Sky Diver Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I thought that all the QBs played well, and Teller, Ray-Ray, and Wallace helped themselves. Foster showed an ability to get behind the defense and made a good catch on the ball that drifted out of bounds, but he needs some work. Looks like a PS candidate.

BmarvB Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Murphy and all 3 QB's helped themselves. Depth players didn't do themselves any favors. Foster could have done more to help himself. He's looking at PS right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Popinski Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Teller was definitely doing well, minus the penalty. McCloud definitely helped himself. Foster stopping on that deep route would have been a TD if he had kept running, that definitely hurt him. I think Allen helped himself too. Daboll, i liked what I saw from him calling plays.

He gives up on plays and gets lazy when deep in progressions and thay was on display. I think he even needs to salvage his camp to even get a PS invite at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He caught a ball out of bounds. He got ample opportunities because between him and Coleman they are desperately trying to find a deep threat. He made multiple mistakes and displayed a lack of effort. He needs a much better performance on Friday or he is toast. Running past a third string DB who is playing off coverage doesn’t tell us anything. Can he get off the LOS, can he track the ball, can he catch, is he scared of laying out for the ball? Needs to show a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 K Benj looked absolutely fantastic out there. I dunno if he was just fired up for the cats or if he’s just recovered and in a system that uses him better. I will also say Peterman gets the ball out fast, but I’m thinking that won’t work as well when coverages start getting mixed up. Im not sure if he’s reading or just deciding where he throwing before the snap. That pick was poor ball placement to ivory, even though it should have been caught. thing I loved most about Allen, he climbs the pocket like No one I’ve seen in a bills jersey in a very long long long time. Lawson even looked decent, But he’s not going to be that dominant end we need to see. Lee with a ridiculous catch on a ridiculous throw.

When the ball was actually in play he failed, multiple times. On a clearly errant pass he ran under it, that doesn’t give me any confidence he can do it when it matters. Running past a scrub corner playing off coverage means nothing, I don’t care if it’s 20 yards. That won’t happen when it matters. Right from his scouting report “football instincts are lacking” “falters in his track on deep throws” Until he shakes that rep it’s Coleman’s job to lose.

I dont have Bama Hate. So What would be clouding mine again?? Numerous times gave up on routes, has been sliding down and down all camp. Since he put pads on he essentially has a hard time getting off the line. Has hands problems. Has been passed by other WRs clearly with them getting higher reps. He doesnt make the PS at this point if they had to make the cuts right now. He has alot of work to do before he even gets to PS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Peterman had a good game but I think people going nuts over it are silly. For one its the first pre-season game, although not as meaningless as the 4th it is one that carries less weight. I also caution that Peterman looked like a world beater in last years pre-season and we all know he wasn't ready. There are just some players that shine much better in pre-season than they do in the real games. I think that Peterman is one of those types of players.

I am not sure where the lack of effort comment is coming from. He outraced two veteran cornerbacks. He's a legitimate deep threat that will have to be accounted for. We need to have at least one on the roster. I am encouraged that he was able to get so far behind the defenders. Get the timing down and Allen to Foster could be deadly.

JimKellyTryouts Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 In defense of Foster, he did show that he could break open for a large majority of the game. The drop on the curl is 100% on him, as is him stopping the run on the offsides penalty. Allen pointed the finger at himself for throwing an out instead of a comeback on another play, and his first deep ball was off, too. Allen also locked into Proehl on the play that should have yielded a flag, but Foster looked to be wide open over the middle from the replay angles. I'm sure everything we're saying here in regards to concentration and effort will be stressed more than enough from Daboll and Robiskie. He has a huge opportunity to rebound from this all the way until the fourth game wraps up. I'd be shocked and pissed if we cut him anytime soon without the chance to redeem himself.
