transplantbillsfan Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 The positive is the change at QB that today forced. I honestly am optimistic about our season still. Peterman being so awful forced this change before we fell too much in the hole. I think the play of the entire team will get better when Allen is the starter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ego of McDermott will make it very difficult to start Allen in Week 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're right that he's going to be searching for an acceptable reason to start Peterman again. Is there one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have said all off-season to start Allen from Game 1, even if he is not 100% ready. I don't know what he tells the players, but he can probably get them to buy in 1 more time. Another Peterman disaster and I don't think he could start him a THIRD time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think McD would like to start Nate one more time but he may lose his team. That may be the reason he goes with the only logical choice, which is Allen.

I think we'll find out tomorrow. He needs to declare one guy or the other the starter and start building support behind that guy right away.

I think the whole team mostly gave up early in the second quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tell them it could of been worse he could of had 5 picks...no wait they're playing the Chargers next week probably shouldn't bring that up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I'm convinced Allen has the maturity not to lose his confidence over a bad OL. My bigger concern is him getting hurt especially after the throw hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBJ would have grabbed that ball off the defenders back. I'd do nothing but make Foster grab balls in weird positions in practice. He's too used to being wide open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPS Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I believe Jerry Hughes is now the all-time leader of "in the grasp no-sacks." The number of times a guy has his hands on the QB but fails to get him down.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Lightning Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 It was the worst opening day in Bills history. Positives? It wasn't the worst day in Bills history. No, no positives, a complete implosion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 O Line did better than I expected. Allen threw a couple nice bullets. We witnessed history, because in 50 years when someone starts a poll on TSW asking who the worst QB in Bills history is, Peterman will be the first unanimous choice, ever and at last, everyone on the board will agree on something.

Irv Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 (edited) I thought Shaq Lawson wasn't invisible as he has been in the past. Nice to see the surgery to remove the cinder blocks from Zay's hands was successful. Another positive is that, the coaching staff now knows that about 6-7 players do not know how to fall straight down on top of a ball. Got to work on that.

Give him a break. Billy Joe Holbert couldn't read. They don't teach that at U of Washington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
