Foreigner Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Nothing like learning from a lifetime under 50% QB, unless Anderson is learning from Peterman and Allen.

Foreigner Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 it is just so Billsy to be unprepared, but to take a guy out of football because he wasn't good enough and have to bring in him as the starter a week later. I'm not going to suggest he was working at Wegmans, but let us hope he doesn't pull a hamstring on the first series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight Hucklebuck Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) I agree. Following WGR there is a sense of excitement about Anderson starting, especially with Mike Schopp. And I think he has positive memories from the EJ Manuel switch to Kyle Orton. When you look at Anderson's career, this is not a Kyle Orton bump. He's older than Orton was and has one full year as the starter in his career, whereas Orton was the starter for 4 years. Following 2007, Anderson was ultimately benched and he never resurfaced again as a viable starting QB. Anderson is a career 54% passer with 60 TDs/60 Ints across 76 games. Now he gets off a beach towel to come in here Week 7 and play? It will be better than 82 yards, but it's probably 150 yards and an interception. And I'm sorry, but McDermott talking about how much Allen is going to learn from watching Anderson handle a walkthrough is insulting. Allen was a first round pick, who took Glenn, #12, #53 and #56 to get. He should be propped up like McDermott loves his ex-Carolina guys. This is not some great learning opportunity Coach. It's a debacle we're here, with all the familiar Billsy spin like "learning from a veteran" and "blessing in disguise". Doug Whaley said the exact same lines about EJ Manuel when he got benched 4 years ago. Edited October 18, 2018 by Straight Hucklebuck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Anderson's performance, overall, will not be very good, but actually better than what we have seen so far. This is a mess b/c we are going to lose a lot of boring games this year, but we won't have a franchise QB learning how to play along the way. We're just treading water now.

Couldn't play in the NFL, had a weaker arm that Nate Peterman. But, could teach the game. Now, I don't think it makes a hill a beans difference. You can either play or you can't. James Hardy was going to soak in all the knowledge he could from Terrell Owens, Ryan Mallett studied under Tom Brady, all the former Patriots Coaches who left Belichick and could not recreate the magic - Crennel, Mangini, Weiss, McDaniels.

This is another washed up ex-Panther that Beane and McDermott have brought in here. Today McDermott was talking about how Allen was going to learn how to conduct himself at a walkthrough. I just don't think it makes the slight bit of difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what your problem is? Not once did I say Allen was benched. Watching Derek Anderson play does next to nothing for Allen in my opinion. You either are good or you’re not. In general, my problem is the Bills have been so bad, for so long, the organization sells fans hype for run of the mill things, if not dysfunction. A guy who was retired on a family vacation is now a mentor to Josh Allen. Sorry McBeane, that’s not something to celebrate. And fans trip over themselves to constantly give praise and credit for no results. Three cheers for a career 54% passer with a 1:1 TD to Interception ratio.
