Terry76 Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 If McD plays McCarron all game it better be Josh starting Game 1, unless they value McCarrons trade value over your young QB development. 1
Terry76 Posted August 31, 2018 Author Posted August 31, 2018 LOL.....OK. Good reply, mate. So what is the theory on why you keep both out?
brianthomas Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 it HAS to be... it's just gotta! To be honest, I don't take anything for a given with this team. All options are on the table until the game starts come week 1. But by the time the game is over tonight, we should have a little better of an idea, but surely nothing we can cement in stone.
Kirby Jackson Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) I think that the OP’s post has merit. You’d think there would be some (or a lot) of value in getting Allen reps today. I actually thought that he may play the whole game. There would be no reason to sit him otherwise. Edited August 31, 2018 by Kirby Jackson 7

Cheektowaga Chad Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 This is my thinking too Getting reps for Allen should be a priority if he isnt starting 1
Coach55 Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 Showcasing McCarron to be used as part of the trade for Mack... Peterman will start... not risking Allen with the reserves. ... or McCarron is showing himself the door to the league.

Exactly, if it was Peterman then Allen would be in the game, McD might be trying to be sneaky but this sucks if he is just sacrificing Allen's reps for a one game advantage. I am not saying Allen can be successful with our current team but he could use the experience.
Coach55 Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 Logan Thomas 2nd QB in after McCarron leaves the game...
mykidsdad Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 I don't know. If they're trying to confuse people, it's working. I think the one thing we agree on is McCarron is out as the Bill's QB. 1

DuckyBoys Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 Not sure I understand the logic of AJ for the entire game. I would understand Peterman or Allen not playing because they are the starter.. What is McDermotts thought process on this?

Steptide Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 This is an audition for McCarron when he gets cut/traded. Allen is the number 2, and I doubt they want him getting injured

I agree. My thinking to was if Peterman is going to start Wk 1, they'd have given Allan all he reps he could have this week. I was surprised somewhat that AJ did play as I also thought as a vet playing AJ tonight would have been beneath him. So also does make me think they are trying to showcase him for trade value
