ALF Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I really look forward to TC this year and Astro's reports on QBs and OL men. Preseason play then who they can pick up after final cut down. 2

CommonCents Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Which reporter will be first to go with the every Bills QB sucks angle? I think they expect Allen to win the job. AJ was the last remaining FA QB and his contract reflects that. Peterman and AJ should be nothing more than speed bumps for Allen. 1

Because he played lights out? Because he was a highly rated draft pick? The guy won a battle to become a free agent this offseason and then sat and watched every other free agent QB sign a big deal. He's getting paid peanuts (relatively speaking) by the Bills. He is a safety net, not the guy the Bills hope is starting. If the #7 pick in the draft shows during OTAs and training camp that he grasps the offense the Bills would be fools for not letting him take the reins from the get-go. Yep all that. Good job
ddaryl Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Can't vote there are only 3 options and i know there is a 4th arm coming to camp 1
Nanker Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 When are Allen and Harrison Phillips going to sign their contracts? They're going to practice without being signed?

RyanC883 Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I think McCarron starts week 1 and the entire season. I think he surprises people and is this years Jimmy G. Will be interesting to see what happens if Allen is lighting up practices while McCarron performs well during the season. Two good quarterbacks. Fantastic dilemma. I know, seems like a long shot, but I really think this will happen.
C.Biscuit97 Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Off the board choice, Colin Kaepernick! but it needs to be McCarron. He might be terrible but he is a vet and this offense could crush Allen’s confidence.
Soda Popinski Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 It's going to be McCarron. But Allen should be the starter by week 10

I won't be upset in the slightest if he proves me wrong. So at this point, I gotta give the nod to McCarron. I think he may have enough to win the QB competition BUT I would vote for whoever wins out number two to start the season. My reasoning is that we have no idea how the offensive line will hold up they may require tweaking. PLUS - have no idea how the new plays and play calling will fare. I'd just a soon iron out all the wrinkles a bit BEFORE putting our Rookie under center.
DFT Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I think Peterman and McCarron are going to both shock some folks. It’s going to be a good problem to have.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Which of these things is not like the others? It's OTA's man, not the Pre Season. This guy ^ Prediction: Nathan Peterman Bills Starting QB Wk. 1 vs. Ravens Start Allen from Day 1/ QB competition

H2o Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I think Allen flashes enough in preseason/TC, more so than McCarron, and they end up riding with the rookie as the opening day starter.

Do we trust McDermott with qbs after the Chargers debacle? I just have a lot of worries about a guy who struggles in the Mountain West playing in the nfl as a rookie. I think it could crush him and the offense around him looks shaky at best.
Augie Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I voted AJ, mostly because that’s what I’m hoping for. I feel like Allen will need some time to get acclimated, but then, I’ve never even met the guy! It’s entirely possible that he is far enough advanced and has the mental makeup to play from the get go. I just hope they don’t throw him in before he’s (close enough to) ready.
