Well when you're about to commit a whole lot of the franchise's future to one position, you should probably know what you've got. A career backup pretending to be a starter and a rookie that, after that performance, is probably more work than he's even worth as a backup. If he executes the offense like the coaching staff thought he could, that's probably a close game even with a couple of those picks. And it's not all bad, you may have lit a fire under Tyrod and he makes himself a more attractive bargaining chip in the offseason. But after today it's safe to say the QB position will be completely different come training camp.

That may have rattled Peterman, and then the next 2 Ints were in the OL. I think the second was def on Peterman back foot prayer. The first and third was not on him. he earned the 4th. wouls have been a great throw had it not been for thr int... the 5th was I dont wanna play anymore. He earned 3 ints.

I agree with that, though I viewed this as more just a chance to win one football game with Tyrod struggling and likely to be contained with Lynns insight into his deficiencies . Especially when McDermott was non commital about the switch being a long term move. It could light a fire under Taylor and the Chiefs continued their free fall today. Maybe he can be a QB and win a game @ KC where I wouldn't even consider starting a rook QB unless injury forced the move.

The colour guys said that the pick on the Thompson looked like a miscommunication. WR cut to the outside. Ball was to the inside.

I never thought it was about just one game, I felt like even if we lost today and Peterman was kinda iffy we'd stick with him the rest of the year to give him a fair shot. But not now. I think they've got the answers they were looking for. Even if Tyrod starts the rest of the season he'll be gone. Peterman will probably be in a competition in the offseason for a roster spot of some kind. I think they are going to bet the farm and draft a guy high and clear as much cap space as they can to sign more vets and hope that works out for all the holes they won't be able to fill after trading a lot of picks.

Taro T Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Was surprised they made the switch but figured they expected that going against Lynn that Taylor had no chance of winning & that there was some chance (however small) of winning after making the switch. So, if they really don't expect Taylor to win & want to see Peterman before they are eliminated, this is the game to try him in. Especially w/ the way the Chargers find ways to lose games they should win. If Benjamin can stay in the game &/or DiMarco handles that pass, MAYBE it's a different outcome. But, wow, that was bad. Really don't understand why they kept him in for the entire 1st 1/2 when it was obvious he was not going to get his head on straight.

WR cut to the outside. Ball was to the inside. That's what happens when you "throw with anticipation" or "throw a receiver open" that would barely crack a roster on any other team. No doubt in my mind that would be 100% blamed on Taylor.

Evaluate the results and draft a 1st round QB next year. Hahaha.....that's like having a starting pitcher hit 3 batters, walk 12 and give up two grand slams....and keep him in the rotation to "evaluate" him. Jeez oh man....he just showed he's not ready. It's not his fault but to trot him out onto the field to play QB voluntarily at any point the rest of this season would be criminal.

They have now lost it. They got completely spanked and look like fools for making the switch. The rookie QB embarassed himself. But yea, no harm done. My friend. We werent on pace for the playoffs anyway. I just havent bought into it. After the Jets game I didnt think we would get in. And after the Saints game I dont think they were worthy. This is who they are. This was no anomaly

Some disagreed with me but not everyone would blame Taylor on an apparent miscommunication. I'd be more likely to blame the WR for running the wrong route than a veteran QB. 1 minute ago, Agent 91 said: My friend. We werent on pace for the playoffs anyway. I just havent bought into it.

This was no anomaly I agree with that take and that's why I was fine with the switch. The Jets game was the defining moment for me and I didn't think Taylor was good at all when the game still was in doubt. They can always go back to Tyrod and if he's any good he'll beat the struggling Chiefs. There's no way you could start a rook there if Taylor lost today , which I believe he would have. 1

Just like they blame Taylor for defense and the oline and quarterbacks don't need more than some cast off receivers to do well.

Can we not try to dog Taylor after Peterman had a worse showing than EJ in London. Jesus, I know you guys hate EJ but if Peterman had the game EJ had in London people would say he should start next week. It'd be all about how he made a couple of costly mistakes but had the mental toughness to come back and give his team a chance to win. I don't even know what to think of Peterman other than cut. He's awful. He was supposed to anticipate and be pro ready, read the game, but have a weak arm. The game was way too fast for him. I've seen all I need to. Edited November 20, 2017 by Ol Dirty B

You already made the move and made your bed and you might as well see what you have. Yes, Peterman had an awful day. Rookie QB in his first NFL game that had a fluke Int in the first drive and then tried to keep forcing the ball from that point on. Give him some more reps and see if you can work on his aggressiveness. Take your extreme, the QB who won't take risk or the QB who takes too much. If that's the mindset, why bench him for Taylor then in the 2nd half? I mean, might as well see what you have?
Lfod Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) One thing that earned my respect for Tyrod Taylor is how he had his helmet on at the start of this game. Nate definitely made me appreciate Tyrods play a little bit more. I still wish he would just let the ball rip. I also still think we lose today if he started. This defense has completely fallen apart. I've been down on his play lately but I'm having second thoughts about him. Crazy thoughts about building around him next year....
