What the FO didn’t know, and what was their job to know, was that Peterman would completely destruct during the season. Allen is playing pretty much as expected. As for signing Anderson, looks like they had little other choice. McD rigged it so it would appear that NP "won" that competition by shielding him from essentially any opponents starting D. Against bums, the sum of his performance was enough to give McD cover when he made the announcement that NP would be the week 1 starter. Of course, the result was completely predictable. A preventable disaster. How anyone can claim, now, that "the FO didn't know that Peterman would completely destruct during the season"...is laughable. Most fans on this site knew this was the only possible outcome of this decision. Edited October 17, 2018 by Mr. WEO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFC24 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 3 hours ago, hondo in seattle said: Beane had rational reasons to make each of the decisions that he made. But with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight, we can see that Peter King is right. The QB position - in its entirety - was mismanaged. Given where we're at now, you can't argue the point. Here we are with our only healthy QBs being Nate Peterman and his sub-30 career passer rating, and mediocre journeyman, Derek Anderson, who's barely had a week to learn the offense. Feels a bit like '68 when the awesome trio of Dan Darragh, Ed Rutkowski and Kay Stepenson were in the QB room and each of them had starts. from an outside standpoint it legit looks like Beane has no ***** clue what he is doing. he has mishandled so many positions..QB, OL, WR, CB. He basically traded away, let go all of our talent to clear up capspace to get Allen and bring in whatever FA's that will come here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why keep Shady and likely waste one of his last two good years? Why keep Lorax? It always amazes me how malleable the "these guys see the situation the way I do" phase of fan relationship with the new HC/GM is. It's entirely clear by action that McBeane do not see things the way fans who were anticipating "tank" last year and "step back" this year do and yet they continue to reach for that defense.

There have been plenty of later round picks that have made it in the NFL, so I really don’t think that’s the reason. As I recall Brady was solidly back end of his draft too, to cite an extreme example. I think NP’s deal is a bad combination of horrible situational football (his starts have mainly been on the road against great D’s) and play calling that offers him little in the way of using his strengths vs. minimizing his weaknesses, and yes, a pressure pipe of some kind bursting at the worst times causing him to forget everything he’s worked on during the week seemingly. I hate it for him, and us as the fans. Wish him well wherever life’s winding road leads him post-Buffalo, as that break will be happening soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterman outplayed McCaron in preseason and it looked like he may have been a viable option of course now in hindsight that was completely false but I doubt McCaron would have made a significant difference, maybe he wouldn't have thrown a pick 6 but A.J. was beaten out by a guy with more picks than TD passes so I'm not sure it's mismanagement. Maybe picking up Anderson a bit sooner would have been ideal. I'm not sure what miracle savior QB would have been a great option a few weeks ago though since this team isn't sending a draft pick for a bridge QB or we would have just kept McCaron.

It's that simple. What this really comes down to now is they should have gotten a veteran guy in when they traded McCarron. That's a legitimate criticism. They could have sweetened the offer to Anderson, could have maybe traded for a guy with the pick they got back for McCarron. That would have gotten whomever a few more weeks to learn the offense. But, again, Peterman played great in pre-season and , yes, everyone wants to talk about how the pre-season doesn't count, etc. But he earned a shot. And for whatever reason the kid throws up all over himself in regular season games. So they go to Allen, which I think everyone knew was coming and, again, one can argue it would have been better to have him sit, etc. We tend as fans to see things in a vacuum. For example, some say we should have kept Taylor and drafted a kid. The money for a backup aside, maybe Taylor had no interest in staying under those circumstances. We say they should have kept McCarron. We'll somewhere on this board it was reported yesterday McCarron wanted out if he wasn't the starter. How exactly does it help keeping a guy that doesn't want to be here? So we'll have a couple weeks with I presume Anderson as starter. I cannot imagine they'll start Peterman again. With the D playing the way it is, we have a good shot Sunday, and will lose the NE. Then Allen is back and we go forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buddo Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Going into the season with just Peterman and Allen as your QBs was stupid. Really stupid. I really don't care, that they were supposedly trying to sign another Panthers reject, months ago, as they didn't get it done. Which meant that they went into the season with Peterman and Allen as their only QBs, which was really stupid. While there are lots of little things that happen, that you can't control, e.g. McCarron getting injured, you can actually do things to correct those situations - which didn't have to involve trading McCarron, or if it did, then get someone else in, in a hurry. It may well be that the 'plan' was to try and get Allen in after a given number of games e.g. 6, but if you only have 2 QBs, both essentially rookies, on the roster, then it can be seen that Allen needing to start sooner, rather than later, was almost a given. You also need to have 'plan B' in place, if Allen wasn't ready to go, at whatever given time it was you thought he could be ready. That 'Plan B' wasn't in place, and it should have been. Ultimately, the QB situation has been both mishandled, and mismanaged, and the sooner someone owns up to that from the FO, the better, for all concerned. After the first game debacle, it was glaringly obvious, that Peterman just doesn't have it. There are a whole bunch of 'failed' QB prospects around the league, who could have come in and done a better job, and more importantly, been an improvement, which is supposedly what Beane is doing, i.e. looking for ways to improve the roster at every position. Or not, when it comes to QBs. For all that McDermott has his student notebooks for the game, he obviously didn't look too hard at recent Bills history and what happened with the EJ/Kolb/Jackson fiasco, as they essentially decided to pull the same sort of rubbish again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They created this mess by choice while 2013 was created by an injury to Kolb. You rail on Whaley every chance that you get but don’t distort the facts. The Bills were unlucky in 2013. The Bills were stupid in 2018. They also drafted receivers in rounds 2 and 3 in 2013 to support their young QB. Those receivers played along side Stevie who was young as well.

First thing McD says in his first press conference is how he’s a man of faith. Back when Peterman was named the starter (lmao) they did an article on how he’s a man of faith. Jesus never won a football game, god has absolutely nothing to do with football, but he actually weighs faith in his talent ruberic. There’s no other reason Peterman is getting a third chance. This is worse than Jauron’s lunch pale “high motor” strategy, when talentless Keith Ellison and Chris Kelsay we’re propped up because they “came to work hard.” At least Rex and Marrone understood that talent wins out over congeniality.
