transplantbillsfan Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 He should definitely be our #2. God, Yates is a dumpster fire! Peterman reminds me of Fitz, though his arm might be weaker than The Beard.
LeGOATski Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Just watched Peterman's snaps. Besides the hurried throws and inaccuracy at times, he made some great decisions. Displayed good instincts. Showed a good sense of urgency at the end. I wonder if they give him some 2nd team reps.
Pbomb Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 I did, and I looked past the typical rosey eyed glasses Bills fans normal take on things. He did "some" things well, others, really important things he did not, and against 3rd string players. Tim- also playing with 3rd stringers himself. Key dropped passes, oline cant block for nothing. It goes both ways, the people your playing against might suck but so do your people.I liked the fact he actually threw the ball down field and to wrs, not just to the los
CountryCletus Posted August 11, 2017 Author Posted August 11, 2017 No. Peterman is a poor mans Jeff Tuel. Wow- that's a low blow, hahahaha
CountDorkula Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Wow- that's a low blow, hahahaha I'm trying really hard not to hate this kid, but he has been no better than Yates in practice. And now he should be the starter? I hate TJ Yates too, mostly because he is terrible.

DriveFor1Outta5 Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Just watched Peterman's snaps. Besides the hurried throws and inaccuracy at times, he made some great decisions. Displayed good instincts. Showed a good sense of urgency at the end. I wonder if they give him some 2nd team reps. He looked good. Probably as good as one could expect from a fifth round rookie. My biggest concern was his inability to step up and to move laterally from the pocket. Our O Line was terrible the entire evening, but Peterman got chased back far too often. Regardless of the O Line, a QB can't consistently get chased back forcing him to wildly throw the ball away.
Doc Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 I think most everyone is in agreement that NP should be the #2 because he's a rookie. Yates is bad and is what he is. If NP looks good with the 2nd team, then maybe you give him some time with the ones, but that remains to be seen.
Royale with Cheese Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 No. Peterman is a poor mans Jeff Tuel. How is a 5th round rookie a poor man to an UDFA who is not in the NFL?
CountDorkula Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) How is a 5th round rookie a poor man to an UDFA who is not in the NFL? Both aren't very good??? Here are two stat lines. One of those is Nathan Peterman, the other is _____ 13 25 52.0 25.0 112 4.5 112.0 1 10 14 71.4 14.0 110 7.9 110.0 1 Edited August 11, 2017 by CountDorkula
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Dak got thrown to the wolves in Dallas so yes I'd be all in favor of watching a rookie in Peterman over Tyrod running around and not winning. With Peterman we don't know what is possible but with Tyrod its already over. it's not over for TT yet so you'll have to watch or don't watch if you're not in favor but he's the starter, like it or not. the only way I see the new savior peterman on the field in a meaningful game, not a preseason scrimmage against third stringers, is if TT goes down with an injury, which is a real possibility? every off season some fans call for the back up/third stringer to start, every year. being in favor of throwing him to the wolves is one thing, as it would be just that but he doesn't belong in the same sentence as prescott. nate is no dak, not by a long shot. if taylor goes down, and he likely will, the season is a wash because the two behind him will never carry this team to many, if any wins. I do believe they should cut yates, find another scrub and move the kid to back up though, yates is/was terrible.

87168 Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Both aren't very good??? Here are two stat lines. One of those is Nathan Peterman, the other is _____ 13 25 52.0 25.0 112 4.5 112.0 1 10 14 71.4 14.0 110 7.9 110.0 1 one of them is a rookie, 23 yrs of age, and just played their first game in the NFL. meanwhile, being the only qb to throw a TD last night. your "hate" (your word not mine), is completely irrational and shortsighted. he out performed Yates. period. and again, who mentioned he should be starter?
Cripple Creek Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 It was definitely scrub time when he tore it up. Let's see how he does against the second teamers before getting too excited. He will also be playing with better players on his side of the ball. Doesn't just go one way as you are implying.
CountDorkula Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 one of them is a rookie, 23 yrs of age, and just played their first game in the NFL. meanwhile, being the only qb to throw a TD last night. your "hate" (your word not mine), is completely irrational and shortsighted. he out performed Yates. period. and again, who mentioned he should be starter? So because Yates was terrible, means Peterman needs to "get time with the ones"
HappyDays Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Both aren't very good??? Here are two stat lines. One of those is Nathan Peterman, the other is _____ 13 25 52.0 25.0 112 4.5 112.0 1 10 14 71.4 14.0 110 7.9 110.0 1 It's preseason. Stat lines mean nothing.
CountDorkula Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 It's preseason. Stat lines mean nothing. Not according to the above. But proving my point even Further. Nassib and Peterman were identical. I dont see anyone calling for us to trade for Him to play with the ones.

I dont see anyone calling for us to trade for Him to play with the ones. How did I prove your point further? I haven't watched Nassib and I don't care to. I saw Peterman make quick decisive throws, ball placement was a little spotty at times but nothing that made me wince. Defensive pressure was all over and him and he stayed composed. The TD pass was a beauty. I think all of that is more important than his final stat line in a quarter and a half of play with 2nd and 3rd stringers.

Also, Peterman is a final product now after one preseason game?
