In a thread about Peterman you quote a post about Peterman that has no mention whatsoever of Tyrod, and you are still compelled to bring him up. Why? Tyrod's mediocrity has absolutely no bearing on Peterman's abysmal play. Here's a fun fact: over his ~5 quarters of play, Peterman exactly matched Tyrod's passing TD% as a Buffalo Bill (4.1%). Here's another fun fact: In 2017, among all players who attempted at least 20 passes, only one had an INT% over 10% (Peterman). The next highest after Peterman was a tie between Kevin Hogan and Paxton Lynch at 6.7% You want better than Tyrod? Great! Peterman ain't it. And he's gonna need major gains in arm strength to ever even come close. Expand This really makes me chuckle. Peterman throws a much better ball than Taylor -- maybe he's not as good at heaving it as far out of bounds as Tyrod, but in the brief time 2 has been on the field, he's already made throws and reads that Taylor simply can't do. The difference is that Tyrod is smart enough to know his own limitations and just won't attempt passes to Kelvin Benjamin like Peterman did, because he knows his arm sucks. Peterman is still learning, and may or may not ever be anything. I'd be fine with keeping him on as a developmental guy -- if he pans out, great! Turn him into a 3rd round pick down the road. If not and he turns out to be a human interception machine, cut him and move on. No big loss. Tyrod has already concretely proven himself to not be a capable starting QB.

Kirby Jackson Posted January 27, 2018 Posted January 27, 2018 I took a lot of crap for saying that Bills fans aren’t informed. Obviously there are exceptions but we didn’t grow up playing the game, our media didn’t either, we don’t follow college football, and our high school football is played at a low level. We are incredibly loyal and passionate but not knowledgeable. That brings us here, 23 pages into a thread where some people believe Nathan Peterman is a viable starting QB option in the NFL!! Nathan Peterman doesn’t even believe that. 1
