Bobby Hooks Posted August 25, 2018 Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) I’m happy with Allen’s progress. If he takes a step back it’s just proving what everyone already believed. Hes is a supremely talented guy that might need a little time to develop. With that said, if he performs well, I don’t see how he won’t start. Edited August 25, 2018 by Bobby Hooks

The head coach himself said that he still considers all three QBs to be on equal footing and the competition is still ongoing. The fans may have written off AJ McCarron, but I don't believe the coaching staff has done the same.
dollars 2 donuts Posted August 25, 2018 Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) If he is 11-20, for a td, no picks and 120 yards, without making any glaring mistakes then I am perfectly fine with that. in other words he doesn't have to blow the doors off for me to keep thinking of him as the starter.

I'm also a Peterman advocate, and am 100% comfortable with him starting if need be. If Allen fails tomorrow though, are we back at square one with McCarron, Peterman and Allen? I'd like to think no, but listening to media this week, there seems to be this narrative that it's Allen's job to lose and I'm not so sure. I spelled tomorrow wrong. Oops What if we don't post stupid **** on this forum ????

Youd better believe if his play wasn’t impressing them he wouldn’t be getting this opportunity. Edited August 25, 2018 by Bobby Hooks 1

IgotBILLStopay Posted August 25, 2018 Posted August 25, 2018 No need for such a negative Nancy thread. HE WILL DO WELL OVERALL. And if he makes a mistake, he will learn from that. Remember he has barely had a week of first team reps.

billsfan89 Posted August 25, 2018 Posted August 25, 2018 It depends on how bad. If Allen looks like a rookie (a bad decision that leads to a turn over and some bad missed throws) but still shows flashes of improved footwork I will still have confidence in him. But if Allen looks horrendous then I think you have to reconsider starting him. I think that even if he is bad he won't look bad enough to consider benching him for Peterman who sucks.
Lfod Posted August 25, 2018 Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) I've been an advocate for Peterman. As many pointed out he has shown well in preseason before. I don't disagree about his flaws. I like his potential a little more than other people. I think Peterman at least recognized that throwing to Kelvin Benjamin is money before Tyrod. Josh Allen is making some noise. I've preached caution with him. I wasn't in favor of him starting right away. He really himself has changed my mind with some of his work. I can't deny the potential. I'm ok with Josh Allen not being perfect tomorrow. I just would like to see established rythm. If it is absolutely clear Josh Allen isn't able to maintain tomorrow I will have to be in favor of giving Peterman the nod. I think any QB is starting for the Bills is going to have to react very quickly a lot of times. I hope daboll is a wizard. I like Peterman but Josh Allen is the favorite for a reason. Seeing him progressing has been a treat. I would be surprised if he doesn't make some plays tomorrow. I'm in favor of Peterman getting the start this season but the story would end better if Josh Allen is the winner. Edited August 25, 2018 by Lfod
Misterbluesky Posted August 25, 2018 Posted August 25, 2018 The forecast has changed for tomorrow afternoon...the heavy showers and 20 plus mph winds will be out of here by mid afternoon. The weather won't be a factor as was first thought. Fire Away,Josh.
26TrapDraw Posted August 25, 2018 Posted August 25, 2018 I think this is the perfect set up for everyone. McBeane are in a win win. Allen goes out and kills it on Sunday then it's a no brainier . He has a crap game and they can say we wanted to give him valuable experience blah blah blah and they can start one of the vets.

Accurate as well as succinct.
