26CornerBlitz Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Is this Gamesmanship or is McDermott genuinely holding out hope that he plays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steptide Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Not a single practice all week and they'd start him Sunday? That seems crazy. I know Peterman isn't good, but you can cater the game plan to set him up to succeed (ie do not throw to the sidelines) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I think it shows a lot about Peterman. Holding out hope that a 35 year old, off the street with zero practice and only 3 weeks on the roster can somehow get cleared and go. I love it. I can’t stand the thought of Peterman playing. I just can’t understand how he’s still on this team. Yes this last injury made it harder to cut him THIS week...but he never should have still been here for us to be in this spot. I really hope Anderson can go. Thinking Peterman might play feels like when Tyrod was getting hurt and all we had was EJ. I didn’t even want the games to happen because I just knew we had no shot.

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 We've got too many QBs! See what Oakland will give us for one. Better yet, stick them each in an unmarked big paper bag, and raffle off to the highest bidder their choice of bag. 'Pays your money, takes your chances'. ?

Romie Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Please let Peterman finish the season, and lock down that #1 pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetermansRedemption Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 It honestly does not matter at all. Peterman is trash, Anderson is trash. It matters little. At least Peterman has a TD pass to go with all those turnovers. Anderson just has the turnovers. They are both probably the worst two QB’s currently on any NFL roster. If Peterman gives you a 1% chance of winning Anderson probably gives you a 1.05% chance. He doesn’t move the needle much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starrymessenger Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I have no interest in seeing Anderson vs the Bears. I don't think he should be playing, healthy or not - and I don't think he will play Sunday. His role should be like JMc in NY, mentoring the rook. He can't do that if he's playing.

They won’t win another game. Say what you will about McD, but his players play hard for him.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 If Peterman has to start, I would make sure Daboll calls less then 10 pass plays all game and I am all but telling Nate, if you don’t see it completely safe, do not throw it. I would not let this guy sink us again. I’d also have Barkley ready to go in as soon as the second interception happens. It’s not really a matter of if, it’s more of a matter when. I’d have as many creative ways to run the ball as humanly possible and not let Peterman throw another game away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eSJayDee Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I think the only reason he hasn't been declared out is he's probably a better option to serve as the backup. The Bills presumably think Anderson is a better option than Barkley (they were both on the street when they selected Anderson) and Anderson has 8 practices or whatever relative to Barkley's 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
