Buffalo716 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 From all of his preseason play from last year, his regular season appearances and his preseason this year Was the ability to throw over the top of a defense to keep them honest... yes a quick rhythm passing game is nice, but it’s only effective for so long if you cannot stretch the Defense even Fitz attempted and has pushed the ball downfield, with success and failure eventually CBs and Safeties will sit on the underneath routes and jam up passing lanes if Peterman shows he will not throw downfield Hopefully he takes some calculated shots downfield this Sunday to Benjamin and Company to open up some room for Shady, ivory and Murphy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 This is my biggest concern about Peterman. The field is much smaller. But it is odd that I haven't seen a single deep ball from him. I don't even remember reading about one in practice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I've never seen him play a game from start to finish. I've never seen him win a game as the starting QB that didn't involve what an insurence agency would classify an "Act of God". I've never seen him quit either. I've never seen him make excuses. I've never seen him work harder than he did this off-season to improve. I've never seen a player with so much to prove. While I don't expect Nate to look like Rodgers 2.0 I am hopeful that the work he put in during the off-season and the addition of Brian Daboll can show he is at the very least a servicible spot starter in the NFL. 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn’t have that much to prove. He is a 5th round QB who is keeping the seat warm for a first round pick Nobody expected him to be anything other than MAYBE a backup... except saviorpeterman ... he should only be trying to prove to himself he can play.. not care about anyone else 3 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Do you think our OL can hold long enough to let a WR get deep? That depends hapless... do I think we can go 3-4 wide with only 5 lineman and dial up a deep play? No Do I think Daboll can go singleback or I form, keep in some extra blockers and dial up a PA shot play? Yes Edited September 6, 2018 by Buffalo716 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I have never seen him be a complete NFL starting quarterback. Something you can easily do in a 21 point loss. It just means showing all of the essential qualities. So far, he either doesn't possess them all, or he has been playing possum for 24 straight years.

Whether a 9 route or deep post ". I agree that if they put in extra blockers and chip they can dial up a deep route, more thinking that the "most plays" deep guy isn't gonna see much action Just watched a Cover1 analysis of a few Peterman plays in the Panthers game and he pointed out something I have not been aware of - reliance on cuts by our OT (it's at 9:40) Cover1 points out the positives of this strategy and praises the scheming by Daboll, but of course the negative is if the QB does not get the ball out lickety-split or the play busts up downfield, chances are you now have two big, athletic DE who stayed on their feet and are coming for the QB like a pair of deranged bookends. Tell me why I should agree with Cover1 that this is a Good Thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he came out (and no, I dont care what round he was drafted in) hehad a small amount of buzz around him. In his first chance like it or not, he became a national punchline. Any man with any self worth is going to strive to prove himself. Now, as I stated no, he's not likely to be a franchise QB for any team. But he can still be what I believe he would have become . A back up, spot starter. I could easily still see him (if he shows well this year) having a Todd Collins/Chase Daniel type career. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seasons1992 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 He's gonna need to be quick all season. Like Marino-quick on the release. Bruce could never sack Marino for this reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsherd Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I thought he threw one long ball to either Benjamin or one of our back up receivers in the 1st preseason game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 (edited) We did see it on the 1st drive vs Carolina. I'm begging them to call a hitch and go on the very 1st play. You know the Ravens will be thinking INT early in this game. Edited September 6, 2018 by TheTruthHurts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, as I said the only person he has to prove anything to is himself he can certainly become a capable backup but he can certainly fail... thats why I wouldn’t say IVE NEVER SEEN a player with that much to prove... he was projected as a backup, not a starter he doesnt have that much pressure on him except the pressure he creates Edited September 6, 2018 by Buffalo716 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 18 yards in the air with no one really near Benjamin. Good pass, right on the money, but not long and not difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
