Buffalo Boy

While I don’t fully agree, your point has some merit. Agree to disagree. He’s not a QB. Today was yet another reminder of this fact. Eyes closing. Goodnight Gentlemen ?

My wife wanted to turn it off but I wouldn’t let her as I had a sneaking hunch this might be the game Peterman got some reps. I admit I wasn’t actively watching the last 20 minutes until he came in. It was brutal:(

Like TT? Not much promise left to see in that one. Chargers are the only winnable game currently, IMO

Said it in the Game thread. All remaining opponents Defensive plans will do likewise. He HATES the pocket.

Exactly my thoughts also.

I get that Saints won this game a few quarters before Peterman even entered the game but they were still playing. His first couple passes were good. A first down on an out and a dump off over the middle for nine. He muffed the third pass on what looked like a miscommunication with O’ Leary. His fourth pass was a perfect, just missing the defender, hit his hands pass to K.Benj for a first.... which he dropped. KB does that from time to time.( Which is one reason I wasn’t excited about the pickup.) Fourth down play he handles a low snap adeptly and gets the pitch out to the back who gets stuffed. First drive/ 5 Plays/ 2 of 4 / 1 drop, 1 miss Next drive First pass / Dump off which would have netted 6 yards but results in a 15 yarder for Unnecessary Roughness. Because the Saints quit??? Second pass/ Beauty to K.Benj that hits him in stride. 21 yards. Draws accolades from announcer as best pass of the day BECAUSE it traveled more than 10(!?) yards through the air and was thrown after reading the field and finding the open man. Third pass/ 12 yarder to K. Benj with DB on him as ball gets there. TT doesn’t take that chance. Fourth pass/ Peterman recognizes man coverage on Thompson, looks off the safety to the left and slings it right, overthrowing him by 1 step. The Rookie reads the D Pre snap and knows to play off the safety with his eyes!!! Fifth pass/ he gets it out over a D lineman’s hands and hits Matthews as the DB just stops and sits watching the backfield, allowing Matthews to get open. Pass hits Matthews at the 13 and allows him to get to the six because it’s not thrown too close to the sideline like a certain someone( who has great stats because he doesn’t take chances which forces his receivers out after the catch) The ball is out before the receiver is finishing his break or has turned his head. Anticipation!!!! Sixth pass/ Peterman stands in as left side of picket is collapsing behind him, allows O’Leary time to clear the LB and Safety on a slot route, rolls that way and hits O’ Leary the only place he could. TD. O’ Leary’s First TD. The Saints were playing good D and these guys weren’t running free by any means. The most open was K.Benj on the 21 yarder when he got into a hole in the zone. A throw TT doesn’t see or make. You want your TT. You can keep your TT. This garbage about mailing it in or Garbage Time scoring is pathetic!!! The only real QB on this team came in and showed why he is the guy who should be starting. Does he win this game? Probably not. But, the Defense should actually get some rest and the score should most likely be less lopsided. Remember back when Cassel, EJ and TT were fighting for the starting position and TT clearly caused the O to have a spark. I was an EJ guy but even I admitted they looked better under TT. This is exactly the same. If you still have to make excuses about the D sucking, or O line sucking, or play calling sucking, or Saints gifting it to us etc. please give it up. Finally, I’m not calling Peterman, Montana or Brady but I am calling him competent. He was billed as the most NFL ready coming out of the draft for a reason. TT is NOT, nor EVER will be a competent starting QB in the NFL.

This!!!! All day!!!! What does the “ Most NFL ready QB from the 2017 draft.” have to do? TT is not getting it done. Peterman made throws today that TT doesn’t make. He drops, sets, throws. With accuracy.

An that COTers is what a QB does!

Cue the TT apologists!!!

Ahhhhhh( Sound of Angels) a QB who can THROW!!!!

Peterman!!! efffing FINALLY

Why go for 15 on 3/15? 10 and a punt will do!!!

??????

Sorry to point it out but the Saints are a top 3 NFC team

“Keep him in the pocket and make him pass.” Every opponents defensive game plan the rest of the year....... because TT is the QB?

They doused him with beer???

If we only had a QB ......

Hopefully the weather , wind and field conditions will hold their O back. kinda feels like a loss though?

Random memory: Does anyone remember during the Knox/ Ferguson years; a fan threw a roll of TP on the field. A thirty foot strand of it got on the whole D line, then when they got out of it the O line got into it, just blowing down the field. They had to stop the clock

My Dad and I left and heard the roar of the crowd from the lot. It was his birthday. Will always remember that day.

My buddy stole a Burke or Chase ( can’t remember which) security guys hat off his head as they were keeping the fans from rushing the field afterwards. It was a rainy, warm January day.

You are correct. They say the mind is the first thing to go....

Too many !!!!! But one I haven’t shared was the ‘91 Steelers game when Kelly threw 4 first half picks. My buddy Joe and I had season tickets in the tunnel EZ. Two Steelers fans were in front of us just being Jackwagons. Taunting us with” How many picks was that ? Two picks!!!” Etc Then Kelly started throwing TDs. 6 total. They left in the early fourth as we kept taunting them, “ How many TDs was that? 3 TDs.” Etc

Moved to Charlotte in 98. My buddy Tim told me about it sometime around 2000. i don’t think I actually signed up for another ten years but checked it most days for the articles.

I called him out for the douche he was a couple years back. Doesnt seem to me to be a McD kinda guy long term.
