  1. You are missing the point. He is still green.

     

    The last time he was thrust in when he was green it went very badly.

     

    If he has any chance of developing he must do it in practice first. Jeff Tuel got rid of the ball fast too...

    I hope you can admit that Peterman looks better than Tuel.

    I get the whole, he's not ready thing but you don't know until you try. The kid has a moxie about him that is surprising for a rookie. Couple that with the recognition by many " Experts" as being the most Pro Ready QB in the past draft.

  2. It means they rushed him into starting and he got clobbered , never recovered, and had to transfer to Pittsburgh

    His lack of recovery wasn't very apparent this pre season unless that is what caused him to get the ball out ASAP.

    Admittedly, whether or not he can stretch the field remains to be seen. He can hit the short stuff with precision though and on a WCO that is important.

     

    Off topic joke :

     

    Every day a guy goes into a bar and orders up three shots in a row and downs them all.

    After weeks of this the bartender asks : What's with the three shots thing?

    The guy says two are for my two brothers, who are fighting overseas.

    Then the guy comes in and orders two shots.

    With a sinking feeling, the bartender asks if his brothers are OK

    Sure, the guy replies. But I quit drinking.

    Consider your joke stolen😂

     

    A burger walks into a bar and says , " Bartender, give me a beer."

    The bartender replies, " Sorry, we don't serve food here."

  3. Dont you think that has to do more with personnel then him?

    There were a couple he missed , I called it during the game( Atlanta) that he just has to hit. Maybe that is what I'm confusing on the Clay passes. There was no safety within ten yards, CB was on the outside and he dropped the ball on the outside when the inside was wide open and there for the taking.

    The kind of pass we see Brady shred us on repeatedly.

  4. " Watching can teach you a lesson. Doing can teach you many lessons."

    " It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it, otherwise it is a lesson."

    Peterman doesn't look like the type to be ruined. He gets the ball out QUICK.

    It is exasperating to watch TT do the same stupid crap, over and over. How much film does he have to study about his own offense to understand the timing and concepts of Dennisons routs?

  5.  

    300 yards, eh?

     

    Reality check : In preseason, against vanilla defenses, playing almost exclusively against 2s-4s, Peterman :

     

    • Completed 54.4% of his passes
    • Averaged 5.7 yards per attempt
    • Had a longest completion of only 28 yards.
    Look, Taylor had a brutal game and the Bills lost. Obviously this board is full of people who'll give no sympathy whatsoever for the ugly situation Taylor finds himself in. After all, they trashed him after games where he played very well. But fantasy is fantasy, and that's what all of NP's dream 300 yard games is. He showed nothing in camp or preseason to play him over Taylor - which I'm sure the Bills' locker room is well aware of. But - hey - look on the bright side : With this o-line Taylor probably won't last the season anyway......
    How long before the Defensive squad starts to grumble after putting together a performance like that and losing?
  6. those are a gross misrepresentation of how he played yesterday. Better but not accurate.

    Shula is transitioning away from the longer passing game that causes Cam to hold the ball. He is starting to hit the dump off which decreases his yards per average but increases his completion percentage.

    So, yes, it is a good representation of Cam as a QB.

    This is what QB growth and evolution looks like.

  7. it is just one game and he fell off a cliff later in the game.

    Rivera reverted to Rivera Ball. Kinda like McD last week.

    As a " Professional Tyrod Hater" I spot a " Professional Cam Hater" from a mile away.

    Repeat after me, " The Bills would be a playoff team with Cam on our squad!".

  8. May have a strong arm, but his passes are Chad Pennington speed getting out there. I have rarely seen him do a lightning strike pass. They all seem to float.

    My sentiments exactly.

    His long ball, which is supposed to be his strength, doesn't nose over but often falls down. Sometimes this is an appropriate throw but not when you are trying to hit a guy down field in a particular spot..

    Culpepper looked good because of Moss. Delhome because of Smith and Watkins made TT's long ball look like a strength. He throws it to a general area and expects the receiver to bail him out. Again, that is SOMETIMES an appropriate throw. But not always.

  9. Losing allowed the PATS and gag :sick: JETS to tie the Bills in the Division

    Being tied with the Nyets should be the kind of smoke that makes people think " Fire".

    But not here on TBD.

    Here it comes: "The Pats are there also but they are Super Bowl winners. Do you think they are giving up?"

    This is not a playoff team as currently constructed ( I'm entering my own personal Ground Hog's Day Hell) but it is an 8-8ish team which is MUCH worse than a 4-12 or 5-11 team that starts Peterman and moves on from what we will eventually call the Tyrod experiment years.

    I might have to start a LAMP thread!!!!!

  10. Might be a sorry looking group, but if Peterson can anticipate plays better it may help these guys out. Watching Tyrod, it makes me think he doesnt even know the routes these guys are running sometimes. Like hes just waiting for someone to break free and be completely open.

    Ya think( sarcasm)

    TT lovers and Playoff jonesers will continue to swear he is the only play. Beat them over the head, show them the evidence, lose games to one win teams.... doesn't matter.

    " look at the stats" they say. " No receivers " they say.

    The OP is correct in his assessment of our playoff chances. TT is playing .500 football which doesn't get us a good draft pick or a playoff spot.

  11. Please correct me if Im wrong but what we don't understand in my opinion is how you will stop it from happening. It sounds to me that there will be a bunch more areas to look in with clubs and that will create way to much to look at. When you see a certain club based thread it will be really easy to look away and that alone will create people thinking this board is way to complicated because of so many clubs or don't want to go to that club to get harassed because their opinion isn't the same as theirs. I might not agree with some poster's but I want to continue to read what they have to say sadly it will have me not posting as much thats for sure. I guess I just don't understand how creating clubs will make the board less cluttered.

    I use mine all the time as well

    Main problem I have is the reply function, which works half the time on my iPhone 6. I now use the edit function to post replies , otherwise, half of them end up three posts below my original quote.

    Also, it's tough/ time consuming to scroll through all the subjects in the Stadium wall and ( I'm lazy, I admit) but the " search" function requires me to hit the icon in the corner, pick forum and type in search words. Auto correct comes into play and it's just a pain in the arse.

    If there was a TT group that showed all sub groups of TT threads it would ease finding my particular subject.

  12. ...why are "W's" such a negative with TT at the helm, whether he puts up pedestrian numbers or not?......OBD STILL selects a QB in round 1 of 2018 regardless....guess after a 17 year fuggin' drought, we can get picky and pissy about WHO gets the "W".....been following this club since 1962 and I think 2017 is the "year of the fickle".....now we want to get selective as to WHO leads us to the hopeful playoffs in 2017?......if TT can , we want to decline a berth?.....got it..............

    Personally enjoyed the HECK out of last weeks game. Yelled at the TV with GLEE for the first time in a LONG time watching this team.

    We got two calls we just don't get from the refs. TT threw some nice balls including the crossing route TD.

    But, to kill a dead horse, it was a game where just about every bounce went our way.

    TT looked like TT. It wont be enough at some point.

  13. On the other hand, we could put in one place all the people that can't spell "clique," and never have to see that again.

    Yes.... but can those who spell it correctly, pronounce it correctly also.....?

    The Wiz, I like the sub group idea a lot and you raise a great point of duplicate conversations, aside from possibly isolating people. To add to what The Wiz mentioned, what if instead of grouping people, we grouped topics in a hierarchy. Example, there is a Bills Offense discussion, with a main thread, but then you would have sub threads below that hiearchy, where people could start individual discussions that are more targeted towards a specific nuance of the offense.

     

    Maybe have tags associated with the threads so it would all post to the main thread, but you could follow the specific conversation much more easily if you are interested in a specific aspect of the offense in the sub thread associated with that tag. Would be especially helpful since there are often several sub conversations going on in each large thread at any one time.

    This!!!

    A lot of us do this on phones and I think a lot of the " Use search function" or " isn't there already a thread about this" stuff might be ameliorated by this.

    I think many duplicate threads aren't LAMP threads but just because it's hard to navigate on a smaller device.
