Senth Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 So you are saying if he sucks we gain in the draft ........ well I guess I'd survive.

I think he is somewhere in the middle. I'm thinking that it was still worth making the call because we know Tyrod isn't going to be able to handle when teams drop into coverage on him and he is just going to sit there and refuse to throw into small windows and will either take sacks or dump the ball off underneath. It's an unacceptable way to play QB in that situation... Unfortunately yeah. And im the youth leader of the CoT. Thats my dawg. Wish em well but this scheme doesnt work for him. Minimizes what he does good and emphasizes what hes terrible at. We keep it real at the CoT. We just wanna win tho. So win Bills. Just win.
Romie Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 I'll only be disappointed if he throws for less than 56 yards
Nitro Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 Against the second pass rush unit in the NFL and passing behind a banged up O line, I expect little from Peterman. If he flounders badly in the first half expect Taylor in the second if the game is close.

You don't switch the QB unless you think he gives you a better chance to win. McD doesn't believe Taylor can win vs this team and Lynn. He will know how to stop Taylor . I'm amazed the Lynn factor hasn't been mentioned more often. I think you're partly right, but I think you're overestimating it a bit. Lynn doesn't coach defense, and it's really up to John Pagano to stop the opposing offense. Lynn obviously knows Taylor, but that only goes so far. Moreover, a lot of other coaches "know" him pretty well at this point. Todd Bowles had faced him five times going into the Jets game. 11 minutes ago, Steptide said: I'd bet $100 this doesn't happen minus Peterman throwing 6 interceptions in the first 2 quarters The Bills desperately need to win this game.

How many will crown him after that 1 game? I will be hugely surprised....shocked to say the least and very very happy to see something like this........but still be very cautious onwards keeping my fingers crossed we solidify a WC spot
dave mcbride Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 (edited) I will say this about Peterman: the Pitt offense put up a crapload of points last year in essentially every game, and they played a lot of good competition. https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/schools/pittsburgh/2016-schedule.html They beat both Penn State (Rose Bowl participant) and national champ Clemson in shootouts, and they lost by a point in a shootout against Mitch Trubisky and UNC. Pitt's offensive output the year before was pretty impressive too. Why did he last until the fifth round? Edited November 17, 2017 by dave mcbride
cd1 Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 I hate to say this BUT I think we see the same kind of play calling from Dennison that we have all along. Hopefully, Peterman will connect with our receivers and that will allow some space at the LOS for Shady to get some nice runs. Dennison will STILL BE Dennison! Conservative and run the ball. Also: It is possible to Lose and not look like a loser. I hope we see a winner in Peterman even if we lose.

BananaB Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 We’ve been in the playoff hunt at this point in the season the past 3 years. I’m happy for the change and look forward to seeing what Peterman can do. I expect some struggles but I don’t think he’s gonna tank out there. Hopefully, his accuracy, decision making and anticipation is as advertised. It’s been a long time since we had a qb we could compliment on all 3 of these attributes or any of them for that matter. That’s what makes Peterman so intriguing to me.

frostbitmic Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 My reaction would be .... Lets see if NP learned anything after his 1st start and improves upon it in his 2nd start. I actually think he'll do ok Sunday. I don't expect him to set the world on fire but I don't expect him to suck either.
THEHARDTRUTH Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 He gets the next start. This isnt a one game audition
billspro Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 On to the draft. If we lose this game I don't see how we can make the playoffs. I will start watching games on some of the qb prospects.
