JaCrispy Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Maybe the catalyst for hitting on all cylinders is having Peterman at QB. this is also a good point...sometimes a better QB does cover up weaknesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Boy Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) This. He has good pocket presence. Not a statue and decent footwork. This is a quick hitting passing attack which he seems capable of. I don't think he's the second coming of Kelly but he has legitimate NFL skills. He's capable of functioning in an offense that doesn't have to be tailored to a unique skill set like Taylor. In terms of McD, he has to give TT his shot but I don't think this lasts long.

He sees both of these QBs on a daily basis and I am quite sure he knows what each is capable of. If Peterman is more capable of running this offense at this point than Tyrod is then he should put him in right now. They owe nothing to Taylor other than his pay.

Roundybout Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) Playing Peterman all season yields three distinct results: 1) Peterman pulls a Dak or a Wilson and plays lights out, earning his place as our franchise guy and allowing us to spend our plethora of picks on players that can fill holes, such as offensive linemen that aren't turnstiles, another first round DT to replace Kyle, or even another WR. 2) The Oline remains putrid and Peterman, while showing promise, is sacked to death like David Carr. 3) Peterman shows that he is merely a backup and the Bills roll to a high draft pick. I love Tyrod; I think he can be electric when he can move the way he wants. The problem is that he seems to be hitting his ceiling, and the coaching staff is realizing this. Do we roll with NVP?

If Peterman is more capable of running this offense at this point than Tyrod is then he should put him in right now. They owe nothing to Taylor other than his pay. Peterman still has some stuff to clean up , probably . Seven year of experience does count for something but I agree the rookies skill set will win out.

Do we roll with NVP? ...as another poster pointed out, Spent Trent Edwards was anointed Buffalo's savior which worked out.....you know the rest......OBD has hardly been the "mecca for QB development" since Kelly era......Donohole rushed Losman into staring to justify what he gave up to draft him....Ej was thrown to the wolves after the "Kolb Mat Attack (had no concussed noodle left anyway)".....and we'll nenver know if either would have panned out as some serviceable QB level in the NFL.....Peterman has certainly shown some qualities in two pre-season games...at the same time, pre-season is the customary "vanilla" and hardly equates to "live ammo"......seeing the kid developed for the long haul versus throwing him to the wolves is my choice.....measure TT's performance in 4 game increments.......draft one in 2018 regardless as TT is due a $6 mil roster bonus in March 2018......

HappyDays Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 If at any point in the season McDermott is 100% sure we are drafting a QB high next year then he has to put Peterman in. How Peterman performs determines how much we need to be willing to give up for a QB next year. Until we are 100% sure Tyrod should stay in. Let's get this problem answered once and for all, someone will step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 2018 QB. It's inevitable and the right thing to do. It may not be either if Darnold and Rosen don't declare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 It may not be either if Darnold and Rosen don't declare. Oh they'll declare. How do I know? The organization has a contact who is going to have people visit both QBs, and make them offers they can't refuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Peterman probably is more NFL ready then even most higher round QB's and I don't know if you cand find a better compliment so i'm not hating your argument. He doesn't look to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figster Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) He doesn't look to be. adjusting faster then QB's drafted before him in earlier rounds? I haven't followed this years class of QB's close enough so If you take exception to my post I do value your opinion. Peterman looks real comfortable and not the least bit intimidated though IMO.

26CornerBlitz Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 @Cover_1 Peterman throws it short instead of the possible big play to Thomas. Can't hate on it too much, he was decisive. Missed a wide open Logan Thomas here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
