We will punt on almost every possession and get embarrassed in front of the 238 people in the stands. It’s not to late to grow a pair of stones and name Peterman the starter. Give the fans something to actually look forward to and maybe save the season. Start Peterman or watch 5-2 go to 5-7. Tyrod has been figured out. I share your pain amd agree 100%, but McDermott won't make the switch until it's too late. Right now, Sean's going to be defensive, feeling like the fans and media think they know better than he, the head coach. If McDermott is to bench Taylor, his ego won't allow the decision to be made under pressure from outsiders. It has to be of his own "perceived" volition. So expect it to happen 3 weeks too late, after 5 straight losses and our playoff hopes dashed. Then we'll hear Sean rattle off the standard, "I did what was in the best interest of the team" "Tyrod gave us the best chance to win" b.s. On a side note, who here thinks Belichick WOULDN'T make the switch after Tyrod's last 2 outings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonCents Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 (edited) The Bills started this season hot by creating turnovers. They have since dried up. I'm calling for McBeane to go out and get s turnover chain to save the season, it starts Sunday in LA.

He doesn't have to care what we think. We're right, he (so far) is wrong. He'll reach that conclusion in due time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCBongo Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Lets be real, Belichick would not have benched Bledsoe for Brady if Bledsoe was healthy. By the time Bledsoe was Brady was showing his skill and Belickick has no choice. I do not blame McD for sticking with Tyrod. It is what coaches do and do anything less would hurt his credibility with the team. But to be stubborn about it would be wrong too. I would think he keeps Tyrod on a short leash Sunday. If the Bills cannot get the offense moving after at least the 1st quarter, I would expect him to insert Peterman for a series or two. If he does well, you keep him going. If he gets the game result, you pull him out and put Tyrod back in. Peterman gets valuable experience without throwing him to the wolves; and Tyrod gets some time on the bench to hopefully smolder. I said this in another post, if the Bills lose and go to 5-5 any dreams of the playoffs are going to be figuratively lost. They traded for Benjamin, they gave the signal they want to win now. McD shuffles in players all game without regard to "starters"; why shouldn't he hold the same philosophy for the QB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at their record, and without Rivers, we're lucky to be in this position to win this game. Yet, it won't be an easy game. The rest of the team is legit. And they were rounding into form. They played Jags tough man. They almost won if not for that stupid pick by Rivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. Only two reasons why we might have a chance - the drubbing we took last sunday SHOULD bring out the best in players and coaches, and Rivers not playing. Clemons is a dinker and we'll take that all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I've ever seen such a horrid 2 game stretch in run defense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
