zow2 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Man, I'm still trying to shake off the fact that this is the same Derek Anderson who was Cleveland's QB (in 2009?) when they beat the Bills 6-3. That game was coined as possibly the worst NFL game ever played. Anderson completed 2 passes for 23 yards. I remember watching it. Every single play. Hoping to see a decent version of DA going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has incredibly mediocre play leading to the same games as we have been watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 As bad as QB passing has been in Buffalo for so long we'll probably fall in love with this guy if he throws the ball on time from the pocket for 220 yards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I don't expect DA to finish the game. There's no way he can be up to speed with the playbook, and reading defenses ? Oh please.

billsfan_34 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) Some time back, certain posters thought it was a wonderful idea to go into the season with 2 QBs- unproven ones at that. I argued (respectfully) that 3 QBs were needed. When 1 gets injured then you are down to 1 with no backup. Anyways, look where we are now- in a QB driven league the Bills are kickin the tires on Derek Anderson, a career journeyman who has been on the street for 2 years. This regime has grossly screwed up the QB position- the very most important position in the NFL. Edited October 17, 2018 by billsfan_34 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dollars 2 donuts Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) Someone better inform Anderson that the hot pocket he will be facing on Sunday isn't the same one he's had while binge watching Ozark on his couch over summer.

dgrochester55 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Anderson is by no means great, but Peterman could not be out there again. The Colts are not good either, and the game is winnable. If the defense can play like they have been, I think Anderson is a good enough game manager to eek out a win here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st pete gogolak Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I'm usually in the "he (or it) can't be any worse" camp but this time I'm not so sure. As much as Peterman is not an NFL-caliber quarterback, Anderson has essentially not played in the NFL for two years, joined the Bills about 10 days ago, and even when he was "good", that was back in 2008-2009. The one year he was really good, Cleveland beat the Bills in Cleveland in a snow game and he looked meh and the next year was the infamous 6-3 game (aka "the worst football game ever played") and he was 2-17 for 23 yards. 2-17!! I'm thinking it's going to look like Matt Leinart in the preseason game a couple of seasons back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, let's have a battle between 2 non NFL QB's to see who plays the next month or so. This is great. Considering he has yet to offer or say he is willing to sign for backup type money..... We have little to no cap room at the moment, we have a great cap situation after this season. Why ruin that for ANOTHER "non-NFL qb" to play for the next month or so. Great. Again this guy lost his job to Blaine Gabbert BEFORE any protest, and was on a downward trend in all categories every year once defenses figured him out and the read-option is much less effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 The last time Anderson played, NFL rules were pretty different from where they are now. He might find the modern passing game a little bit easier than what he's used to. I don't know, just a thought I had. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
