It is all hyperbole based on no real information right now. Calm down.

Ligaments are relatively avascular cinnective tissue. They can repair on their own but it takes a long time.

His career: 58% completion rate, 10TD/11Int, rating around 78. About what I'd expect of a backup guy. Some good, some bad. Seems like a pretty good second guy to have. And not utterly false, just at odds with your opinion that you apparently confuse with fact. Allen has played 5 games with a weaker supporting cast. We'll see how he does.

What the hell are you talking about? I said they should have gotten a veteran guy and they took McCarron. I also said that the other FAs that were in their price range were all the same guy, and that they should have gotten one when they decided to trade McCarron. And I said Bridgewater's knee scared tgem off as well as many other teams. ignore? You don't actually read what is posted. Good point.

It is inaccurate

Beathard and Osweiler each played OK this week. And odds are big they will have poor games coming up. But because of one game their history is ignored and some here complain we don't have either of them.

I will go back to what I said before. Knowing they were drafting a guy round 1 (and knowing they were going to clear cap space) they were not in the market to go after a Keenum or Bradford. So they looked at lower tier FAs and McCarron made sense. Then Peterman played great in preseason and McCarron didn't. Their mistake was not bringing in a guy as soon as McCarron went. But from what Tasker said they were trying. And of course Peterman throws up on himself. I agree about Jones. But they did bring him in for a look and we don't know how that went.

Yes. From what Tasker said today they were trying to get Anderson for quite a while, right?

True. In March. When everyone had concerns if he could play at all.

I'm quite sure his knee had teams scared to death. He's lucky he still has that leg.

I think there is justifiable criticism that they didn't have a vet like Anderson in when McCarron got traded, although someoneposted today they were trying to get Anderson in since the summer. That said, if they brought Anderson in 6 weeks ago, would that have meant theBills were brilliant? Would it have negated "lunacy"? Of course not.

And back to my statements above on Peterman. The guy earned a spot in his preseasons then throws up on himself in regular season games. I think Anderson starts Sunday. A vet with our D should be able to win that one.

And thus my statements above. They can be rightfully criticized for not bringing in a vet like these guys when they traded McCarron but none of these guys really stands out over the other.

Not a FA. Would have been an in division trade, and would the Jets have done that?

You say the FA QBs weren't the same. Fine. Who would you have signed, knowing you weren't in the market for the high priced guys since you were drafting a guy? Yiu made the claim they weren't all the same. Back it up. Guess so.

Yeah but he consistently did well in preseason and earned a spot. Then he just does what he does in games. Just a mystery to me.

But Peterman was clearly better than McCarron in preseason. The mystery is why Peterman throws up on himself

Ok. They weren't going to spend a fortune in a guy knowing they were drafting a guy. So then you look at veterans like Anderson, McCarron, etc., etc. and I'm not defending it; I said above they should have brought another vet in earlier when they traded McCarron. So two questions for you: 1. Who was the standout(s) making them not all the same? 2. Have you learned to read?

Who would you have brought in? Bradford? Hah! The FA available QBs were all about the same. And knowing they were going to draft a young guy no way they were going to spend huge dollars on someone like a Keenum.

Trading McCarron not a big deal to me. I thought he'd be the guy but showed nothing in preseason. But you can rightfully criticize for not getting the veteran backup in earlier.

OP: Do yourself a couple favors: 1. Look up who the playoff teams were last year 2. Suspend your Internet account so you can't post anymore

For sure one daughter and one niece

It doesn't right now. Consider the source.

I'll be there Sunday with wife, two daughters, two sisters in law and one of them brining my three nieces with her from Buffalo. And if I see Peterman run out on the field I'll lead the catcalls. I cannot imagine how Anderson does not start the game.

I hope you use better statistical analysis than used here.
