Nah, jk, this team is being run by incompetent s. 100 percent right! I really remained silent, trying to let the “process” play out. Everything they are doing is a complete joke. I really didnt like the Daboll hire- it is looking more and more like he will be another OC dud in a long list of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Team just has NO IDEA what they are doing reference QB agreed. there is just no way you take allen out now. if there are regrets about keeping him in there in this "trial by fire", then perhaps they should have had the foresight to sign a true vet like this early in the offseason.

Big Turk Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Just now, RPbillsfan said: Perfect review and analysis. Anderson has the same type of baseline skills, big, mobile and huge inaccurate arm, all at much lower levels of talent then Josh Allen. This is a very smart move. Sorry for Nate, seems like a nice guy, but not an NFL caliber player. If he could translate what he does in practice/pre-season to the actual games, Nate would be decent. Unfortunately whether its a case of nerves, the "Yips", him freaking out or whatever happens, he literally forgets everything he does in places where the outcomes don't matter.

Palmer isnt ever going to coach makes good $$$ doing what he is doing without the grind Yeah but they are probably going to use him Incase of an injury instead of peterman and him as a player will allow Allen to be shown how a vet prepares before a game and how he gets ready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iinii Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 IF and obviously a big IF, they handle it right Anderson getting some pt isn’t the worst thing in the world. The way Allen is getting knocked around isn’t healthy mentally or physically. Everyone talks about game speed as opposed to practice reps. Watching a vet in a game could help in his development. Low risk/high reward. Josh should know he is the future and Anderson poses no threat to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiltonWaddams Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I hope this means the end of Peterman in Buffalo. Why keep a guy who doesn't show up on game day? I don't believe for a second that Anderson is being brought in to play. He's being brought in for veteran leadership and comprehension of the playbook to pass it on to a young QB struggling with his ability to diagnose plays and read the field. At least that's my take until OBD does the next stupid thing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point, you cannot do this. Fine if that was the plan all along and the Bills had another QB that can actually play ( not necessarily well) in the league. Now that Allen has been the starter, you must leave him in except in case of injury. In that sense, the signing is a good one. Being one play away from being forced to play Nathan Peterman in an NFL game is a place that no team should put itself in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreatComeback Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Question is - do the Bills cut their losses and get rid of Peterman?

During his Carolina stint he has a 66% completion record and a 90 QB Rating. He's not super skilled but he knows how to play. Despite some of the comments, he will help Josh Allen a lot.

billsfan89 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 1 hour ago, Estro said: Bye bye Nate? Or is this possibly a move to get Allen back to the bench if they feel hes in over his head? This team is more of a mess than I thought if it's the latter. It's going to take a little bit of time for Anderson to know the playbook. At least two weeks to familiarize himself with enough of it. So Peterman is likely safe for the short term. But I don't see this as a move to push Allen to the bench. There is nothing to gain by having Andreson play. I see this more as a move to improve the backup situation if Allen gets hurt and to give Allen a veteran voice to lean on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
