A lot of folks obviously aren't going to be happy when he's the starter next year..... It does feel like its lining up that way doesnt it? We arent going to have the draft capital to take one of the top QB's and we have too many needs to blow all the picks for the second tier guys.

BuffaloBillyG Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 24 minutes ago, buffalo2218 said: Yeah starting Peterman really decresed the Bills chances of winning against a hot San Diego team on the road. Given how Taylor played against the Saints the week before, it's possible he could have been worse against the Chargers How dare you use solid reasoning and logic.

Despite all the talk of trading up for a franchise QB, I still get the sense that Beane and McD love NP and will build around him in the offseason. This doesn't mean we won't bring in another veteran or draft another QB in the mid rounds though. 14 minutes ago, buffalo2218 said: I seriously doubt if the Bills have a chance to get one of these guys in the draft, they'd pass them up just to build around Peterman. Peterman has a very long way to go in terms of development. Can you imagine a playoff team turning their QB situation over to a 5th round rookie that completed 49% of his passes and threw 5 picks in a half?!? That’s not happening. There is little to no chance that the Bills hand the keys to NP next year. Edited January 2, 2018 by Kirby Jackson

If we draft a QB high, which seems likely, would it be better to have Taylor, whichever vet journeyman is available, or Peterman/Webb? If you are drafting a QB you probably want a fundamentally sound QB for them to look up to.

Hot-Rod was playing uninspired, crappy football at the time and the coaching staff wanted to see what their other QB could do. I had no problem with them doing that. Starting Peterman I get. Letting him throw five picks in one half, I don't get. j If they pull him after the second pick, Peterman could've shaken off the rough outing. One pick was a tip and the second one just wasn't a good pass. He could've recovered from his first start with only two picks. Letting him completely meltdown, throw five picks in one half and become a national joke? Not a good move at all. Peterman can say all he wants about getting past it, but you know it'll be on his mind for some time. IMO, it was completely unfair to NP. Edited January 2, 2018 by Bills757

I'd like to say blink and you missed it K-9 but with each interception I kept blinking to check I wasn't dreaming and no... it was real. Everyone keeps saying he wasn't ready, he wasn't ready.... I am not sure that is the case at all. I think he is as ready as he will ever be. He just isn't very good.

Of course they did if the Chargers let off the gas with a 30 point lead How far do you have to stretch to not give Taylor any credit that he is due? I didn't see the Chargers "let off the gas." They were pumped.

In all seriousness, McD could've picked a different team to have Peterman start. The Chargers' pass rush was brutal and not a good matchup for Peterman. What was Taylor's statline against the Saints? Believe it was something like 50 yards passing for a WHOLE game, I'm not reaching at all. I understand McDermott's reasoning after that dreadful performance. Taylor might not have thrown as many picks, but do you really believe he would have fared THAT much better?

It's a longshot that he'll ever be more than a backup QB.

I'm not sure Taylor could've been worse if he tried. No, but a guy that holds the ball too long could have takes 8-10 sacks and lost a couple fumbles. Or just kept going 3 and out. Or just checked down to a RB or TE on 3rd and 18.

PIZ Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 Heard a clip of Deon Sanders of all people the other day. He talked about the benching of Tyrod for the Chargers game. He said "why would you bench your QB when you're in contention". This is not verbatim, but he said when he looked into it and talked to the players, he found out that it was justified, and the players thought it was needed. He felt Tyrod needed that to look at his game and make adjustments.

Benching Taylor may have actually helped him, sure did look that way in KC

It seems to me that his stat line against the same team in the second half of the same game is a bit more relevant.

What's more damaging, an ineffective passing game or giving the other team 5 turnovers and short fields to score?

Personally I think it is a longshot that he is in the league in 3 years. There might be as many as 10 or 11 Quarterbacks in this upcoming draft I'd take over him. I'd love to be wrong and see him become the Frank Reich of this era for us but I just don't think he is an NFL talent.
