Kelly the Dog Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 He did not throw one pass downfield tonight. He did not throw one pass that required any arm strength whatsoever. What are you talking about? The TD was a less than 20 yard lob.
Doc Brown Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 Chargers are looking for Rivers' future successor.

He threw several "downfield" and made a few good passes in tight coverage. They weren't all easy dump-offs. Watch the game again. 1
Captain Caveman Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 I didn't watch the game, but here's the closest to trade bait I imagine Peterman being:
todd Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 I'm definitely concerned about Peterman's lack of arm strength. There's not NFL velocity on those balls. Looks like a little less velocity than even someone like Chad Pennington. The wind starts blowing and we've got a problem, because any route over 20 yards becomes a liability. Love his quick release, though. 1
outsidethebox Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 What good is being able to throw a ball 60 yards if it's not accurate. NP arm is plenty strong enough. For some unknown reason, people can't seem to forgive himfor the one bad game. 1

His arm just isnt as good as AJM, and all we need is a placeholder anyway, Allen is the future. Problem is, who is going to trade for him? All the QB needy teams from last year have young QB's already. Maybe Pats, Fins, TB, or Jax could use some competition at the back up spots You cant be serious, right? Trading him away into our division? And to the Patricheats especially? 4 hours ago, Kelly the Dog said: He did not throw one pass downfield tonight.

The bills game was the team in blue but with the buffalo on their helmet...

Extremely few great NFL QBs have a rocket launcher. It's often the sign of a poor QB more than it is the sign of a good one. I'll take the guy that completes passes, and you can have Ricky Vaughan. Hey Man, Don't you go messin with "Wild Thing"...

Or people see his slow velocity and realize teams that play tighter coverage and ball hawk him are going to pick him off. I was actually happy he got the start against the bolts last year. I think he got a bad rap, not all those picks were his fault. I was excited to see what he could do yesterday. But the lack of velocity was on display, and is truly a concern. That's based on observence, not bias from that one game last season. Edited August 10, 2018 by The Red King

I did think his Int was his fault for a pass well behind the receiver. But not matter how great he played or his stats were he NEVER EVER EVER showed that his fatal flaws do not still lurk. Not once. He didn't throw downfield. He didn't show velocity. He didn't handle a strong rush. He didn't look to his third and fourth read. Remember that time he got flushed out of the pocket, extended the play, and hit KB down the sideline for a first down?! Man....if only he had done that last night...

LeGOATski Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 Did anyone get any actual velocity measurements from last night? That would be really helpful. Maybe someone also got Eli Manning's velocity measurements. We could like....compare them. This would be cool.

It's obvious McCarron has the skills to win games and Allen will be next in line. A nice situation! Go get a trade partner that can help our WR, DL or OL. If the season started Sunday you would be trading our starting QB.

Wsam4031 Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 dude had 2 good series cmon> Not being a hater but lets see him play that way for a whole game and then ill think we have some trade bait. If he plays that well for the whole game id like to keep him though

But to pretend that everyone that’s skeptical is ONLY looking at the San Diego game is disingenuous.
