A very Belly move by Patricia

 

100 percent this. Even though Peterman sucks, he did understand the offense. This makes sense as a move for intel.

His only hope is a dome team or a nice weather team to really have any chance at all so this makes sense. He just doesn't have the arm to overcome.....well.....anything.

 

 

Most of his ints came in perfect weather.

The guy was a good guy. I wish him nothing but the best....

Hopefully if he signs with another team his pathetic receivers and coach won't let him down.

 

McDermott is an absolute clown for sticking Peterman out there against the best defenses. The receivers couldn't get open or catch (some drops turning into "INTs") in most of the games he played in. 

 

Peterman could've done good against a Jets defense that looked like crap but McDermott had to be a horses rear end and not give him a game against a team like that. No instead he throws him to the wolves against the #2 defense (Baltimore in the rain) and the #4 defense (Chicago) instead of the #18 defense (Jets). Jets D looked pathetic. He didn't even give the kid a chance to succeed.

The only game this year that Peterman started or even played in that wasn't dictated by outside circumstance was Baltimore. I suppose they could of cut Peterman and had McAaron or Allen start which considering Allen played better than him in the second half yes please. Other than that he ended up in due to other players injuries/not knowing the offense yet. Any move they could of made for Peterman to not be in those positions would of been moves that removed him from the roster.

Good luck Nate.

I dunno, his only win as a starter came in the blizzard game, and he was definitely the best QB on the field that day.

 

I don't know, Joe webb... he looked pretty, pretty good.

Not that at all, I found the Peterwhiners comment odd and I'm not really sure what it even means. That's what I called garbage

Matt Cassel.  If they're trying out Peterman it's for a practice squad spot and if he shows enough, letting him compete for a roster spot in 2019. 

 

Nah, couple posters up thread have it right.  If they're trying out Peterman, it's to sign him and pick his brains before they play the Bills.

This popped up on my recommended videos I can't tell if it's funny or serious.

He does, but it's such a bogus stat since so much happened after his departure including Joe Webb's miracle pass to Deonte Thompson.

 

And Joe Webb's almost game-losing INT?

Joe Webb's "miracle" pass was nice, but it only put us in better position, rather than directly putting points on the board like Peterman's TD pass! Ultimately it was LeSean McCoy who ran the last 30 yards in 2 plays for the TD that won the game.
 

But you know what,  with 1 minute left in the 4th quarter, Webb did throw an INT at our own 25 yard line to setup Adam Vinatieri for a game winning FG. The real miracle was Vinatieri missing!

 

I wouldn't call Peterman getting the W a "bogus stat' after playing for 3 quarters & being the best QB on the field in awful conditions, not turning the ball over, and not costing us the game. Webb nearly pulled a Peterman with his INT, but had Satan's luck on his side when the most clutch kicker in NFL history missed a FG to bail him out.

[ExiledInIllinois]

Just so I don't get accused of being hypocritical.  I hope Stafford can't go against Bills and Nate throws SIX picks in the first half.

 

Because... That's what is expected of him.  I will still feel bad because he can't be any better after working and praying his tail off.

 

I will hate on the guy that teases me more with close scores and what could be than the guy that's a complete failure.

 

Oh... And Patricia probably still has cheating Pats** ways... Only trying to pick Nate's brain for the playbook against Bills.

Oh jesus.  Can you stop with the best QB on the field crap like its some achievement.  The guy completed 5 passes.  It was a flukey game all around for both clubs because of the snow.

 

Also don't be a hypocrite. On the Peterman TD drive McCoy had runs of 23 yards and 25 yards.  Had McCoy not have had those two runs, the Bills would have just run out the clock and went into halftime.  Totally credit  Nate for making two good throws on the drive, but lets not make it sound like he was some amazing QB.  He wasn't and he never will be.

Correct, much like we did with Terrell Pryor and the Jets.  NP will be signed and then cut after the Bills-Lions game

I went to the Tennessee game earlier this year.  Petrino couldn't make it so he forwarded his seats & I went with one of his friends who I've been going to games with for years when we had 3 seats together.  I went to the opener in Baltimore & I'm done going to games this year.  When are you going to make it to one of our 518 lunches?  

I'm in the 518. When where is the next lunch?

Nothing good Nate ever did will be recognized by 26.  

 

Save your keystrokes. 

 

Joe Webb did nothing in the snow game. Zero. 

 

 

[Gettysburg]

Nathan Peterman should have been cut. He should now be placed on the practice squad. With a quarterback coming off an injury, and another dealing with a concussion, Peterman should be  running the opposition offense during practice.  You don't want Peterman to ever step on the field again but he is quite valuable for defensive preparation and is quite the good practice player.  He is well liked by the players and a high character guy. The players and fans just don't want him controlling the fate of their games.

Web was 5 yards shy of Peterman in 1/4 of football.  The game was an absolute disaster on the field (in terms of weather.)  Had the weather been decent the play on the field would have been much different all the way around. Lets not pretend that Peterman did much of anything either.  It's hard to acknowledge any good Peterman did when there is so little to acknowledge.  The dude is gone.  He was terrible.  Lets all move on.

The Jags have three QBs all who are better than Peterman.  Why would they sign him?

[zow2]

Maybe he can be a backup or 3rd string for the Colts.  Reich might appreciate him.

....hope the kid keeps on working at it and keeps on trying to fulfill his NFL dream.....needs to get over panic attacks with live ammo.....maybe someday....maybe not.....ditto for Taylor......two hard working guys chasing it.......

Nate will probably get a shot somewhere else. The Buffalo market has certainly soured on him and the coaches don't need the baggage of him on the roster or PS.  Baggage that has been exacerbated by national media piling on.  The best thing for him IMO would be to stay out of football until next spring.  Let some time lapse and work on his craft in the interim.  Time and new surroundings heal wounds and he's got some.  Better for the Bills to move beyond him. 

 

It's a QB starved league for even backups and 3rds.   Matt Barkley was laughed out of Chicago in a similar fashion in 2016/2017 after similar performances.  He stuck with it, got a couple chances and it appears he came back better for it, although 1 game is not a trend.

I don't know if he is very good, but nobody is going to get upset with anyone you put on a practice squad, as long as they stay there. If he is a great practice quarterback that can get the Bills defense prepared bring him in. If not, don't bring him in. Coaches should not make decisions based on what fans or national media think or say.
