transplantbillsfan Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Right? Are people still really fighting the obviousness of this? Preseason hero. Regular season dud. The backup so many clamor for, but reality sets in once he starts. Actually, Tuel may have been better. At least he could get a 1st down. amiright? And before you accuse me of rooting against Peterman, I wasn't. The best outcome today would have been Peterman playing lights out and winning. This, I think, was the 2nd best outcome. Rip the band-aid off and end this debacle early. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenorthremembers Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 I was actually thinking about Jeff Tuel cooking dinner after the game today. I thought, holy hell Peterman is actually worse than Jeff Tuel. And Tuel ended up on a practice squad after he left here. Peterman probably wont make a team after he leaves Buffalo.

transient Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Wasn’t Tuel a Bryce somethin’ or other fumble through the end zone for a touchback away from winning against KC? I’d’ve taken that today in hindsight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Thad Lewis > Tuel & Peterman. He was also better than EJ too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seanbillsfan2206 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 We need to bring in Paxton Lynch. Yes, that Paxton Lynch. Get him up to speed and then drop Peterman off in the woods somewhere and never look back 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Just now, Rico said: Thad Lewis > Tuel & Peterman. He was also better than EJ too. Agree. He had some NFL qualities. Backup at best but he had some skills. Peterman cannot play in this league. Tuel couldn't either. I would take EJ as a backup now and EJ stinks.

I don't want to compare them, but (for better or worse), Lewis, Fitzy, and TT were all gamers. Even if the results ended up dismal, I always felt going in with them that the Bills had a chance of winning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny thing is that if you look at some posting before today you're going to find a bunch of Peterman homers who have recently said crap like "I never bought into the Tuel hype!" I get a lot wrong on this board. I don't really care because it's just all in good fun. But one thing I've been steadfast in going all the way back to last preseason--when Peterman was also "playing well"--was that he just isn't an NFL starter. What's frightening is that the fact that we traded McCarron. That says that McDermott was legitimately convinced he could be a viable NFL starting QB rather than that he just wanted to protect Allen to start the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) Tuel played better than that. He lit the Chiefs up when they came in at 8-0 and they should have won that game. I was there watching it. Yeah he made some bad plays but still...way more than what Peterman did. Edited September 9, 2018 by matter2003 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackOrton Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Thad Lewis was and is the best QB we've had pre-Tyrod not named Kyle Orton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lfod Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) Nathan Peterman hasn't finished an NFL game. I supported him in preseason. I was in favor of him starting. I really wanted the kid to get redemption. I could try to make excuses but I won't. I said to myself if they pull Nathan Peterman before the game was officially over then he is done for good in Buffalo. That is my opinion now. I won't put this disaster of a game all on Peterman. The defense didn't come alive until about half time. He didn't cause all the penalties. I just didn't think he had any perseverance in the face of adversity. He played scared then tried to be a hero and was pulled from the game. Peterman is straight toast now. I feel bad for him honestly.

We watched our 2 most recent QBs get a W and a Tie today while our own QB couldn't even muster 30 yards passing or a 1st down. Remember all the whiners about Taylor? Was he ever this bad? Here's the lesson some should take from Peterman's performance: the grass is NOT always greener on the other side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
