You're right! Our problems begin and end with McBeane! They've created every reason why we suck that you mentioned.

I am, but I wandered away from the computer for a minute and I guess missed this! Give me some details. I'll listen for it once the show is recorded and available

There's a thread already created about how bad we are. But...In 1971, our point differential was -210, easily our worst in franchise history. At the halfway pole this year, we are leading the league with a -113. So we're on pace for worst point differential in franchise history. For example.

We're selling not buying.

I agree Peterman should not be on the team anymore, but what makes you think Anderson is "NFL quality" ? He's not. We've seen it now. And it makes a lot of sense. He was a middling talent when he was younger and now he's old and a year removed from his playing days. Only in Buffalo would this guy see the field in a starting role. To suggest he gives us a better chance to win than Colin Kaepernick, for example, is absurd. Not trying to make this about Keep but this team cannot start Anderson again IMO. If they do, you'll know they are truly tanking, i.e., deliberately creating a roster that, if it plays to the best of its ability, will consistently lose.

I was just commenting on that over in the "how historically bad is this team?" thread. LOL.

1971 is probably worse! .071 win percentage! -210 point differential! 21 TD scored (3rd fewest in league) QB Dennis Shaw threw 11 TD passes and led league with 26 INTs. Record: 1-13

Point differential is a pretty solid indicator of how good or bad a team is. Our worst season all time is 1971. We had a MINUS 210 point differential for the season. (14 games back then). Right now, we are handily worst in the league for 2018, with a differential of MINUS 113. Next worst team is Phoenix with -89.

I actually loved that and also thought it was hilarious. And I normally hate that sort of crap. They got it about right.

Not really!

Thank you. The organization isn't looking to round out Kyle's career with a gifted Superbowl win via trade. It doesn't work that way.

Don't feel it with Kyle, a little moreso Lorax. I think Shady will go and they will do the deal 10 minutes before the deadline trying to extract max value from Philly. I'm totally on board with a sell off.

That's a horrible take. The only thing good that come from the 2018 campaign is for Allen to play all the time, see tons of stuff, and, in theory, improve. These games without him playing really hurt b/c it's all just a huge waste of time. We are slowly securing a great draft slot for next year though. So there's that.

I disagree; Peterman is a much more proficient passer than Anderson. He's more proficient than Allen too. But then you have the INT issue....which does change the equation, and it doesn't seem to be improving.

Right? That should be pretty obvious. He's padding his career earnings with a little extra cash he never thought he would see. Smart move, as long as he isn't seriously injured or disabled in some way.

Best option for this team, if they actually cared about winning now, would be to sign Colin Kaepernick. He's by far the best player out there. He will NOT be signed.

Whose winning 13-12 with a strong defense anyway? Our D played lights out tonight. Without a potent scoring offense, you have nothing.

You write a 10 section novella and nothing about the QB? The story of this game and why we lost is that we don't have a QB on the roster, and that's not going to change any time soon.

To the OP: No, you have that wrong.

The obvious way to immediately make the team better at QB is to sign Colin Kaepernick. He's by far the best option out there and he would be, by far, the best QB on this roster, including Allen. It won't happen.

Anderson has demonstrated to my satisfaction that he can't play QB at this stage in his life. Not at the level he needs to. He doesn't rise to the minimum threshold. We need a new plan at QB anyway.

I think he's actually much better than Anderson, but if he's going to continue to throw picks, you may have a point.

Apparently Anderson was injured late in the game. Maybe we'll hear more at the MCD PC.

He's worse! Probably doesn't throw the same # of picks, but Peterman moves the ball on offense better than any QB we currently have, including Allen.

Mark Kelso post-game: "The Bills gotta find some rhythm offensively." Made me laugh out loud just now!
