LeGOATski Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Just play Peterman the whole game It would be amazing to have all three QBs inured and the Bills start Wenning week one...
BuffaloBaumer Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Just play Peterman the whole game Yup, with the starting offensive line
26CornerBlitz Posted August 31, 2017 Author Posted August 31, 2017 Just play Peterman the whole game How does that make any sense at all? It would be amazing to have all three QBs inured and the Bills start Wenning week one... Wenning equals winning in week 1 which makes it a no brainer as in a non thinking idea.
billsfan60 Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 It's been a long time since there were reasons to watch the last game of the preseason.
BillsVet Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 It's been a long time since there were reasons to watch the last game of the preseason. What, watching Jordan Palmer, Ma(x)tt Leinart, and Vince Young wasn't your thing? I frankly can't wait for Keith Wenning and a 5th round over-hyped rookie. It's going to be great.

I frankly can't wait for Keith Wenning and a 5th round over-hyped rookie. It's going to be great. Your point is well taken. More concerned with the other 10 guys out there. And how McD handles the minor emergency at QB.
smuvtalker Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Since it's the last game of the preseason, and given the fact that both Tyrod and TJ have legitimate chances of BOTH sitting out, I would be inclined to let Peterman play the entire 1st quarter and then let him sit. I think if the Lions were playing their starters, I'd play him into the 2nd quarter, but we know they won't. Although I don't want to risk him getting hurt, I'd still like to get him as many significant live fire reps as possible to get him ready for the season opener.

Royale with Cheese Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Has Matt Simms thrown the ball backwards yet?

Andrew Son Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 There's a reason to watch this game? I'm sure you'll be glued to the screen looking for things to B word about
LeGOATski Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Welcome to #TheWenningEra Remember where you were.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Just play Peterman the whole game Yes. Let's do that. How McD handles the mess he is faced with tonight will tell us a lot about what we have in our coach. I'm curious what exactly you expect McD to do?
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 It's been a long time since there were reasons to watch the last game of the preseason. what will you be looking for? I see no real reason to waste 3 hrs on a meaningless game, the least of the four to even watch but I have never seen this wenning kid in any kind of live action so I may watch a few plays. 10 days
smuvtalker Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 How McD handles the mess he is faced with tonight will tell us a lot about what we have in our coach. I agree 100%.
CommonCents Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Yes. Let's do that. I'm curious what exactly you expect McD to do? I don't know what the right move to make is. Taylor and Yates are both in concussion protocol and as fans we don't know the progress each are making. Should he play Peterman and get him ready for week 1 if they are both projected to be out? Should he sit him if that's the case. It's an intresting decision and once we find out more about Taylor's status we can get a feel for the new coaches aggressiveness or lack there of. Certainly Peterman needs the snaps if he has any chance of playing week 1, but do you risk that in a meaningless preseason game.

No. He's gotten plenty of snaps and will have plenty of mental preparation before game 1. You only get 16 games. Each one is super important. Don't risk it.
eball Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 How McD handles the mess he is faced with tonight will tell us a lot about what we have in our coach. What exactly do you expect to see? If Peterman plays it will be because McD thinks he still needs some "live" work. Aside from that, I'm not sure what "mess" you're talking about. They can easily put Wenning into the game and hand it off every play, which allows them to evaluate the OL and backup RBs.
