You haven't missed much.  

Yeah... I watched it for the first time ever this year... My sister-in-law gave me the login for her company's HBO GO account. I was super pumped... kinda lost interest after 2 episodes. 

Kind of bummed out. Maybe it's just because I can't stand the Raiders.

It was better when it started 18 years ago, before the Internet was full of behind the scenes, inside scoops and constant tweet updates (much like everything, I suppose).

 

Now I watchlike “Wait I’m watching stuff from a WEEk ago?  What am I, a Luddite!?”

 

It’s still fun to see some the personalities, but if it ain’t the Bills, my interest is already fading...

It's the Jon Gruden show.  Last year there was so much drama with the Browns.   This year it's more like a bad sitcom.

There's one problem with Peterman that cannot be coached up or improved: he straight up doesn't have an NFL arm and struggles to do things like throw out passes with enough zip to avoid being picked off.

 

He doesn't belong on a NFL football field.  

 

He keeps getting chances b/c he is the kind of guy your typical "football guy" HC loves.

Peterman is a solid number 3 NFL quarterback. He is probably the perfect scout quarterback. Little salary. Very smart. 

 

While he does not have an NFL QB arm, he has an NFL QB mind.  Much of his failure in Buffalo had to do with a poor offensive line and poor receivers. People forget that Derek Anderson, who played 13 years in the NFL, looked just as bad as Peterman. Anderson threw 4 interceptions and 0 touchdowns while in Buffalo and didn't survive the season due to that line. Tom Brady would have struggled with the offensive line and receivers the Bills put on the field. It was arguably the worst offensive line/receivers combination any quarterback has ever played with. McCoy even struggled running the ball due to the line and receivers. 

 

Anyone who thinks they know more about quarterback evaluations than Jon Gruden is living in make believe world. The guy knows QB talent better than anyone in the game. If he thinks Peterman is an NFL quarterback  then Peterman is an NFL quarterback. I would not be surprised if Peterman lasts in the NFL as a backup for another 10 years.

He is statistically the worst QB to have ever played a regular season game... think about that in context... of all of the busts who have graced the gridiron he is statistically the worst... the stats jive with the eye test on this one.

Raiders claimed DeShone Kizer. Would be hilarious if they release Glennon instead of Peterman

 

...LMAO.......Kizer?......Glennon better call Mayflower ASAP......Peterman is Chuckie's "houseboy".....I believe the quote was, "best NFL ready QB I've seen in years"......right up there with Jaws saying, "Kaep has the ability to be one of the top 10 greatest QB's in NFL history".......Biden pales in comparison.......
