SaviorPeterman Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 Peterman was ranked as the 2nd overall rookie QB behind Patrick Mahones in preseason. And my sources in the scouting world maintain he's a steal where we drafted him and I've already posted many scouting reports and info on him that share similar thoughts. Yes it's still way too early to get giddy but the bottom line we've spent 2 1/2 years on a former 6th round draft pick that was brought here by the previous regime. Time to give a 5th round guy a shot who is this regimes guy.

Was the most nfl ready qb in the class according to experts. All you have to do is watch him play to know he's a better pocket Passer than Taylor. Is he the future? Who knows, but I'd take my chances the next 7 games. We also have 5 high draft picks in 2018. Zero risk and lots of reward My thoughts exactly.

I think he has plenty of arm strength. It's not like he's Brad Kaaya. I agree. The question is not whether Peterman is our franchise QB. The question is does he give us a better shot at winning than TT. The answer to that is yes.
Luka Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 7 minutes ago, Coach Tuesday said: Looked like some light pitch and catch against a prevent defense. Yay? Tyrod laid a real egg yesterday, something is wrong with him. His second and third throws to Benjamin were so bad that I wondered if a finger on his throwing hand was jammed or broken. I've never seen him look like that, he's generally an accurate QB. It couldn't have come at a worse time for his career - another game or two like that and he might not get another chance as a starting QB in this league. He's looked like that nearly every game of his career. These past two games have come down to him carrying the team, which a franchise QB has to do. He's not a franchise QB.
LABILLBACKER Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 2 hours ago, Woodman19 said: It's weird to see a QB drop back, make a read and then just throwing before there is any pressure. He doesn't require his wr's to be wide open. Finally a qb with the ability to " throw them open"...

I came away from this video very impressed. I know, I know. It’s garbage time, some of the Saints backups were on the field, they didn’t game plan for Peterman, etc. Say what you will, he makes good quick decisions and he is mostly accurate. His first drive would have kept going if Benjamin doesn’t drop the ball on 3rd down or if Dennison remembers you can pass the ball on 4th and short. His 2nd drive is an impressive looking TD drive where even the incompletion to Thompson shows promise (good pre-snap read and a quick throw that he just misses with Thompson getting mugged). I think Tyrod goes to a different team next season that is willing to design an offense around his skill set. If this is the offense we are going to run, Peterman seems to fit it better. If the pass game looks bad against the Chargers I don’t see any reason he shouldn’t get a shot. To the last point, if they lose to the chargers, the season officially becomes a rebuilding year. May as well play all the younger guys at that point, or at least the ones they intent to hang on to. 1

Tyrod has all the skill in the world, but zero pocket presence. Maybe he can't remember where the receivers are supposed to be. If the Bills want to win more games, they better put Peterman in. 5 but who's counting?

Steptide Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 Just adding some fuel to the fire. Don't tell me Peterman can be worse than Tyrod. I see alot of runs here 2
BuffaloBaumer Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 2 hours ago, teef said: not terrible. he looked the part, but as you mentioned, it's tough to really evaluate a qb in that scenario. It's not hard to evaluate at all, one qb knows how to throw a ball and the other one has been a piece of garbage for 3 years. Season is over if they lose to LA so if Bills are losing by 2 scores at halftime, Tyrod should NEVER see the field again. 1
C.Biscuit97 Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 I already see the future. Peterman will start 3 games, where he will have 200 yards and led us to about 17 points/ game. Then in a year where we have 2 1st rounders, which all offseason was thought to be a great QB draft so we could pass on Watson, we will talk ourselves into NP as a franchise guy. We will draft Sammy and Marcell’s Replacements and maybe pick a qb in the 6th round. then, NP will be revealed to be Trent Edwards part 2 and we wasted 3 years again while guys like Watson, Mahomes, Rosen, & Darnold turn into good starting nfl qbs. 1 1
dpberr Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 I think Tyrod gets the first half of the SD game. There's no excuses there. Full arsenal of weapons. If it's a tire fire yet again, I think there's a chance he's benched and Peterman gets a half to show what he can do. Buffalo has to be desperate to make the playoffs and willing to make bold moves to do it. It's going to crush the McDermott/Beane era starting off with so much promise and falling flat on your face in Year One.

Bray Wyatt Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 No reason to give Tyrod the shot against LA, this season can still be salvaged, the time to make a change is before the season is gone not after. Be proactive 1
CircleTheWagons99 Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 I think KB dropped the first pass from Peterman because he was SHOCKED it hit him right in the hands.......
BillsfanAZ Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 Even though the Saints had some back ups in the game, I liked Petermans placement. On the drop by Benjamin, that ball was perfectly placed over a defender to where only Benjamin can get it and it hit him in the hands. Peterman isnt afraid of squeezing it in there. The TD pass to Oleary, he wasnt wide open but open enough that Peterman put it in his belly. I dont see those balls from Taylor. Even when Taylor was scrambling, I can see open blue jerseys on TV. It seems that once Taylor has pressure, he always sees pressure. He stood in the pocket and took some hits while trying to throw the ball so I will give him that. I am so sick of see the pass to McCoy in the flat by the sideline and seeing Tayor throw it short of the sticks to the check down in the middle on 3rd down. I would rather see Taylor try to let his receivers make plays because they are punting either way if the pass is incomplete. I think Taylor over throws receivers at times just to get rid of the ball.
The Now Moment Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 Anyone else notice how many different receivers he threw to in his short stint? He hit a couple different wide receivers, hit his tight end a few times and utilized his running back but didn't drop it down to him too much. This was the perfect performance for Peterman. It could've only been better if he hit a bomb for a touchdown. In the preseason, he displayed a nice chemistry with Zay Jones as well. To me, the only part that makes this decision hard is Tyrod is the leader of this offense. We might not think so but he is highly regarded in the locker room. It's tough to displace someone who is a leader when we are still in the wild card hunt. But I think we need to do it. If he's better, he could lead us to the playoffs. If he's not, we will suck the rest of the year and know that QB is top priority. This coaching staff after 9 games knows what they have in Tyrod as QB. It's time to see their draft pick, Peterman. To me, he fits this sheme perfectly. Not asked to do too much but can still throw the ball with accuracy and get it out quickly. He also has the mobility to do a boot play or evade rushes with his feet. Let's see if Peterman can throw to the wide receivers. We all know Tyrod had a very difficult time with that. Peterman in this short little opportunity, granted in garbage time, showed exactly what we saw in the preseason. He's accurate and decisive. I think giving him some playing time now will help his development as I believe he is ready for his opportunity. Let's turn this high potential offense around 1

He's been sacked 9 times in the last 2 games Trust me, I’m not a huge TT guy. But he has 3 years of facing nfl defenses. NP has played against 3rd stringers and guy not in the nfl.
