If both Peterman and Taylor are cleared to play Sunday

I take the weather into account.  But I am more talking about like this game locked him in as a Starter it doesn't.  If Tyrod (and I despise TT playing and vowed not to watch another game with him starting) is healthy he starts

right. I don't think it did anything that should sway the coaches in one way or the other. if they viewed tyrod as the starter beforehand they still should now.

 

I personally don't care who starts as long as they can stumble into wins becuz neither will be the future for the team going into next year anyway..... this whole "start Peterman for the future" movement is comical to me. I pray, even if he plays on par with tyrod, that they don't view him as the future.

 

I think mostly that's just people that hate taylor so bad they wanna find more excuses to see Peterman.

If McD stays true to his word, it's Tyrod. Peterman didn't do enough to take the job back if both are healthy.

 

Peterman def. did.  He had 50 some passing yards in a blizzard.  TT had 65 against the Saints on a perfect weather day.  TT is DONE.

Peterman throws the ball much better than TT.  He can move it downfield, and hit WR's.  Something TT cannot do.  That backups the D and opens up Shady.

Peterman threw 5 picks in LA, and now has a concussion and will likely miss practices all week.  

 

the title of the thread is "if both are health," so the concussion argument is out.  Yes, he threw 5 picks against a top 3 defense on the road.  Big Ben threw 5 picks in a game this year.  Not saying that Peterman is Big Ben, but the argument that 5 picks is inconsistent with being able to play QB well is incorrect.

right. this is what I heard before the chargers game.... sorry if a snow game in which he hit a couple of jump balls to Benjamin doesn't help sway me.

5 picks in 49 attempts.  He can't handle a blitz, and makes mistakes.  Hes struggled when you take away his first read, and he's also been baited into picks.  

 

I don't think we can afford to have a game just get completely away from us because of turnovers.

Against the worst pass defense in the NFL starting 3 rookies at CBs because theyr starters are on IR

You realize it is MUCH HARDER to throw the ball in a blizzard when it is wet and cold, than it is against the Saints?  You realize the throws to Benjamin were not "jump balls" but perfectly placed passes that good QB's throw so that the WR can make a play on the ball.

I know this is gonna sound like I am waffling......but to me it looks like Peterman is getting better by the game.

 

Yes....the 5 pick game was horrible.....in his next start he threw no interceptions and frankly some pretty good passes.....he used his feet to keep drives moving.....his receivers dropped balls that hit them right in the hands......

 

Did he make a mistake not protecting himself when he got the concussion.....absolutely....a rookie mistake that he will learn from but he DOES appear to be getting better every time he steps on the field.

You didn't even watch the game, if you think stats tell the story think again.

Why do we make this baseless attempt at insult? MAJbobby obviously watched the game. This is the biggest collection of Bills nerds assembled in one place, 99% of us watch every game closely. The 1% being PatsFanNH, that troll Jets meathead account, and SaviorPete.

He can't handle a blitz?  It was a blitz with Bosa and Ingram.  TT would have been sacked about 12 times.   We lose the game anyway.  And Peterman can handle the blitz, that's how he got a concussion: escaping the pocket.  And "hes struggled when you take away his first read" is correct---if your describing TT.

he did a couple nice things yesterday. but what on earth has he done to show he wont start tossing picks again once the weather is nice and he has a green light? 

 

dude. I don't care who starts. I don't want either qb'ing the bills next year. but how on earth could anyone think that he's earned it after 5 picks in one freaking half and then couple of nicely thrown balls to our towering wr in man coverage yesterday? give me a freaking break.

Have to be fair didn't allow the drop excuse wont for Peterman, accurate throws maybe would have been nice maybe then they would not have gone incomplete

Healthy on Sunday, is different than healthy enough to be allowed to watch film and practice. They are different conversations.

 

If Peterman is healthy enough to go through team meetings and full practice, it is a toss up. If not, TT regardless of Sunday health, with Peterman dressed.

I just have this thing about TE's dropping balls.

 

To me this should not happen (or rarely happen) Clay was dropping balls that were not perfect but hitting him in both hands.....a TE should come down with that because they are the safety valves of the offense....the guy you should be able to go to for a catch when you have to have it in traffic or not thrown perfectly.

I'm hardly in the Peterman camp, but I thought he handled the situation well yesterday. No criticisms here.

that's nitpicking IMO

 

My point was, he made a very poor (macho/emotional) decision for basically zero gain.  To win in the NFL, you can't have a qb who doesn't understand their own limitations.  Which is.. you can't (and shouldn't) take on 3 defenders head first for a potential 1-yard gain.  IMO Peterman hasn't shown that he can make a distinction between a turn-over vs. punting when in the heat of the moment.

The question is: who is better.  The answer is Peterman.  TT cannot perform basic functions of a QB.  When the other team "makes him play QB" he can't move the ball.  I'll take my chance with a guy who can hit WR's (even Webb is better than TT in this regard) and move it downfield.  

 

No need to get "Stank_Nasty": hopefully TT is gone after this year and Peterman is backing up a new QB.

yesterday? in that weather? yes. I think tyrod should be starting if healthy. but Peterman did fine yesterday. to not take that storm into account is just absurd. that was unlike anything I've ever seen. 

 

You know the perfect example to show how bad the weather was?  Kelvin Benjamin lined up a full yard offsides and it wasn’t called because the side ref couldn’t see the ball or LOS.  He was standing about 10 yards away.

In this weather where tracking the ball is very difficult any adjustment on a poorly thrown ball is difficult by anyone

What I think of when people say "Peterman should've protected himself by sliding feet first."
