If the guy just had a little more zip in that arm he'd be the starter hands down before Josh is ready. Showed good vision, progression and control of the offense. Unfortunately his arm reminds me of Chad Pennington.


Nothing wrong with Chad.

There is no way. We are keeping 3 QBs this year.

Why not? And if not, who goes? I still think AJM gives them the best chance to win now if they put Josh on the back burner.

Nothing spectacular either. But for a back up role, more than good enough.

For those folks, it is no longer REALLY about Nate Peterman. NOW it is all about defending their (hasty) judgement/opinion.

 

IF, Peterman ends up being the backup QB for the Bills, we will NEVER hear the end of it - EVER.

 

 

Funny, "2 good series" was enough to crucify him, why shouldn't it be enough to resurrect him?

 

Careful Nate haters, you soon will be in a position to aim your poor judgement at our newest rookie. 

 

WHEN will Josh make HIS fatal mistake?

Im not a Nate hater im just saying 2 series is hardly enough to anoint him Savior and think we have a lot of trade bait. I never crucified him for his god awful 5 int game. thought that game had a lot to do with other aspects of the game than just NP. IE turnstyle mills watching Bosa fly by him all day

So on ten passes, he threw long twice. Of the "short" passes, several were in the air a good amount of time because they were outs. And if I recall correctly, the pass to Benjamin HAD to be dropped in; if it was zipped, it would have been intercepted or knocked down.

Not sure if any QB in the NFL throws long balls 20% of the time, but he completed both of them.

He was one of the most accurate QBs of his time. He was comeback player of the year, I think twice. He led a nondescript Jets team pretty well; you might want to look at his roster choices. 

If you have Chad Pennington in today's game, you are in the playoffs pretty regularly. Injury prone, for sure. But he'd rip you up.

The question about Nate is arm strength and velocity.   Very few examples of that last night.   The throw to Streeter and the sideline throw to Benjamin are really all I can think of.   And then he has to wind up like Fitzpatrick used to and really try to muscle the ball.    Frankly, that's just not going to get him through many games when the D is game-planning to take away his short options...

18 yards in the air is not a long pass. Sorry. Regardless of the short v long delineation in that kind of play by play. 

 

And the other one wasnt a play.

dude had 2 good series cmon> Not being a hater but lets see him play that way for a whole game and then ill think we have some trade bait. If he plays that well for the whole game id like to keep him though

2 good series in a preseason game........

 

Cant blame him for a historically bad 1/2 of a regular season game, but can annoint him a starter after 2 series in game 1 of the preseason.......

This is coming from the same fanbase that thought Trent Edward's was also going to be a great starting QB......

On his 9 completions, the ball was in the air for an average of less than seven yards.  The rest was RATC.   

 

Very Chad Pennington-like, which makes for a great back up but ugly starter...

Hey, maybe Nate would play better if someone else was calling the plays - wait...

 

Maybe, just maybe, Nate was throwing the ball right where he was TOLD to throw the ball. :doh:

 

You Nate-haters are just insufferable!

As good as NP looked last night I was still left with a ho-hum feeling. I can only hope Josh becomes a lot more relevant than Chad P. To me he was the definition of average, Career 66% / 102 TDs, 64 INTs/ 200 yds per game. Sound familiar? It should cause we just got rid of a guy just like him but with running ability. I do agree with you that if Nate can evolve into a CP type clone that would be perfect for our back up position but as a starter, no way. Chad was pretty decent but we didn't draft Josh 7th overall to be decent.

 

66% is pretty darn good. Couple hundred a game - meh, sort of Joe Montanaish. He also had his share of 300 yard games. Chad was narrowly beaten out by Peyton as league MVP one year. Twice comeback player of the year. Played a long time in the league. 

If NP can morph into Chad I'll be deliriously happy. Turning a fifth round pick into the equivalent of 18th overall.

Sure if Allen can develop into Elway, he's the starter and with Nate/Chad backing him up the Bills would prolly have the best tandem under centre league wide. 

The rap against Nate is arm strength. I defer to more knowledgeable posters on this but I'm not sure arm strength alone will be the reason he fails to make it in the NFL. Maybe a stupid question but is his arm that much weaker than Drew Brees? Or Joe Montana? For almost all QBs, including the great one, so much depends on scheme and offensive philosophy.

Nondescript? You might want to check that 2003 Jets roster. Very good players both O and D. Chad was ok, but he'd be passable in todays league, not rip it up. He doesn't have the arm strength to keep Defenses and DB's honest in what is now a passing league.  He'd need a serious run game to mask that arm.

Accuracy and release speed is enough - but they have to be plus components. 

I questioned the former in what I saw last year. Yesterday he couldn't have been any more accurate. Even that pass to Ivory was close enough for anyone that hopes to be catching balls in the NFL. 

The flip side of speed is that balls aren't catchable. You saw that last night with Allen, several times; those jokes about broken fingers are real and they cause more turnovers than a weak arm will cause.

Lamar Jackson

DeShaun Watson
Tyrod Taylor .. all spinned at or less than Peterman at the Combine.
 

There are stacks of QBs throwing within 2 MPH of Peterman. And that assumes that Peterman didn't - as is widely suggested - improve his speed this past offseason. I think Drew Brees gets by pretty good with a not so impressive arm. When Brady came into the league, he was widely thought of as having not the best arm in football.

Arm strength is BS. You cannot game plan for release or for accuracy or mental makeup.

And outside of 2003, Pennington had a pretty poor group of teammates, but he won plenty of games. He'd win as many today. I think you are way, way undervaluing the guy - I saw a lot of his games, being a Long Island guy. He was the reason his teams won games.

Trade bait?!  Haha.  I'm not sure how many teams in the NFL are clamoring to trade for a QB with one start and a TD to INT ratio of .4.  If we somehow find a GM that stupid, let me know.....I have some swamp land for sale at a great price.  OP has to be trolling...haha.
