well the FO would have more time to develop AJ, and hopefully address the OL situation without throwing their 1st round draft pick to the wolves.

By your logic, what was the point of keeping tom Brady his first year?  Or many other greats that did not start week one of their rookie year?  Trolling, much?  

perhaps they were being genuine.

If you watched the game yesterday, the only question you should be asking is, is Beane updating his database of NFL FA QBs hourly?  Methinks he'll need it.

In addition to what others have posted about the atrocious oline play, may I add as well that you or I haven't got a clue what else AJ offers to this team even as a second or third QB. I have heard he is pretty good in the film room and can help 2 young QBs there. By your thought process, why keep Bush if we have Poyer and Hyde? So, lets recap.

 

1. Keep him because hes not an expensive player.

2. Not likely to find someone better at this point in preseason.

3.He has the most experience as an NFL QB in the QB room. 

4. Bad oline play, really going to need depth at the position.

5. Can help Allen and Peterman in the film room.

6. Have to list his smoking hot wife.

AJ May start.

week 4?  could be 

 

or not 

 

“When you look across all three games to this point, including practice, but let’s just take the games, he has shown that consistency, which is good to see,” said McDermott. “A young player just in the start of his second season who has shown some poise and some understanding of how the NFL works in terms of defensive schemes. So I’ve watched him grow and develop, which is good to see. Still more work to do, but I think he has been consistent, which is important at the quarterback position.”

 

Perhaps what is most impressive about Peterman’s game is his ball location. Not only is Peterman accurate most of the time, but his ball placement is almost always in a place where only his receiving target can make a play on the ball and not the defender.

 

“I think he’s been accurate,” said McDermott. “We noticed that in college as well. Certainly, there are some throws he’d like back from practice to games, but again he gives the guys a chance to run after the catch, which is important.”

 

Peterman was responsible for orchestrating both of the team’s touchdown drives in the second half. He’s a rhythm passer, who has generally made good decisions and been extremely accurate. That counts for a lot in the NFL. It appears he’s put himself in the best position to be named the starter, but he’s not assuming anything.

McCarron pretty assuredly isn't "great".

 

But he has a smoking hot model wife so it adds to the hotness at the stadium. This alone is reason enough to keep him.

I must add that Josh looked lost and held the ball to long.  It wasn't all on the line.  Not saying they didn't stink but he has to get rid of the ball and not take sacks.  He should have had an int. also.  Peterman should start.  He looked poised and has shown promise.

Because in back to back weeks our starting qb has had to leave the game due to getting hurt behind a horrible online. I’m pretty sure all 3 will play this year. 

 

all 3 played last year and we had a better O Line.  And if our 3rd guy didn't step up in the clutch, we'd be sitting on 18 now.

Peterman can float a good ball to the sidelines, which looks good in pre-season play against a vanilla defense.

 

Play a regular season game, against a tricked out D, and Petermen's skills will fade into nothing.

 

Petermen's ceiling against regular season-D's is low. Allen's ceiling is higher.

I believe Sal mentioned it would cost the Bills about 3 plus million dollars to get rid of him.  In other words unless you are so worried about the extra roster spot it would be a wash to get rid of him, as much as just keeping him.

Because we really don’t know anything until a few games in.

 

panthers didn’t rush or blitz in gm 1.

 

so we’ve yet to see if Nate fixed his happy feet.

 

He looked poor under pressure v Cleveland. 

 

Vs Cincinnati’s twos they dropped into cover what looked like cover four and no blitzes. 

 

A fresh aggressive defense will be the real litmus test. 

 

And i say once more. Wow what a difference between Cleveland and cincis 1s and 2s. O line was just abused

I agree.  The line was bad, but so was he.  I was very disappointed when in the 1st quarter, he had 2 plays in a row where he could have done something, but made horrid passes instead.  I'm talking about the one where he rolled out out of pressure to the right and had time and had Clay deep, but horribly under threw him. I was told with that cannon arm he would never under throw anyone.  Luckily it wasn't a pick.  The next play he had time and looked like some open guys but he just rifled it out there between them all.  I'm not sure who he was throwing to.  Another punt.  He did make some nice short passes which I was glad to see.

The o-line appears so bad . . . not sure two qbs is enough to get through the season.

 

seriously we might want to start scouring the waivers for a 4th and possible 5th option
