Alot of what the national media said is the same as what they always say/do. One guy thinks it's a bad move, the next guy thinks it's a great move blah blah. It's almost like they just script who's gonna argue one way and who will argue the other way.
Because their is some coach out there that will see his td to interception ratio and think they can make him a great qb. And for his sake, I hope they can.
This whole situation reminds me of when the cowboys benched Bledsoe for Romo. A veteran who had already reached his potential and a guy who'd never started a game. I realize comparing Bledsoe to Tyrod and Peterman to Romo is apples and oranges, but it just reminds me of that. Cowboys wernt out of the playoffs at that point either
I'm gonna be overly optimistic and say 275 with two tds and 1 interception.
I realize this is a bit unrealistic, but also think he will take some deep shots and connect, which will pad his numbers a bit.
Benching Tyrod has zero effect on Mccoy, unless he's mad that he won't be getting the check down throws. Mccoy can still run down a teams throat regardless of who's handing him the ball
I've been reading alot on social media since it was announced that Peterman will start. Half the people are super excited and the other half think the bills are tanking
I said on Monday that listening to McDermott's press conference infuriated me. Lots of the "we believe in our guys" type answers. But we may finally have a coach who isn't just settling for mediocrity. We've done this song and dance for so long. I absolutely love that the change was made. We are trying to save this season
This is the perfect game to start him. We're playing a 3-6 team in a stadium that holds 25000 people. This is as perfect a time for Peterman as it gets
I get that, but can he at least sound a little concerned? Your team played horrendous 2 weeks in a row and one of them you had 10 days prep. Don't act like you're just gonna watch tape and fix things.
Honestly, watching McDermott's press conference yesterday infuriated me. The prototypical coach answers like "we believe in him" and "were confident in our guys" blah blah. You know you sound like every other coach that's been here the last 17 years?? Can you please for the love of the fans act like you're concerned about these last 2 weeks? Can you please act like this team has looked as opposed to the most flat answers you can possibly give.
I could be wrong about this, but I don't think I've seen Peterman throw a single check down between pre season and the saints game. How can you even compare the two?
