BillsFan130 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Mccaron is not starting. There is a reason why he played the full 4th pre season game. It is clearly between Allen and Peterman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 1 hour ago, Sky Diver said: Allen clearly isn’t ready so that leaves McCarron and Peterman. If you follow the true process, both will play against Baltimore and we’ll see who wins the team. The competition doesn’t have to end in preseason. I’ll mark you down as wanting one or two more preseason games to evaluate. Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalobloodfloridahome Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 If it was a true competition Peterman has played the best and most consistent of the three. He may just have a short leash with the Rook breathing down his neck. Aj should be third only because our oline is so bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you hadn't noticed, it's not a theee man battle. It's between Peterman and Allen. McCarron is not in this race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky Diver Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 1 hour ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Yes. Yes, in any kind of sane football world the competition does in fact have to end with preseason. If that's McDermott's "true process", it's a Bad Process. If you have a guy that looks like Tarzan in the preseason, but plays like Jane in the regular season, you keep playing him? How does that make any sense? 1 hour ago, Teddy KGB said: This isn’t the Florida gators. Nfl teams don’t do this. You already know this though Maybe they should.

And all three QBs have played with different combinations of offensive and defensive players. The regular season is the real test. Alternate them in the first game and see who comes out on top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenWillBust Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 (edited) Hopefully Allen.

I locked the poll after word of the McCarron trade just so that 45.51% can sit there for a bit. I can always open it up again if people want. Seems like about everyone voted who was going to vote, though. Shady, you're doing just an incredible job ignoring me. As for the giggles at my 5% guess... well... 5% is still a chance. And honestly, I stand by my initial number. He doesn't have a 5% chance anymore, but it was a confluence of events that had to happen for him to have a chance to start, primarily that he had to kill the offseason by being better than the other 2 guys in training camp AND he had to virtually play flawlessly in the preseason AND McCarron had to basically fall on his face given the opportunity AND Allen had to demonstrate he's just not ready. All those things had to happen for Peterman to be named the starter. The McCarron one obviously happened. It doesn't appear the 1st one quite happened. The 2nd one appears on the surface to have happened. The 4th one is still up for debate. Notice that the starter still hasn't been named. I think holding the announcement back still gives Allen a slight edge over Peterman, even now. Shady, you're never going to make a shot if you're always sitting on the sidelines.

transplantbillsfan Posted September 1, 2018 Author Share Posted September 1, 2018 So I'm actually going to reopen the poll now and take McCarron out so people can recast their votes. Just note that on cut day as McCarron is traded, there were 479 votes cast. 149 were for Allen 218 were for McCarron 112 were for Peterman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Peterman. Played better in preseason with the 1st team, 2nd and 3rd teams. You start Peterman and let Allen watch from the sidelines. You also don't get Allen killed by our terrible O-line. If Petterman is good/okay this year, you can trade him for a 2nd or keep him as Allen's backup next year.

For the collective poll from the Summer ending today 479 votes cast. 149 were for Allen 218 were for McCarron 112 were for Peterman 45.51% of the people who voted saw the guy they thought would start week 1 traded away.
