zow2 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I went to the Bills game a couple years ago vs San Fran and Kaepernick. Bills fans could not have hated any single person more than Kap. He would never be signed here in a million years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The length of injury he's referencing just isn't anywhere close to what McDermott said, he didn't even eliminate him from starting Sunday. He was pretty close to the vest on all things QB today, with good reason. There’s a lot going on there. But the team is sending the MRI to Dr James Andrews and anytime you hear that name, not usually great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad news.....if he has a partial tear it could pop at any time and the timing might be such that it destroys two seasons for him in the future. Good news......trusting the process pays off......McBean was prepared.....they just bought a cadaver with about the same sleeve length last week. I'm no doctor but a still warm Carolina-quality UCL should shave a good 3-4 weeks off the recovery time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God help us if its bad and needs tommy john surgery or loses his cannon arm Amputation should be considered here. I mean it is the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please, please someone distract me from that Distraction from barber shops. Do you really think Kapernick would do any better? This isn't 2013 and he sucked in 2016.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 The only time we have been able to watch real nfl football recently was when Orton played. That’s what Anderson can offer us. I would be thrilled to watch a Bills game and not just sit there thinking, how will we ever score? That’s not normal. Yet every game with this team it feels that way. Anderson is a guy that can actually use the WRs and run a replacement level nfl passing offense. The way every other team in the league already is capable of. This can be a blessing in disguise.

We all knew this was coming. Beane ignored the oline for 2 years and this is the result. This is the perfect time to develop him. Chance for him to learn from the bench and then come back in late in the season and have a go at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Lightning Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 20 minutes ago, Mike in Syracuse said: If he were to go out and throw for 300 yards in his first couple of games no one would care. The circus would be over. Kaepernick was brave enough to tell you how he feels about things. If every NFL player did fans would hate half the league. All that said, there's zero chance the Bills do that. Kaep couldn't put up 300 yards in 2 games. We have enough meh quarterbacks now, we don't need another one who brings a circus with him.

I would actually rather watch Peterman........and Nate's presence on the field disgusts me. Anderson's 2-17 for 23 yards stat line in arguably the worst NFL game ever played.......Browns 6 Bills 3........is without doubt the worst full game performance by any QB in the history of the stadium at Orchard Park........and now he is a Bills starting QB........and old with no upside or future.......and probably didn't even really want to play.

McBean Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I’m sorry but give me Peterman all day over Anderson. I want this to finally go up in flames. Give me the #1 overall pick instead of 6-10 with Derek Anderson who’s playing his last season of football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The humiliation playing Nathan Peterman for a full season will bring while he sets the NFL record for INT’s isn’t worth a spot or two of draft position. The best players in the upcoming draft play on the DL anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 30 minutes ago, Happy Gilmore said: Is your theory promising or bad news? Bad news I guess? Since Yolo asked also I'll dish. I think Allen was injured against Green Bay during one of his multitude of sacks and hits. I think this is a re-hit to an existing injury, which are often worse. Why I think that: While I believe they genuinely wanted to focus on controlling the LOS and getting the run game going, I think the very low numbers of passes vs Tenn and Hou was because they were trying to play Allen through an injury that left him functional, and had him on a "pitch count". I think a number of other things point towards an Allen injury after GB: -The sudden decision to pursue and sign Anderson (why now, and not before? Allen has needed a vet mentor next to him since before Week 1) -Benjamin's comment about Josh Allen going in earlier than the rest of the team for "his routine" (what takes more time? pain injections maybe?) It's just my theory and might be totally whack though 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills have done such a remarkably poor job managing the QB situation this year, there should be a "how not to" manual written about it with them as Case 'A'.
