I am uncertain on whether he is better than Nathan Peterman. It's funny how quickly folks back off of 10 to 1 odds when asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I cant knock people for needing to see if AJM is a good player before they think he is.....saying they know that he is not is a little far fetched as well We know that he was very good in college....and has several NFL training camps and pre seasons to work on any issues with his game...I consider that a plus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he was signed, the contract he was given and the stories about the signing sure make it seem AJ was simply the right price, not a guy identified as being the right guy. The thing the AJ and/or Peterman people fail to understand is no one is saying we need to cut McCarron or Peterman the instant we draft a QB. Just that neither have shown anything near enough to eliminate pursing another option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. He looked like a game manager on a team loaded with talent. He certainly was no Namath, Stabler, or even Todd at Alabama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 10 minutes ago, John from Riverside said: To me the price he was signed for screamed "we are taking a QB high" Exactly. The offseason played out such that it seemed we saw there were more QBs who thought they should be a starter than teams offering an actual chance at a starting job. We simply waited until the last guy standing without a chair needed somewhere to sit down and took our offer, well below what other QBs received. That's a far cry from the intent it seems some are assigning to McCarron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 He is a better passer than Tyrod. We will see if that makes the offense better. But it doesn't take much. Being a better passer may not back the LB and CB's off enough to open more running or throwing lanes. We shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD:TO Ratio? TD%? YAC/R? I'm not going to make you put your money where your mouth is, per se. I'm just curious where exactly you think we're going to be improved.

I feel I can say all of the above. seems like a pretty simple answer but I feel he will do better in just about every parameter. maybe TD:TO Ratio he may not do as well as he'll likely throw more then taylor did? one thing he wont be doing is running around like a chicken with it's head cut off after his first read. something I certainly wont miss from taylor.

You certainly can say that, but it doesn't make it correct. We shall see what ultimately happens. As it stands with McC's small sample size, he accounted for fewer yards per game, fewer TDs per game, his TD:TO was less than half of TTs, lower YPA, lower TD%, higher TO%, lower passer rating, and a lower ANY/A. Let's hope he has improved over the past couple years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just curious where exactly you think we're going to be improved. Let me try to help you two... Do bets often have 3 options to bet? He looks like a QB and the Bills win 9 + games. Pick an over 9 He looks like a QB and the Bills win 9 + games. Pick an under 9. He doesn't look like a QB and the Bills win less than 8 games.

Davejr511 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 23 hours ago, CountDorkula said: And none of those starters would matter with Nate Peterman throwing 5 INTS a game. How many times have the Bills tried to Build up the team to support a sub-par QB in the past 18 years? A stout MLB is not putting you in the playoffs, a #1 WR is not doing anything for you if he doesn't have anyone throwing him the Ball. An All-pro Guard is not doing anything if the guy he is protecting is not worth a damn. 5 interceptions, 5 interceptions... The kid had one bad game and you guys talk like everytime he goes out there he's going to throw 5 interceptions. But lets just forget his next outing as a starter he looked good untill he got hurt and it was in a freakin blizzard. Putting Peterman (a rookie) in his first game against a top 5 defense with an Oline that was horrible was all McDermott fault. Im not say to not draft a QB at all, Im says maybe we should relax sit patiently waiting at 12 and take whatever top QB is available then. I really think 1 if not 2 of the top 5 will be available (Mayfield, Allen, Jackson). I wouldnt be against wait till 22 and going after Rudolph. Either way you get your QB plus shill have 5 other picks to address needs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this Nate trash talk doesn't matter. AJ will be the starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
