503 Once upon a time there was a little-known quarterback that those brave enough to speak his name called “The Peterman.”

I think the Bills want to avoid the publicity that comes with the team that finally signs Kap. Also, WNY is bright red. There are a lot of fans that would have a problem with it. They're not going to rock the boat with the red necks.

Imagine it's Sept. 1 and you get to read a tweet from the future, and this is it.

another thread that could've been a reply to a comment.

he doesnt have an NFL arm. how many times do you have to watch him throw to the sidelines and get picked? i feel like i'm taking crazy pills. we reached in the 5th round for the guy and he's not going to work out. i hope he starts the remainder of the season, sets records for INTs and retires so you people will crawl back into your holes.

another person with under 100 comments starting bad threads. nice.

"let him shine" hahahahahahahahahahaha. you're operating in bad faith. you know he's statistically one of the worst QBs in NFL history right now. "if he pulls off a string of wins" he has 3 TDs 9 INTs and a 45% completion rate. Get your own head out of your ass.

We are an absolute embarrassment with this situation. Handcuffed to a guy who has no business playing quarterback in the NFL. This is a franchise low point for me.

What? Seriously, are you just trolling? The defense gave up 9 points in the first half. NINE. They forced NE to all but abandon the run game and made Brady throw 45 times. They ended up being responsible for giving up 18 points vs the Patriots. It's the offenses fault 100%.

You ever stop to think 'why hasn't he played two games in a row?' what's the reasoning behind that? Such an odd anomaly.

He sat his best corner for an entire super bowl. I don’t think he thinks that way.

Brady’s career is ended by a non contact injury sustained by slipping on a well-placed mat from training camp.

If Mahomes is our QB right now he’s overthrowing Benjamin on third and longs while being blitzed over and over again just like Allen. KC is stacked.

I think his point is Allen gets dissected by fans fairly and unfairly, but when those same fans discuss other rookies they give them a lot more slack (see: handicapped by the worse coach in NFL history).

Welp, I'll see you guys again for the game day thread. There's too much time between games for people to fart thoughts into threads.

$10 for Chad kelly getting hit by that vacuum hose.
