Billsfan1972

No one's blaming Peterman. I just think it was apropos that it was Peterman throwing the interception, taking an intentional grounding penalty and making a terrible throw with 24 seconds left (after the 10 second runoff) to a flat footed receiver who couldn't have got out of bounds.

Well said........ Another very good post.....

The intentional grounding & the pick were correct calls. He is what he is. I will admit my bias....... If this was after the blizzard game and mop ups, I'd think nothing of it. However that 5 Int performance was so bad it will take a long time for the stink to come off.

The Bills Offense is just so bad that the smallest mistakes can not be overcome. I pointed out 5 plays that just killed the offense. Sad that the Bills can't overcome adversity in any way.

No hate, just apropos that the season ended on a Peterman int.....

Difference was with Tyrod out of the pocket he had no place to go. Bottles no where near the runner and couldn't throw a decent pass had tons of running space and both scores were due to his runs. Yes perfectly acceptable to ask.

Let's see had 5 over and two I was texting all agreed

Why? it was a telegraphed pass. Absolutely his fault though a great play. And 3 vs. LAC weren't his fault either.

I can't disagree. I just saw few opportunities and those backbreaking plays.

Thankfully friends over to watch the game as otherwise just a boring football game. Taylor was not great, but not the reason they lost. Jacksonville was all over him and when out of the pocket he had nowhere to run. Jacksonville was lined up across the field. Meanwhile Bortles has wide open spaces to run..... Couldn't figure that out whatsoever. There was no reason Bortles should have run for 88 yards. While reffing was okay, the Bills took 3-4 backbreaking plays/penalties (all non-consequential) costing them 70-80 yards. 4th and 6 at JAX 27 (12:19 - 2nd) B.Nortman punts 52 yards to BUF 21, Center-C.Holba. B.Tate to BUF 39 for 18 yards (C.Grant). PENALTY on BUF-B.Borders, Illegal Block Above the Waist, 10 yards, enforced at BUF 24. 1st and 10 at 50 (10:36 - 3rd) T.Taylor pass incomplete short middle to N.O'Leary (M.Jack). 1st and 10 at BUF 26 (8:28 - 4th) (Shotgun) T.Taylor pass short right to L.McCoy ran ob at JAX 35 for 39 yards (B.Church). PENALTY on BUF-D.Thompson, Offensive Holding, 10 yards, enforced at BUF 42. 2nd and 10 at JAX 48 (6:32 - 4th) (Shotgun) T.Taylor pass short left to C.Clay pushed ob at JAX 37 for 11 yards (T.Gipson). Jacksonville challenged the pass completion ruling, and the play was REVERSED. (Shotgun) T.Taylor pass incomplete short left to C.Clay. Many other things to point out, but these stood out. And so appropriate that the season ended with Peterman throwing an int.......

It was not tongue in cheek? Cousin Sal even mentions the tiebreaker. But McDermott knew they'd win it? Listen I am the one who said -7 would make the playoffs, but not 8-7-1..... I also said back in November they'd probably meet Jax and definitely could win. Boy I'm way off aren't I?

That was tongue in cheek immediately following the game (not this week) and they are laughing...... It is a classic Simmons take....... How about the whole podcast, which I did listen to.....

Bang on.... And I was forever stating 9-7 gets the Bills in the playoffs vs. a very beatable Jacksonville...... BTW 8-7-1 would not have.....

How wrong can one be???? You learn on the sidelines, like many qb's do..... See Brady, Garropolo........ Any success from later round picks came from learning for a minimum of 1 and often 2-3 years...... This was a joke..... Yes Peterman would have earned the Bills the #3 seed, which meant beating the Patriots twice, which actually would have gotten them the #1 seed....... Aim high my friend........ What a joke....... And some thought I was joking that Peterman should start vs. Jacksonville????

How many times??????? Tyrod was not a ROOKIE!!!!!!!!

Not 5 picks in a half, but most predicted it was doomed to failure. The best thing that happened was that it was so disastrous and Tyrod had to be put in at half. McDermott even after ints 3 & 4 sent him back out with the game still in reach...... After #3 it was 17-7, after 4, 24-7, then 2 3 & outs to 34-7 and then #5 made it 37-7....... If just a bad game, Peterman would have continued to start, the Bills would not be in the playoffs and you fan boys would be talking about the Draft Board right now...............

Ah let me think...... Anyone with knowledge of football........ Yes he being a FIFTH ROUND draft pick was an important factor.....

No right thinking coach would start a ROOKIE FIFTH ROUND PICK in a game with serious playoff implications...... That is what he did and it was absolutely wrong and the results speak for themselves..... Of course if you drink the Koolaid you'll tell me it was part of his master plan that makes him so much smarter then everyone else and that it lit a fire under Tyrod..... Oops forgot the defense that was torched for 3 straight weeks and absolutely no repercussions for any defensive players...... How comical some of you are......

HOF or MVP??????

Actually that is 31st in passing attempts and 6th in rushing attempts...... That pretty much tells you that other teams are prepped for rushes..... Balanced in the NFL is closer to 55%...... Anomalies would be a team like Jacksonville, which had 6-7 blowouts...... Keep on posting stoopid comments....

No they don't throw the ball..... No idea if they are a threat or not with lousy OC, Playcalling and formations that every team sees and know. How about you cite something of substance....... Oops asking too much. You mean when the foot was 100% off the gas and primarily backup only...... Yes the INT Tyrod threw that bounced off Clay's hands? Oh oh, here comes the defense of Peterman and the DiMarco int vs. LAC........

Again I've been a fan since 1972 and yes I did not like that they went into tank mode with the trades in the preseason. I have been honest and forthright about it. Never had I started a season under the premise that they aren't playing for season, but draft picks and 2-3 seasons down the road. That is what this staff preached and their actions showed prior to week 1. I can't stand how they run the offence and that Shady is seemingly stuffed every first down rush as the opponents stack the line and know the call. Turtling in the second half and the Prevent Offense kills me. A lot that has turned me off this year, but I have watched and cheered every game.

I think I said after the Bills are eliminated. Again stating facts and you?????? 5 Ints in a half didn't happen????? Please how about some McDermott speak or sideline clapping...... "I made the right decision, just the outcome wasn't what we expected".......

Peterman wasn't ready and was pathetic....... Maybe one day he'll be ready, like Fales was vs. the Bills...... You guys are pathetic in your defense of the decision and his play...... Please point out the 2 good passes he threw and that 3 of the Ints weren't his fault. I need that one again. And Teef I'm not arguing, you don't listen to Simmons and I simply pointed out the conversation. Isn't this thread about the two old coots on PTI making fun of Peterman and they know nothing either?

No it was the expected disaster and result 95% of professionals and those not with skin in the game (i.e. fans) predicted would happen. A complete disaster/meltdown/5 Ints maybe not, but the best case scenario would have been a bad game, which is what one expectrs from a 5th round rookie in his first start.....
