BurpleBull Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Nathan Peterman will win the starting QB position barring injury. He'll be much improved from last season. Excited about Josh Allen as the starting QB, but Peterman is the guy people aren't talking about right now who will have everyone talking by the end of training camp. He's worked on his mechanics, is said to have added velocity to his throws, has a lot to prove and is no stranger to struggling early in his career and picking himself up. A little talked about fact concerning Peterman is that he's right up there with Allen as Bills QB's who've scored high on the Wonderlic test for those who equate the test to mental sharpness. I still hold to the belief that Peterman was at the very least a third round prospect in his draft class. Peterman will be the guy. So this is how I have it panning out... 1. Peterman 2. McCarron 3. Allen With Allen at three for his protection as he starts out his young career. 12 2 17 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Murica Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 There needs to be some type of Breathalyzer device implemented before posting threads on the message board. Peterman is fighting for a roster spot. I was okay with him starting since the offense was wet dog **** with Tyrod in there. But, I've seen enough of Peterman. We have McCarron and Allen who both are relatively young. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xsoldier54 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 LOL well I completely disagree with your assessment. IMO McCarron is the starter, Allen will be number two and Peterman will be three if they decide to keep three QB's. I base that on nothing but my own gut feeling. It will be fun to see how things shake out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 I think Peterman has a better chance of being the starter than people think, but I definitely wouldn't call him the favorite. If I was assigning percentages I'd say Allen is 50% likely, McCarron 35%, and Peterman 15%. I'd like to see where his arm strength is now that he's had a full year to work on it. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you have it I would switch McCarron and Allen's % myself. But Peterman is pretty clearly third in line as of right now. OP I will lay you 5-1 on Peterman vs the field named week 1 starter.

njbuff Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 It’s all about Allen being ready or not for week one. We need for this whole thing to play out instead of making silly predictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Prediction: Peterman doesn’t make the final 53. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepthefaith Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 It'll be tough for Nate to beat AJ for the starting job unless AJ gets hurt IMO, but I do think Nate will be a starter in the league at some point in his career, not likely in Buffalo though. Obviously the SD game last year will be hard to overcome in the minds of many including the coaches. He'll have to have some period of sustained improvement before people will have confidence in him and if you don't play it's hard to demonstrate that, but I think he'll get his chance somewhere at some point. Josh waiting a year is not a bad thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOUSE Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Not out of the question, any of the 3 could easily start that game. I seriously doubt Nathan Peterman starting would shock anyone here but it all depends on preseason performances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 (edited) Why do people believe in Peterman? It’s an honest question? He was historically bad and was a 5th round pick for a reason. People hated Fitz, Orton, and Tyrod who were all decent and swear by Peterman. It is so strange. We are the only fan base in the world that prefers scrubs to decent. That is unique to Bills fans.

The point remains that there is literally nothing to based this thread on given what Peterman has shown in actual game play. Dream on with McCarron or Allen the most likely to start. LAMP!
