Tyrod still may see the field coming off the bench. Can't be mentally undone by this. But ya also can't keep checking down on 3rd and 13, 3rd and 20, etc..

I'd like to believe that McD is putting the best players out there and is not overly Loyal to anyone. Speaking of loyalty, I'd like to see Tolbert have a much more limited role and use an RB2 who is actually fast.

Better hope Peterman has a football IQ through the roof! LA will be throwing all sorts of packages at him. He will have about 2 seconds to break it all down in his head. We should be doing the same on D if LA plays their backup QB.

So funny to hear some of the National media. They hate the move because of the timing. They other reason they hate the move is because no one has ever heard of Nate Peterman and he doesn't inspire confidence. Seriously? Did anyone really know Dak Prescott? How does anyone know much about any QB until they start playing. One good thing about starting him now is the week right after a historically bad QB performance by Tyrod. He won't look worse than that. He may not light it up but he won't be worse, lol.

It's plain and simple. Teams are now keeping Tyrod in the pocket about 95% of the time. Tyrod is not a good pocket passer. Nathan is a good pocket passer. Done deal. I give McD huge props for doing the right thing, now, before the season is officially in exhibition mode. I also like the idea of Tyrod coming off the bench if something happens to Nate. He's probably more effective off the bench and less pressure.

Broncos have wayy more talent than we do. Dont know enough about the other teams tho. This team lacks talent and has been over achieving all season. They were supposed to tank remember. Some balls bounced our way and we ended up 5-2. At 5-4 we have a solid shot at hitting a WC at 9-7, unless the OC and DC undermine the team for better draft positioning by putting out terrible game plans that dont fit the roster. Thats too much of a tinfoil hat thought for me to buy into tho. We just arent that good on the talent side, pur OC is pulling a reverse Rex Ryan, and we still might luck into or out of a WC spot.
Well let’s be real. Our Bills don’t luck out into anything so they won’t luck into a WC berth. They did get their share of luck getting to 5-2 but as usual that was smoke n mirrors

Just my opinion, but i don't think any of these teams have a terrible defense. Yet all have been getting gashed lately for yards and points against. I feel like this is directly attributable to the offenses not carrying their weight. just giving up possessions way too easily...either through 3 and outs or turnovers. Every possession in an NFL game is critical. There aren't that many compared to college football. Even if the team is not scoring they need to flip the field into a favorable position. Defense obviously has to do their part too, and Buffalo was not winning that Saints game no matter if the D only gave up 20 points. But man, offenses are just killing these 3 teams and it demoralizes the D, tires them out and gives motivation to the opponents who feel a surge of confidence when their opposition can't move effectively or score much.

Atlanta lost to Buffalo and Miami, AT HOME! That's the main thing I'm grasping onto at this point. The fact that most teams have peaks and valleys but level out at some point. Just hoping we are through the worst valley and can finish the season on an upswing.
-
We finally found a season where the Bills actually beat the Broncos and Raiders..plus a solid Falcons team. The Chargers are certainly not special. The Dolphins and Jets are no threat for the playoffs....The Ravens, Bengals are crap, the Texans got unlucky w/ injuries and Indy stinks....
The AFC really comes down to NE, KC, Pitt and the Jags. Everyone else is mediocre to garbage. Amazing if the Bills still can't sneak in to this postseason tournament after 5-2. What a way to piss away a good start.
-
Two more losses to play with my friends. Gotta get to 10-6 somehow. I don't think 9-7 gets it done. So they can't lose to the LA Chargers. In my opinion, at best they will split with NE and Miami so there's your other 2 losses.
-
Lol, a lot of us will probably be dead in 7 years. I'd like to win now please.

I don't think it's a bad thing. He's the captain of the ship so he needs to lead by example. I mean you see other coaches like Adam Gase or McAdoo express some emotion and it hasn't done anything to make their teams win more.
At some point though, maybe if they get steamrolled again I'd like to see McDermott consider spreading the healthy scratches around. I don't think any player wants that on his resume,...knowing he was scratched and not dinged up. I'm sure that stuff gets around league circles in a hurry. I don't see a fire getting lit under these guys. After the Jets game i thought they'd come out and be raving lunatics at home. And they knew the Saints were running and couldn't stop it. They also could not run or pass. I'd like to see some urgency.

The year Kelvin Benjamin was injured Carolina made the Super Bowl. The first game they trade him, they score 45 even with a bunch of drops. The Bills first game with KB, they have no offense whatsoever. Ugh. So Billsy
-
The Saints yesterday showed they are exactly the type of team I hope the Bills can become someday under this McD/Beane era. They can run the ball down your throat, smash-mouth O-line, and can certainly pass effectively anytime they want to. In addition they play stout defense. What's not to like?!? I suspect the Saints are not quite as dominant and the Bills not quite as inept as we saw yesterday....but it was a far enough gap that even if Buffalo played their A game, we still would've lost by 17 easily. I feel like the Bills got complacent knowing it was on their home field. Like they just needed to show up and they'd play better. WRONG.

This particular index is not really for the "eye test" like other power rankings. It's a predictor and incorporates other factors like injuries, upcoming schedule, distance to travel, home/road, which team has more rest etc.. (in addition to the past week's performance & stats).
I guess if we beat the Chargers in LA this weekend it will be an upset. Who would've thought that a couple weeks ago?

Ive been seeing this type of comment a lot on the board. How do we know if he's good or not? Let him play! We might have the next Brady? Who knows. But it would be typical Bills to not have a plan for him.
I agree. not saying to start him this week but a lot of people on this board have dismissed Peterman as being the next starter. Like it's automatic the Bills will select a QB in 2018 round #1 and that QB will immediately supplant Peterman.
If the season slips away (and it's plummetting like a rock in the ocean right now)...then give Peterman some starts towards the end and see if he can move the offense in something other than garbage time.

Let that sink in for a minute.. just a couple weeks ago Buffalo was around 10th with the likes of the Rams, Falcons, Jags and Vikes. Now they are sharing the neighborhood of the Bears, Bengals, Phins and Cardinals....and still plummeting. I'm not even sure how to gauge this? I get how it happened to Houston (losing Deshaun Watson). But losing Dareus is not the reason this team is imploding. The big guys on both sides of the ball are getting completely dominated these last two weeks. We have McCoy running the ball and no one else behind him. That is just a huge gap when you have Tolbert in there catching swing passes. Taylor, who i like, is just not making quick decisions and you can see it's not in his nature to throw contested balls to WR's. Even i can admit, Peterman looks more mature than his years. From the pocket he makes the quick release into a window and looks pretty accurate.
The defense is an abomination. If the turnover differential wasn't this high this club would be around 2-7.

Last years offense was way better than this years. I think McD is safe for 3 years. He will, however, have to fire a coordinator or two along the way. I was stunned the way the Saints mandhandled Buf on both sides of the ball. I excused the Jets game but this was inexcusable at home. I think McD was in shock during his post game presser. I agree it appeared the team quit when the Saints went up 24-3. You could see defenders just waltzing around out there

Funny when both the Bills and Rams were 5-2 they were darlings of NFL sports talk. Since then the Rams have exploded and continue to impress, while the Bills...just turn into the Bills. We can’t have nice things.

Eh, take the beating and let’s move on. Bills fans have a horrible reputation. Glad no one did anything stupid that will looped on viral videos all week on Barstool Sports.
-
Would not start Peterman on the road. If/when he does start it should be a home game. Cadence and all of that, one less thing to worry about
-
I’m kinda in awe of the Saints. To come in our environment and do that to what I thought was a relatively decent Bills teams. That’s just nuts. They administered the worst home loss I’ve ever seen. Maybe the 2007 prime time loss to New England was as bad, but I think that Bills team was worse. Not sure.
-
Dareus didn’t even play half the time. Either injured or suspended. All I know is someone needs to be fired on Monday. Probably Dennison. And this McD /Frazier defense has officially been exposed and needs to be retooled o
We've got about 4 weeks before DC's can effectively gameplan for Peterman...

BUT, if Peterman has a special quality to him, they won't be able to shut him down entirely. He will still be effective even after DC's get film on him. If he turns out to be another Tom Savage...then yes, he will get shut down fairly quickly and QB1 will be drafted in April 2018.
