Oakland, where failed Bills QB careers end

  1. AJ McCarron is just the latest ex-Bills QB to end up on the Raiders.  EJ landed there last year, as have former Bills QB washouts Trent Edwards, who got cut not once, but in 2 separate pre seasons, J P Losman, who landed in Oakland after the UFL and Rob Johnson whose career ended in Giants camp but whose  last real NFL game was as a Raider.  Will Nate Peterman be in Raiders camp in 2019?

When you've had as many failed QBs as we've had, the probability of a few ending up on the same team over the years probably isn't that high.  I wouldn't be surprised if a few other teams have had more than one of our failed QBs on their roster at some point as well.

To this point we are lucky things panned out the way they have it was a bad coaching move any way you look at it to let the one guy with the most experience although it be not a lot of experience walk when you have a rookie QB with no regular season in game experience & a second year QB with the history that Nate had !

 

If Allen gets hurt the Bills are screwed & at the very least i think AJ would have given the team a much better chance at winning than Petermen I know McD likes Nate & Nate is a lot like Tyrod, great work ethic, great team player, good leader, but when they get on the field for what ever reason it just doesn't show up !!

 

Which is the reason that Tyrod & Petermen are now both on the bench & their respective rookie QB's that were to be behind them to learn have kicked both their asses when given a chance & took their jobs from them .

 

I just pray Allen doesn't get hurt !! ?

Well duh they stole Darryl Lamonica from us in that trade.  They're still trying for a repeat.

I’d feel bad putting McCarron in that group. He didn’t get a shot in Buffalo, and in hindsight, we definitely should have kept him on the roster...

I don't think so, McCarron made some stupid mistakes in preseason, mistakes a 5 year vet shouldn't make, I'll take the 5th thank you.

 

This is Allen's team now, I'm glad McCarron isn't here to potentially divide the locker room, Allen is in charge now.

Ryan Fitzpatrick is not a failed QB hence why he has never been on Raiders offense.

 

He will probably end his career in Las Vegas after a few more stops first.

I thought about saying that they've been trying to duplicate Lamonica, but then I thought about the gap between the years and the fact that Lamonica never washed out in Buffalo like the others.  Mini camp & preseason was all that was needed for the Bills to know they should take whatever they can for McCarron.  I guess EJ was so bad they just had to go back to the Bills for his replacement.  

It's almost like the reverse of when I was a kid so many years ago and I was a big Yankees fan (they're still my top baseball team and when the Bills are bad, I think they're just making up for all the good years the Yankees have given me) and the Yankees would always make these one sided trades with the KC A's.  Guys who were mediocre or unknown in KC went to the Yankees and became stars.  The biggest name was Roger Maris, who as a Yankee broke Babe Ruth's homerun record.
