I think Tyrod was healthy enough to play yesterday so I think he will for sure be ready this week. Tyrod could have played yesterday. His scans showed no ligament damage, he said he was fine and practiced friday. He could have been sidelined as the emergency QB3 if needed but McD decided to de-activate him all together.

LABILLBACKER Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 35 minutes ago, John from Hemet said: 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. He will get a little better with each game. The challenge for this organization will be improving the O-line enough to protect both Peterman and whoever we draft this april.

Gugny Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 If they're both healthy and Taylor starts, it's bull ****. He was inactive because he didn't WANT to play yesterday; not because he couldn't. Now that the Bills are in "okay" shape to make the postseason, if he suddenly "feels better," I think it's bull ****. I cannot stand this guy. He's EXACTLY like Flutie and I can't wait until he's gone. What a piece of garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProcessTheTrust Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 My point about Peterman not doing enough to win the job back is you can't really evaluate QB play in that wacky game. I believe if it wasn't a snow globe game, he would have won it back easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting things going down. Medically, I'm sure he could have played, but I'm also sure his knee was still sore. I can imagine that even though physically able, Tyrod may not have felt as free to take off and run with the ball as he normally is. Tyrod depends on his athleticism and mobility as part of his skill set to be effective. It might be the most important thing he has going for him. If his knee is sore and he doesn't feel as comfortable running or rolling out, then he's going to be even less effective, which would have been deadly in the snow yesterday. He also would have been vulnerable for more hits, which could have aggravated the original injury or caused a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPP Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Taylor didnt play because the coaches thought the severe weather would reaggrivate his knee issue so they deactivated him....was going to be a full out running game anyways......thats what taylor himself told me anyways while i was shovelling the snow outside the tunnel.....he really really did!

Players in the NFL play with bruised everything every week though. There is no reason to 100% de-activate him for a bruised knee he could have played on. He should have at least of suited up as an emergency QB3. Did we even have a QB3 yesterday? What if Webb went down? Something just seems off to me is all with the decision.

billsfan60 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I saw Nate throw passes yesterday that taylor can't or won't make. Hell Webb looked better than taylor has this year. If Nate can't go maybe Joe should get the call. Had enough of "two yard". You can say all you want about poor OL play or leaky defenses, but the change at QB from vet to rook made this look like a real NFL team. God forbid the phins get up by 3 next Sunday, with taylor we never catch up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 1 hour ago, RyanC883 said: 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. If he's so good why has he never had like a single good game? In preseason or regular season. 7 minutes ago, billsfan60 said: I saw Nate throw passes yesterday that taylor can't or won't make. Hell Webb looked better than taylor has this year.

Either way, Peterman has made a couple of plays in his time with Buffalo. He also lost his mind and became a turnover machine. I don't want a turnover machine playing QB. He was given a shot, and played his way out of the lineup. He'll likely get another one this year or next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
