Yeah, but sitting and learning isn't a thing.

 

A QB improves by playing.

 

 

I disagree. I think there is a lot he can learn by practicing against an NFL defense all season, by getting NFL level coaching (on his footwork, mechanics, reads etc etc) all season and by getting to see how things are done in the NFL on a weekly basis.

 

He just made some significant changes to his footwork this offseason, as well. Let him keep drilling it and making it muscle memory. I am not sure being under constant pressure behind a weak o line is the best way to accomplish that. Guys tend to revert to what they know under siege like that. 

 

They can always put him in later this season, too. 

 

As ive said before, it’s a lot easier to go from AJ/Nate to Allen than it is from Allen to AJ/Nate. 

 

I’ve said all along that Id much rather err on the side of caution if Allen didn’t look ready, and I stand by that now.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'd go Allen. He might benefit from the adversity and put up some numbers in the second half. He just doesn't seem like he'd be mentally broken, and he's the most elusive of the 3. But he didn't win the job, so I'm open for whatever as a fan.

 

Also, RAFAEL BUSH!!!! (better runner than the other Bush ;) )

 

Afraid of damaging him, mentally and physically.

 

Never seemed to be down and out this game, kept swinging.

He didn't suck against the Panthers starters at all! But that was the first preseason game and not the 3rd. There's a difference there. 

 

I like Peterman a lot. But you need to judge his performances accurately.

 

We'll never know how he would have looked against the starters today. We can only evaluate what we have to look at. I could see him still being a turnover machine in the regular season. But I could also see Allen getting seriously injured if he's put in too soon. I'll take Peterman for now.

Just in, Mack is on the trading block and Colts and Raiders in negotiations.  And this is the final word

Your "final word" schtick got really old, really fast.

Murphy has impressed all preseason

I hope that doesn't go unnoticed. I've been trying to push that narrative. Like him a lot.

26CB is one of the biggest Nate Peterman haters on TBD

 

I'm not a Peterman hater,  just an Allen fan who wants to see him survive long enough to take this team to a championship.

 

I'd rather see Peterman start the season for now.

I think you have to start Peterman over McCarron.  Allen will be ruined if he starts behind this o-line.  Peterman's arm strength is crap but he throws it quickly and masks the weakness of the offensive line better than McCarron.  As crazy as it sounds after the Chargers game last year, he gives the team a better chance of winning games.

I turned it off before the half. Does Peterman really look as good as that stat line???

 

He has looked really good honestly. Granted it's the 2nd string defense.
