Wrong.

 

Peterman was the starter that game and the Bills were winning when he got injured. Webb nearly blew the game by not scoring the rest of the game until OT and throwing an INT that set the Colts up for a chance to win. 

Expand  

It sounds like you are blaming the near loss on our Special Teams specialist/back up WR? Shouldn't we blame Peterman for having the bright idea to dive headfirst into the defense with no back up QB on the roster?

I'm just saying that it was Nathan Peterman's win against the Colts. He was the starter and they were winning when he went out. That guy is trying to act like Joe Webb won it more than Peterman did.

Peterman wasn't ready and was pathetic.......  Maybe one day he'll be ready, like Fales was vs. the Bills......

 

You guys are pathetic in your defense of the decision and his play......

 

Please point out the 2 good passes he threw and that 3 of the Ints weren't his fault.  I need that one again.

 

And Teef I'm not arguing, you don't listen to Simmons and I simply pointed out the conversation.  Isn't this thread about the two old coots on PTI making fun of Peterman and they know nothing either?

You said you were going away...can it happen now?

Yes this is true, the starter gets credit for the win even though NP didn't finish the game.

 

And I don't believe it would have come down to Joe Webbs play/overtime anyway had NP not left the game in the 3rd quarter.

 

Bottom line is that NP still showed a lot of promise this year despite the Chargers debacle.

i hear ya.  i don't think anything isn't saying it was a mistake.  it was.  i just don't know why you're deciding to latch onto it.  it was a poor choice, mcd  went back to tyrod, and the bills made the playoffs.  listen, we know you don't like this staff mostly because of the watkins trade, but not you're just hanging on one decision to define their first year hear.  i don't know why.

Again I've been a fan since 1972 and yes I did not like that they went into tank mode with the trades in the preseason.  I have been honest and forthright about it.  Never had I started a season under the premise that they aren't playing for season, but draft picks and 2-3 seasons down the road.  

 

That is what this staff preached and their actions showed prior to week 1.

 

I can't stand how they run the offence and that Shady is seemingly stuffed every first down rush as the opponents stack the line and know the call.

 

Turtling in the second half and the Prevent Offense kills me.

 

A lot that has turned me off this year, but I have watched and cheered every game.

You’re missing your own point here. I understand you’re saying bad things can happen and great qbs can have bad games as well.

 

But when Ben has a bad game does anyone question whether he was ready to play?

 

Does anyone question the coach for starting him?

 

Does anyone question whether he will start the next week or the remainder of the year?

 

With all due respect, your analogy with Ben was not a good one at all.

 

You are comparing apples and oranges here .

 

Every single great QB has had terrible games. I don’t think anyone is arguing that if that’s your main point .

 

Theres a massive difference when a 5th round rookie gets thrown into a game in which he clearly wasn’t ready for vs. A future hall of famer who just had a bad game 

Expand  

 

Was Roethlisberger ready for the Jaguars game? He threw 5 INTs too. 

 

I agree with you -- It's highly unlikely, considering his resume. Dude probably just had a really bad day at the office. Worst game of the 2017 NFL season by a QB.

 

Was Peterman ready? Considering he demonstrated reasonable rookie proficiency and competence at the position in his limited mop-up duty, I don't see any evidence that anyone can say with absolute certainty that the kid was going to be a disaster. Had he gone into the Saints game and looked like Matt Leinart in the preseason a few years ago, then you'd definitely have a case. But he didn't. He actually looked pretty good in garbage time. Put up better numbers in 5 minutes than Taylor did over the course of the previous 55 minutes. Of course, it was against a Saints defense that had mailed it in, but at that point of the season, Taylor had put the Bills into desperation mode at the position. So it was better than nothing. Taylor literally gave them no other choice but to start someone else at QB.

Your argument concerning Peterman's "readiness" is further weakened by the kid's performance against the Colts. There was a situation where a rookie QB could absolutely be expected to fall apart -- playing a game in never-before-seen, historically bad weather conditions, further compounded by his previous start against the Chargers, and he went in there and looked every bit the part of an NFL QB, especially on the TD throw to Benjamin. 

 

So to claim that McDermott is an unbelievable idiot because it was clearly obvious to everyone in the world that Peterman was going to throw 5 INTs against the Chargers is simply not true. 

 

And it's even dumber to use that as some kind of support for keeping Taylor as the starter, since he was primarily responsible for putting the team in such a dire situation on offense.

No they don't throw the ball.....  No idea if they are a threat or not with lousy OC, Playcalling and formations that every team sees and know.

You mean when the foot was 100% off the gas and primarily backup only......  

 

Yes the INT Tyrod threw that bounced off Clay's hands?

We have 476 pass attempts and 487 rushing attempts.  That is almost completely balanced.

Nope. This is the bottom line :

Actually that is 31st in passing attempts and 6th in rushing attempts......  That pretty much tells you that other teams are prepped for rushes.....

 

Balanced in the NFL is closer to 55%......  Anomalies would be a team like Jacksonville, which had 6-7 blowouts......

No it was the expected disaster and result 95% of professionals and those not with skin in the game (i.e. fans) predicted would happen.  A complete disaster/meltdown/5 Ints maybe not, but the best case scenario would have been a bad game, which is what one expectrs from a 5th round rookie in his first start.....

1. Not true. Revisionist history is a fool's game.

 

2. All the more reason why their opinions mean nothing, especially after the fact. On this one, I'll side with the guys who had something to lose. 

 

3. After multiple very poor performances, Taylor set the bar so low with 56 yards against New Orleans that taking this risk was a preferable option. 

 

What else?

but the bills didn't go into tank more with the trades in the preseason.  they got rid of guys while getting valuable picks.  apparently they felt they didn't need the bloated contracts and ****ty attitudes to win, and they were right.  

 

as other have mentioned, the bills offense is seriously limited by the qb.  i say this as someone who likes tt.  like him or not, i can admit he just doesn't throw the ball well on a consistent basis.  i don't mind tt on this team, but he certainly isn't a guy you build around.  if they draft a qb high, and keep tt on for a year or two while the next guy learns, i'm more than ok with that.
