Doc Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 He was looking all over the field last night. No locking on at all. If true, great. I'm recording the replay at 10 AM but won't be able to watch until tomorrow. I'll do that with my oldest, who is getting a man-crush on Nate (he previously and probably still has one on Chad Kelly, but I'm trying to wean him off of that).

26CornerBlitz Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 There is no way to know this. Injury, a poor first month by TT, and getting knocked out of the playoffs are all scenarios where he could play a lot. Anything could happen, but this is the QB plan according to Beane: “He's our starter. Make no bones about it... he's gonna lead us out there and that's really all we're focused on. Nathan's a rookie. This takes time, that's a big jump. He's making his progressions, we think he's done a nice job. Tyrod has played in this league. He's started a lot of games. He deserves this opportunity, and that's really all we're focused on is him being our starter this year.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 There is one thing about Peterman in the preseason games that reminds me SO MUCH of Trent Edwards. Where are the throws downfield? I don't mean 40 yard fly patterns, but how about crossing patterns or slants where the ball travels 15-20 yards past the line of Scrimmage? It is like watching Trent Edwards all over. Not at all, this is an amateur take of Peterman. Trent checked down on throws, the throws that Peterman are making are not checkdowns, rather they are routes that are designed by the offense and he's been making decisive throws that correspond with the intended routes.

billsfan_34 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 No chance, the Bills aren't getting all of this draft capital to build around a guy that they passed on like 5 times in the draft. That should tell you how confident they are in him becoming the guy. That could of been said for Tom Brady as well- sometimes the "resident experts" are wrong. It would be nice if that is the case with Peterman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying that things could happen to change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Cubed Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) Not at all, this is an amateur take of Peterman. Trent checked down on throws, the throws that Peterman are making are not checkdowns, rather they are routes that are designed by the offense and he's been making decisive throws that correspond with the intended routes. It's not an amateur take at all. They may end up being nothing alike but Trent Edwards came out of Stanford and was "known" for his quick release and decision making. His early success with the Bills was on a lot of short/quick routes, being quick to decide where to go with the ball and his quick release. He wasn't checking down in the beginning of his career. That sounds a lot like Peterman. And if you don't believe me go back and read what people had to say about Trent, there is plenty on this site and if you search via google. Or watch the games. He became Captain Checkdown after teams took away the short stuff and made him look for longer routes. He would get rattled and check down.

HappyDays Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 So the comparison to Trent Edwards is they both looked good in preseason and had similar traits? Problem with Edwards wasn't where he started but where he ended. So that's not a bad comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Cubed Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Have a feeling that Peterman is better than Edwards. Problem is, you won't know until a defense challenges him and takes away the short/quick throws. The 2 times I saw it happen, both against the Ravens, he almost threw an interception and he almost fumbled scrambling. Need to see more of what he's capable of doing in those situations.

The almost INT was a dumb decision to throw it trying to avoid a sack. He'll learn from that. As for the fumble, he'll also learn from that. But IIRC, they were jailbreak plays.

blacklabel Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Definitely liked what I saw from Peterman last night, but again, it's a lot of 2nd/3rd string guys out there. But I like how quickly he gets rid of it. He's decisive and accurate for the most part. There were some downfield throws as well and overall he looked sharp. Sometimes I feel like he's a better fit for Dennison's offense than Taylor. I think Peterman has the potential to be a consistent, not overly flashy player while Tyrod can be inconsistent but can also flash with the big plays and has a knack for keeping plays alive.

BuffaloBaumer Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 The way I see this season is Tyrod starting off 1-5 and the Nate comes in to finish off a 3-13 season. That gives the organization a good chunk to see if Petermen has a chance at being a starter in this league, looks like a decent back-up or just does not have it at all against legit defenses. I believe that Petermen will start most of next year as the first rounder qb comes into his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the way I see it for some reason. I can't see Tyrod having a good record after the 1st 6 games and and he may even be pulled (or injured) sooner. Ideally, I want Petermen starting week 1 with Tyrod going to Denver or Jax for a 2nd rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
