Almost makes me wonder if it was a test by Coach McDermott to see if Nasty Nate has improved any on that pass over the off season. It was like the same exact play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transplantbillsfan Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) This is the dumbest thread in history. I really don't understand how anyone has given Peterman this much thought as an NFL starter. He's never going to be an NFL starter. Gunslinger mentality + Weak a$$ NFL arm = No chance to be a viable NFL starting QB Honestly even last year when he was also a preseason hero I said his arm was too weak to be an NFL starting QB. And then the Chargers half happened. Please stop this nonsense. Keep him as a backup. He's fine riding the pine... I think the Bills thought Allen would be fine as a starting QB the moment they drafted him considering the weak competition he was going against. How has the OP not shut this down?

For example, the top 5 leaders in 2018 preseason YPA are: (drumroll)... 1. Landry Jones (BOOM) 2. Marcus Mariota (represent!) 3. Taylor Heinicke...errr... 4. our very own- Nathan Peterman!!! 5. and whoever Nick Mullens is CUZ PRESEASON YPA ?

BananaB Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) His 6 interceptions in just over 50 snaps really worries me. You can just say it was one game, but the other night I seen some scrub jump his route and almost have a pick 6. He played well in the Colts game and made some nice throw, but nobody had any grip so his passes were uncontested.

Thus far I am not impressed. Yep. I had moderate hopes. Not seeing it. I know it's "just preseason" etc but I just was not seeing anything I like from him when he was out there. Obviously I don't think np is the answer, regardless of how solid he's played this preseason, and am all in for Josh Allen, but I don't want him starting during the regular season until after the brutal dlines we have early season. I know there are those that disagree with me, that the best QB should be out there, and I do see that pov, but I just don't want to see Allen killed, although he might be forced to start anyway, since I'm pretty sure that np and aj will get decimated against those same dlines, since they don't move anywhere as well as Allen. It's a tough call, and I don't think I'd be upset with whichever way McD went. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don’t want any part of peterman starting but after the first part of the preseason, with him getting plenty of first team reps and even a start, saying it’s the dumbest thread in history is honestly just really dumb on your part. You dont have to understand why anyone would give him this much thought as a starter but it’s fairly evident that the coach we’re all growing to love has differing opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus far I am not impressed. Yeah, there were people here that actually believed that McCarron was an upgrade from Tyrod. The league spoke pretty loudly on their thoughts about McCarron when he signed that tiny contract. Guys like Keenum, Bridgewater & McCown were paid way more to essentially do the same thing. There’s a decent chance that McCarron ends up getting traded to Seattle IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like Seattle is pretty set on acquiring a guy. I’d pick up the phone if I were Beane. I’d tell them, “take your pick.” Allen is far enough along that they can keep 2 QBs. If they get out of the preseason healthy they can go Allen and a backup. There are enough good vets out there that you can add a guy in a pinch during the season if necessary. You can also take a young guy onto the PS if you want. This would allow the Bills to keep an extra player elsewhere that may play and get another pick. Just a thought at this point but it makes some sense. 3 minutes ago, billsredneck1 said: i think at some point a.j. will either end up with the bucs or saints. Those are both solid options as well!!

Another option for Seattle, but TB will want to go where he has a chance at being a starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were the Broncos I’d pick up the phone yesterday and make that call. I think that the Jets can get a 2 for him which will make him a GREAT signing from their standpoint. He has to get traded somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy in that the concept you mentioned is what they are following. IMO they'll start allen if/when they deem him fit no matter how quick or long that takes, and that's the boat i'm on. I don't care if its week 1 or week 10.... i believe Peterman is an option but i want no part of it. i have absolutely no faith in his game when the bullets start to fly. if they think the rookie is ready count me in on that one. and FTR, while tranny is irritating, i find the "drinkers" a lot less annoying that the persistent pessimists.
