Wily Dog Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Most of you are missing the reason for success for Peterman going forward. It is Dabolls system. Quick hitters , little time between plays, and off balance play calling . Think of New England offense . The ball will be out before the rush gets there .. It is not Peterman alone and the line only has to block for about 2 and 1/2 seconds. Go Bills and to hell with all of the nay sayers.I 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 for the 1st half at least..... You can't learn from the bench You can actually - up to a point. And you can learn on the practice field and in the QB room. Josh needs some of that. He's especially got to improve his pre-snap reads. That requires more time studying film.

GunnerBill Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 The ONLY thing Peterman has proven he does better than Tyrod is take up less salary cap space. That's it. Gets the ball out quickly better than Tyrod too. Just not always to the right team. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domdab99 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I mean, I'm glad he's getting a second chance, as he's worked hard and played well...but let's be honest: Unless he's the 2nd coming of Tom Brady, his fate is to be Tom Savage.

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Gets the ball out quickly better than Tyrod too. Just not always to the right team. ...and maybe even eclipse the 70 yard mark for game totals......would be a substantial milestone versus yesteryear.........why I read the WR's are free to roam in that uncharted territory known as DOWNFIELD (the "NO TREPASSING" sign has been removed) and may even be ACTIVE on a Sunday......stay tuned..... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Do we have the worst starting C in the league? I can't get the image of confused Groy just letting the Bengals run past him out of my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the other huge downside. I am not going to predict it will happen because I want the Bills to win so much. But it's possible that Nate will get killed because of his arm and not being able to handle the rush. And have to be benched again very early. Then McD will have to apologize to the team again like he did last year. I don't think it's likely but it's surely a distinct possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transplantbillsfan Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Guys... seriously...? This just feels obvious. It's always been Allen. It's why I've been calling it since OTAs. Crucify me if I'm wrong. I'm not like some on this board who just run away when they're wrong. But Allen starting has been pretty close to inevitable since we traded up to get him and didn't try to get a proven, viable alternative in front of him. Really? You think Allen is going to start? No way. That’s surprising! ? We all know Allen is going to start at some point. It’s just a matter of when that point is. It may not be opening day despite what you believe. And it wasn't. And I genuinely hope Peterman is the next Tom Brady rather than the terrible starting QB I think he is. After that 3rd preseason game I said I wanted Peterman rather than Allen to start week 1 specifically because of how horrible our OL has looked. My head generally likes the move, but I only feel anxiety and no excitement about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 What’s Peterman’s yank threshold? Anything less than 6 picks would have Allen starting the 2nd half in B’more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman1876 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I’m fine with it. Let Allen continue to work on his footwork, drop speed and depth, pre snap reads and the nuances of the offense. He’s already shown an ability to learn outside of game time reps after all. Then when he gets the call to start he’s in the best position to succeed.

There are no game like or even scrimmage like practices during the season and the second string guys don't participate in what little they do.

That was directed to your hope that SnottLaw would learn to deal with it. But yeah, he was not the answer this year or any other really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 He was too awful yet the guy starting set a world record for picks in a half in one game. "At least he throws.... OVER THE MIDDLE" Peterman is best throwing picks to the outside but fear not, he can throw them over the middle, too. In fact, slant patterns are where he is most inaccurate.
