Fan in Chicago Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Hope is a waking dream : Aristotle Not to be a sourpuss, but there are three problems with Petermania : Besides the fact that your points are all, well, on point, you should get props for excellent use of the English language.

Wayne Arnold Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) This thread only exists because Tyrod is an African-American quarterback. You should all be ashamed. Edited October 15, 2017 by Wayne Arnold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) So, I was watching Petermans YouTube highlights from the preseason. There are throws he makes into tight coverage that I wouldnt expect Tyrod to make. Specifically talking about the first 2 throws in the highlight video from the Eagles game. In rhythm and on time.

Bangarang Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 TYGOD is playing out the year unless injuries pop up Why do you always refer to him as Tygod? Is it just for attention or to annoy people? You do know how horrible of a nickname that is right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 What people dont want to mention is Tyrods actual improvement in this area....he has been throwing the ball away when nothing is there much more this season....but some people sadly cant remember past the last game He's throwing the ball away when he's incapable of finding an open man - not when nothing is there. Week after week (for 2.25 seasons) the all 22 shows that there WAS something there. "Protecting the Ball," to the team's detriment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianFan Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Actually, Peterman is BETTER option for this offense. Peterman is the Quicker thrower. Peterman makes faster reads and faster decisions. Peterman can run just as well as Tyrod does, Argument for Tyrod is that he is ball safe. I'd argue Peterman is even better in this respect. Over their collegiate careers, Peterman had better TD-INT ratio than Tyrod: 47-17 vs 44-20. Peterman >>> Tyrod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Process Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) OUTSIDE THE BOX: I know this approach has hardly ever been used, but why not play both depending on the opponent? Each QB has skills that are better suited to attack different teams. Why not put both in at once? Not regularly, but sporadically. Why doesn't Tyrod ever go out as a receiver? Brady did it and he can't run! Edited October 15, 2017 by The Process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterman did not look like your typical deer in the headlights rookie during the preseason. (not at all) I was very impressed despite what the stat sheet says. Kid was composed, accurate and decisive IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made some nice quick throws yes. He also made a bunch of terrible throws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Hope is a waking dream : Aristotle Not to be a sourpuss, but there are three problems with Petermania : (1) Never has so many back-up dreams been based on so little. Usually the backup makes a splash in preseason with big-time plays and gaudy numbers - by (yes) facing third-stringers, future Sears salesmen, and vanilla defenses. But Peterman completed just 54% of his passes for 5.4 yards per attempt. His longest throw was only 28 yards. Petermanics thrill to the memory of a ten yard slant (it was soooooo perfect), forgetting the wildly inaccurate throws it was sandwiched between. Taylor's bad outtings playing meaningful games against some of the league's most brutal defenses are barely worse than Peterman's entire preseason record. (2) Right now the Bills have no running attack, an offensive line which frequently implodes, a (temporary, we hope) head case for one receiver, several punt returners for other receivers, and the very definition of a journeyman pulled off the scrap heap topping the group off. Prior to Cincinnati, Taylor was in the top-quarter of the NFL making plus-twenty yard pass plays with pretty much a tight end and running back alone. Then, of course, he lost the tight end. Instead of dreamily believing Nathan can make more of this dung hill, why not ask how Taylor 's been able to accomplish what he has? Setting aside raw attempts, who has made more with less? And here's a question : How exactly is poor NP going to stretch the field? If you found the 4.7 ypa Bengal's game ugly, what do you expect Peterman to produce? Ya ain't seen nutt'n yet, dink and dunk-wise. (3) Taylor and Peterman were both late-round picks for a reason. In both cases there were / are problems with their game. Believe it or not, Taylor is at least an average quarterback today. Given decent NFL-grade talent to play with, he's looked pretty solid. But that has been an accomplishment of years of hard work on both his strengths and weaknesses. If Flacco had gone down Taylor's rookie year, I'd bet anything TT would have flamed-out years ago. Peterman has a chance to beat the odds too, but I don't think it will come from being dumped into the Bills' cesspool offense. The Petermanics' dreamy best wishes may kill their man with kindness..... ./thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) It's nothing more than preseason hero worship this time in the form of Petermania. Nonetheless, he's still on the bench where he belongs. Relying on preseason stats - good or bad - to assess a player is silly. You look for things like footwork, decisiveness, accuracy, leadership, etc. In preseason, the stats could be good or bad based on many factors. When I watched Peterman, he looked better than Tyrod at all of the things at which Tyrod stinks. Obviously, Tyrod is more mobile/dangerous with his feet. But that's not what we need. Obviously.
