At any rate the 3rd QB played in the meaningless 4th preseason game to showcase him for a trade that came to fruition.

Expand Let's not pretend that he won this competition because he severely outplayed the competition, he was just the better of a crappy bunch. It appears that Allen was always destined to start the season on the bench and after McCaron got hurt it was Nates job because he didnt crap the bed. The Bill's QB "competition" was a battle over who was the tallest 'little person '
Aussie Joe Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 Congrats to the OP for his prediction and for winning his bet which I would have thought was about a 25/1 shot at the time.. Hopefully now that the decision is made we can all move positively forward..

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 If this was a QB competition, Peterman won and it wasnt even close. Nice to see McDermott actually stick to that and not just hand jobs to people like the EJ days. 1
Your brain broke Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 I went back and read some of this thread for the first time too. Eye opening how stubborn some of you are. 5
Scott7975 Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 Way to hang in there on your prediction. When you first made it, I thought there was no chance he would start. By about preseason 3 I changed my mind. Its obvious that he was the best of the 3 by that point. I still don't think he will do very well in the real season though.
zow2 Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 Good move to start Nate in this one. It's also the right move. I really hope he can redeem himself. That being said, this is a brutal opener to the 2018 season. Honestly, with all the question marks on the Bills, I'll consider this game a success if we start the 4th quarter in a competitive game (within 7 points or less)....and Nate has thrown only 1 INT or none.
HappyDays Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 (edited) Credit to @BurpleBull for sticking with his prediction well before most fans thought there was a realistic chance. When McDermott said it was an open competition, I'm not sure why so many posters thought he was lying. Edited September 3, 2018 by HappyDays 1
GoBills808 Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 Nice call OP. I was giving you 5-1 on the first page, did you ever end up taking those odds?
