Because my conclusion doesn’t agree with yours I must not be informed? The All-22 shows some good here and there but the vast majority isn’t good. Where have I said QB is the only issue on offense? Do you just ignore things that I actually say so you can put words in my mouth and argue a point I never made? You linked his progress to production by the offense. By omitting the other factors you imply he is the sole problem for the offense. And I doubt you watched every play in detail, because you would not say his progress leads him to just throw interceptions. His accuracy continues to improve as shown in the Texans game.

ngbills Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Funny how if Anderson plays like Tyrod or just a little worse so many would be happy with that. 1 hour ago, Rebel101 said: He hasn’t been a complete failure? He has led the team to the worst offense seen throughout the league in years. 2018 teams are averaging 30 points a game. Josh Allen I believe has thrown 2 TDs. He is young and hopefully will get a lot better in years to come but so far he has been a failure and has proven he shouldn’t have even been named a starting NFL QB so early. Prove me otherwise Many teams are breaking offensive records - in the good way. The bills are doing the opposite - breaking records in the wrong way. Should not be happening in this nfl, the rule changes, etc. Its an offense driven league and we stink. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt those 7 incompletions on Sunday would have instead been perfectly placed into the arms of our great wide receivers if only they had come from the fingertips of The Legend Of Derek Anderson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Anderson will be playing behind the same set of turnstyles that Allen did, which many pundits claim is the worst o-line in the league. When Anderson throws the ball he'll be throwing to the same group of receivers, minus Foster, who routinely drop balls that hit them in the hands. And for the trifecta, Anderson will have the same stale play calling from Daboll that Allen and Peterman had. Before the season started I predicted we'd have 6 different QB's start games for us. This is week 7 and we're on QB #3 already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to say he’s making progress because he’s getting rid of the ball quicker. Fine. I can agree to a degree. But if the offense is still really bad and that progress isn’t leading to anything positive then what are we really talking about here? Grtting rid of of the ball quicker isn’t always a good thing. Especially when you factor in his poor pocket presence and habit of bailing from clean pockets. 3 minutes ago, oldmanfan said: By omitting the other factors you imply he is the sole problem for the offense. No, that’s not what I’m implying. But I guess that fits your narrative. 3 minutes ago, oldmanfan said: And I doubt you watched every play in detail, because you would not say his progress leads him to just throw interceptions. That isnt even even what I said. Pay attention. And again, you can doubt it all you want because it fits your agenda. 3 minutes ago, oldmanfan said: His accuracy continues to improve as shown in the Texans game. Keep grasping.

Maybe a slight increase in offensive production but not much. And who knows if he will be a turnover machine or not. Hope he exceeds my expectations. Derek Anderson is a interception waiting to happen and if he struggles the colts could have 5 ints in this game. Piss poor management to expect Peterman to be the starter or backup to Allen but give them kudos to the defensive side of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuckyBoys Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 My prediction is he really struggles and they rush to get Allen ready . Best case we win with defense and not asking Anderson to do much and give Allen a few weeks to get 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flmike Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Just stop. You are only setting yourself up for a letdown. Anderson had no preseason with this team and he's approaching Brady age. We all know how this will end. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSHMEAB Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 It bothers me way more than it should when someone says a QB is a good "scrambler." It's football, not Denny's for heaven's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I get why so many are hyped about the defense. They are playing really good ball. But this is a much different QB as compared to Watson and Mariota. Luck will step up in the pocket and sling it accurately, he's not trying to buy time and run around, and turn himself into sacks. I think the Bills will need 26+ points to beat Indy and I don't think they will get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh can learn by watching which was the original plan except Nathan Peterman f'ed that up. Luckily for Anderson, the bar for "signs of life" with this offense has been set at a level that even Tryion Lannister cannot limbo under. This offense is in a vegetative state as far as signs of life go and if Anderson can just get it to grow moss on its north side, he will have succeeded. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 1 hour ago, oldmanfan said: Good God. I talk about this a lot, but you actually are another one with the inability to read. Where exactly have I said he's been good this year? Answer: nowhere. He looked awful against the Pack, but you can see progress since. he's getting the ball out quicker, last week he was more accurate. It does not mean he's good yet, or that he's played well so far. We should be talking about his future, because he is a rookie QB drafted to be the future. This is how this started. I said he played awful in the all 22s. You said, no he hasn’t, he looked better vs the Texans. I said, he improved over awful, but overall, he’s been awful. You say I don’t read. He’s been awful this year. Did he look better vs the Texans? Maybe, I haven’t watched the all 22 yet. But....,as my OG statement rests, he’s been awful this year. If you don’t think so. Good for you. You’re most likely just being a homer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you allow them a fighting chance against the Jets (I wouldn't at this point but it's the most likely), Derek Anderson is never going to develop a "hot hand" against the Pats, the Bears, and the Jags. Not happening. Brock had a hot hand against the Bears. The Bears can't handle average to below average offenses apparently.! 1 minute ago, Boca BIlls said: If they win games it will show we need to draft another QB Agreed. draft another QB. Keep Anderson, Rookie and Allen. Or get Teddy B, Rookie and Allen, which is what I would like anyway because it appears we will only get a small sample-size of Allen this year. 5 minutes ago, K-9 said: Strike up the band!
