Maine-iac Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 2 minutes ago, Boatdrinks said: You're wrong about that. Both Romo and Barber pointed out several times where Tyrod either had man coverage or had an open guy in soft spots in the zone. He wouldn't throw it and they said " you just have to throw the ball there". It's Taylor more than anything else. It's easy to stop the run when you have no fear of the QB even throwing the football. They may have been right on several occaisons. QB's will miss some throws and if there is a criticism of Taylor I get it's that he's too safe sometimes. I still say that Dennison does an awful job of getting guys open long before it is on Taylor. Peterman may well pull the trigger and have a little more success. We might also see the defense play well and Peterman throw three picks trying to be "agressive" and end up getting killed that way. If Dennison isn't capable of using the talent of his players I have no problem with the move to Peterman. It may well work to some extent. That said a different 0C would have this team scoring points and running the ball down other teams throats. We did it for two straight years. We know it can be done. If they are going to go "Rex" on the offense, might as well get started I suppose.

He has to say that. They're turning the page on the next chapter while trying to keep the optimism for the current season alive. Let's hope for the best. Edited November 15, 2017 by 26CornerBlitz

I don't think there's a Bills fan who actually studies football who actually thinks Dennison's offense is best suited for our players, but what we DO know is that Nate fits this system better than TT so for that reason alone, I'm excited to see the chains moving on offense once again. Also to people who think Nate might fail. So what? It's the MOVE itself we should be excited about, not the QB. We finally have a coach who isn't stubborn and isn't afraid to put himself in front of the media for making tough decisions. A person with less heart and more stubborn would of stuck with TT after throwing 56 yards. It's simply unacceptable and I respect McDermott for making the move. It sends a signal to the team saying, hey guys, this is your "job" and NOBODY is given anything. You gotta earn it. Yeah that's just about exactly how I feel. It's nice to see all that talk of accountability wasn't just coachspeak.
BringBackOrton Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Folks upset with this change don't understand Tyrod betrayed the whole reason he was out there. His supposed "high floor," which last week was UDFA rookie QB level. Anybody, including Peterman, can do what he did last week. So it's curtains.

This ought to be a fun day. I was losing all respect for McDermott. Shocked and thrilled he did the right thing to try and save the season. I was in the exact same boat. Much respect to McD on this move knowing the team needs a spark.
Augie Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 With our OLine you have two options: get it out quickly or be able to run away. I guess we’ve given up on running away.
Bills Fan of St Augustine Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 It really can't be much worse than the TT led offense we saw the last two weeks. Hopefully the line blocks for the kid and he has the chance to throw the ball downfield. I'm hoping he has a good day in CA.
Happy Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 1 minute ago, PastaJoe said: The Carolina Castoff Mafia must have pressured McD. Tolbert wants to catch passes downfield instead of dump offs. LOL. I can see Tolbert running a pattern next to Benjamin, but Benjamin continues the fly route while Tolbert breaks inside after 20 yards. A bit of an exaggeration, but using Tolbert as a RB2 is a terrible decision. They have to regret letting Gillislee go.

The Bills have failed miserably with that on offense and it’s shaping up to look the same on the other side of the ball. Yeah and they are also giving away a lot of downs on offense simply because of personnel decisions like mishandling the Gillislee situation and trading Watkins. I wasn't a big Bob Woods fan but given their time together he and Tyrod had a good connection going by late 2016 so he REALLY got a raw deal with regard to his weapons this season. Everyone knows Tyrod has limitations and McD really did a good job exposing them and making them a problem for himself when he could have had quite an offense to work with.

There's enough film on most players in the league to spot flaws and weaknesses...Saints had no problems figuring this out and Payton never coached Taylor
jkirchofer Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 One thing I like about Peterman is that he has been under one system and one coaching staff, and most importantly he is not Rex's guy or Marrone's guy....he is our guy. Win or lose, he is the way forward at OBD. 1
Da webster guy Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Dennison and Beane arent a good compliment to Tyrod. His strength was TE and short rb throws, read option and then three or four times a game he throws long to our fast guys. We dumped (or dont start) any fast WR's in exchange for taller dudes, so the long ball is gone from our offense. We won our early game from several 50 plus yard fg's, and the last two from insane turnover ratios. (Denver we won from a stupid call on Von). Now that we've stalled, and released Worthy and Dareus, there's only one shot to save the season, and thats above average qb play. I agree with the move but would still have Tyrod in for some read option or wildcat stuff.

Professional NFL defenses and coordinators eat the noodle arm rookie alive. Its possible that hes somewhere in-between, but I just don't think the guy has the arm for the NFL and that's why he sat til the late rounds like he did. If Peterman has a noodle arm then what does Deshaun Watson have? Peterman threw the ball 53 MPH at the combine, Watson threw it 49 MPH.
Maine-iac Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 You want to see our new offense ................. Just watch game tape of any 0rton start. Can't run and hope to score enough to eek out a win. Actually the team as a whole will probably eek out the same 9-7 type season.
CommonCents Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 2 minutes ago, billsfan11 said: That's exactly it. Here is an example. For my profession, I am a fitness professional who helps people with fat loss. Every single one of my clients is different, and if I did the same thing for one client as I did the other, it simply would not work. I have to have a different approach with every single person to get them towards their fat loss goals. In this example? Dennison refused to do what worked best for Tyrod, and he is just sticking with a "One size fits all" type of deal. That is terrible coaching. Maybe his offence works with a prototypical pocket passer, but that's not who Tyrod is. So until we find that person, he should have altered his stubborn approach What if they were looking beyond 17' and didn't want to cater to any players for short term gains in exchange for long term evaluations? From the roster shuffle and the way the season has played out I believe this very much too be the case.
87168 Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 i'm a TT fan, but i'm a bigger fan of rooting for a winning franchise and ending this drought. TT's last game was an eye opener. when you sign a player like Benjamin, you need a qb that will throw to him. ....or consistently throw in general.
