Official TNF Thread: Bungles vs Ravens
zow2 replied to Jauronimo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Must feel great to have WRs that make contested catches... and some for TDs. -
Official TNF Thread: Bungles vs Ravens
zow2 replied to Jauronimo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Maybe. Can’t remember. But in competitive games, all too often on 3rd and 12+ they throw a simple dump off or run a draw or something. Just chuck it down the field and try to get a call. -
Official TNF Thread: Bungles vs Ravens

The Bills never ever purposely try to get a PI call downfield. So frustrating. Most teams and especially the Pats play that game. It’s a great strategy -
We are getting killed on espn
zow2 replied to Buffalo Barbarian's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
i think a lot of it is because of the Peterman factor. But McD better get his defense in line because it's not supposed to be a complete embarrassment of a season. Pegula didn't sign up for that I can assure you. His other club has already been the joke in NHL circles for several years. -
Prediction: Bills will go no huddle on Sunday
zow2 replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You don't want to see No-huddle much. That will just mean the Bills go 3-and-out in lightning quick speed and Phil Rivers gets many many possessions to put 45+ points on our scoreboard. -
McBeane's way of rebuilding makes no sense
zow2 replied to Jerry Jabber's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I just find it hard to believe Terry and Kim signed off on a total "rip it down to the ground" rebuild plan. By all counts they agreed to do that with the Sabres and it blew up. The rebuild was so much harder than anticipated and the stain on the franchise and upset fanbase has been brutal. They just can't get back to respectability let alone playoffs. Maybe this is the year, who knows. As for the Bills, they had a playoff team...there's no way that Terry said, OK we finally have a team to be proud of, let's allow ourselves to have the least amount of talent in the league, trade the one proven QB, and be the laughingstock of the NFL. No way would he agree to that. Obviously they convinced him Peterman would be a good bridge and that has failed miserably. and McBeane's defense after 1 game looks like a miserable failure. -
Redskins' 50-year sellout streak will end this Sunday
zow2 replied to \GoBillsInDallas/'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
All sports are suffering because kids don't really watch, and they are starting to age into that 17-25 yr old bracket. Heck, my 14 yr old son has grown up with a sports crazy dad. He likes the games but like most of his friends would rather be on the PS4 or watching his online stuff and Youtube videos. He plays fantasy football with me, but on gameday mostly sits on his phone and keeps track of his fantasy players...and glances at the game once in a while. Then by the 3rd Qtr is checked out on the game. Kids just don't sit and watch sports like we used to. -
Reason for some optimism. Receivers open.
zow2 replied to billsintaiwan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Here's my takeaways: - Playing QB in the NFL is really hard. You have to be able to process what the defense is going to do even BEFORE the snap, and then have about 1.5 seconds to process what you need to after the snap.. This is why players like Brady, Brees, Peyton, etc. are few and far between. - Peterman sucks. He does good in non-pressure practice and pre-season situations. But a real game is way over his head. - The receivers I'm sure got frustrated because they knew their QB couldn't see the field. most continued to hustle the entire game regardless. - Benjamin is a lazy, pouty, SOB. Once he realized Peterman was over his head in this game, he gave up.. and gave no effort. -
I don't disagree at all. I also think McD totally botched it...not only by starting him vs LA but leaving him in for 5 Int's. I recall sitting there after the 3rd one yelling at the screen to pull the kid and put TT in. I mean who is stubborn enough to leave a QB in till their 5th Int? That's like a hockey coach pulling the goalie only after he lets in a 10th goal. McD made the kid the butt of national jokes,,, and Peterman himself etched his name in NFL-joke history with his performance in Baltimore. His career is effectively over.

Predict Josh Allen's stats vs LA.
zow2 replied to downunderbill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
13/27 for 121 yards, 1 TD, 1 Int Bills fans will be frustrated b/c the staff won't call many deep passes if at all. It will be a very conservative game plan and we will all be miffed because we want to see Allen unleash some bombs. The Bills will have the ball at their own 45 yd line with 6 seconds to go in the first half and McD will call for a draw hand-off....to protect the kid and not risk an INT on his resume. -
Well, we have an example of a ruined QB on our own team. His name is Peterman. Started too soon, had a couple bad days, now gun shy and can't overcome adversity and the speed of a real game.

Confirmed: Bills to start rookie QB Josh Allen vs. Chargers
zow2 replied to East TX Dan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Peterman seems to be like a great rehearsal actor who forgets his lines once the show starts. Maybe Allen is the opposite... Let's hope when the lights come on for real, this kid is a gamer and lifts the guys around him. We'll see. -
Redskins' 50-year sellout streak will end this Sunday
zow2 replied to \GoBillsInDallas/'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
They haven't sold out for several years. Often the stadium has a huge percentage of opponents fans, especially when Eagles, Giants, Cowboys, Packers, Steelers and a few others are in town. It's only recently that the Skins are lifting the cover on the big myth that every game is a sellout. They've had season ticket availability and individual games for several years. -
I'd like to see Allen NOT roll to his left so much,, he can't square his body to pass on the run from that angle. I guess it might be a product of the right side of the O-line being crap. He may have no choice but to roll left too often.

Confirmed: Bills to start rookie QB Josh Allen vs. Chargers
zow2 replied to East TX Dan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'll be happy if Allen can start AND complete the game....while looking competent. I think in every game I've seen him so far, he's been bounced on his head or taken a hard, unnecessary shot. He needs to protect himself out there. -
Confirmed: Bills to start rookie QB Josh Allen vs. Chargers
zow2 replied to East TX Dan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Maybe the Bills players can watch some tape of the jets game from Monday night. See how every Jets unit played hard and did everything they could to make sure their rookie QB had a chance to succeed. How about the Bills D, Special teams and O-line help the kid out with maximum effort and disciplined play? -
9-12: Sean McDermott & Shady-Allen Pressers Live
zow2 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Good post, agree on all. As for Peterman, he is a good dude and I was hoping he'd turn into our modern day Frank Reich.. A solid, reliable backup. Unfortunately Nate's practice habits and practice games have not carried over to the real thing. He got off to a good start in the Indy snow game last year, but couldn't even finish it out. The two road starts were historically poor. His play has put McDermott's decision making into serious question. So McD has no choice but to start Allen and let's hope for the best. -
UB 35 - E.Michigan 28 Bulls 3-0 for first time in FBS.
zow2 replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in College Football
Can’t wait for this game. Much more enjoyable than the pro team this year. -
The 0-1 Chargers travel across the country to play Bills, LA opened up as a 6pt favorite it’s now up to 8.5. That’s astounding. you know things are bad. Never seen the Bills that big of a home dog. Maybe vs New England a few times. I’d still take the Bills +8.5 in this situation. The D has to play like NFL players this week and the O can’t be as bad with Allen at the helm.

McBeane's way of rebuilding makes no sense
zow2 replied to Jerry Jabber's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As they mentioned on WGR this morning, this might be the first NFL club that both QBs on their roster have never before started and completed an NFL game. Way to go McBeane. Let's go Buffalo! -
One of my bigger beefs with McDermott are shown below. His teams get behind in games and they can't do anything to stop things from snowballing. What happened to this defensive genius? At least we should be able to count on that. I know he doesn't know crap about offense. Forget about the fact that they also only scored 3 vs. Carolina and Jacksonville. Even in the Rex era we didn't suffer this many blowouts.. Jets 34 Bills 21 Saints 47 Bills 10 Chargers 54 Bills 24 Patriots 20 Bills 3 Patriots 37 Bills 16 Ravens 47 Bills 3

McD is acting like a clown Don’t act like getting blown out 3 or 4 times in your short tenure is part of the “process”. Don’t cut good, possession WRs and Tight end when we are desperate for possession receivers? Don’t act like Peterman did some good things in the game. I like Peterman but he did NOTHING good in that game. Don’t try to sell that the QB starter for LA is undecided when everyone in NFL nation outside of Buffalo says Peterman should never ever start another game in NFL history. So Sean is right but every other person in the country is wrong??

Poor Peterman, there’s a page 2 article in The Washington Post today devoted to his futility as a starter. The local morning sports talk show in DC also spent an entire segment (about 12 mins) talking about the Bills decision to play Peterman and what a joke it is. He and he team are national laughingstocks.

2018 Nathan Peterman = 2013 Jeff Tuel
zow2 replied to transplantbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The worst QB I’ve ever seen in the NFL who got multiple starts was John Beck. He even got a start with two teams I think? But just like Beck, Peterman is a practice warrior and plays fine in preseason. Once the lights are on and opposing defense game plans against him it’s all over. He can’t overcome everything getting thrown at him. On the flip side if Peterman ever sees the field again during a garbage time moment I bet he does ok, when there’s no pressure.
