In the first series the Bills should pump fake the throw and have a WR do a double move up the sideline. Even if it’s not complete it will help keep the DBs honest. 

It's funny because that's exactly what I thought. And my immediate next thought was that the Ravens would know this too and sneak a safety over looking for just that play. 

 

Or Nate would get killed because he only had 1.9 seconds to throw. 

 

 

I'm sure the team knows Peterman is temporary. Shady said it a couple months ago, everyone can see Allen's talent and it's only a matter of time before he gets the start. Taking Tyrod out halfway through the season with a winning record is much harder to come back from than sitting the rookie for the first few games. McDermott doesn't have to apologize for that no matter how it turns out. Few rookie QBs start week 1.

Probably not. But if it's a disaster he will. I'm sure he is not going to throw five INTs. But it could be a Tom Savage situation.

IMO now the best we can hope for is that Peterman improves his trade value over this season with a good performance. If he doesn't, it's a waste of valuable time in a season in which wins aren't expected. 

 

Personally I'm not holding my breath on the first part, but it's good to have goals.

 

If Peterman actually plays well this season you don’t trade him. He’s insurance in case the #7 pick doesn’t develop like you hope. It would be just like the Bills to trade away a QB who plays well with just the hope that someone else might be better.

 

All the Bills should be hoping for is that one of these two young QBs turns into a legit franchise guy. Odds are it’s Allen but the odds have been wrong before...

I'll be rooting like hell for Peterman to surprise the world, but everything I've seen from him in terms of arm talent is preparing me for a long Sunday morning.

Valid point. :beer:

 

Personally I've already seen enough from Allen to know he's going to be the better pro so I wouldn't hesitate to trade Peterman even if he has a monster year (for a first round pick, of course). But I don't have a crystal ball.

lets hold on to Peterman a bit longer. he might be the perfect back up in Buffalo.
and because Bills are likely to run a Patriots style offense. peterman might survive the Ravens and the Chargers. I hope so.

Don’t like this decision personally.

 

Still trying to accept the Bills are starting a 5th round rookie last year with very minimal talent 

 

Let's just put it this way:  There is probably a reason Beane fought tooth and nail to preserve next year's draft picks intact.

Picking Nathan Peterman as the Bills' starting QB was the right, and logical, choice

 

Sal Maiorana, Rochester Democrat and Chronicle
 
ORCHARD PARK – Nathan Peterman it is, not that anyone should truly be surprised by Sean McDermott’s decision which was announced early on Labor Day morning.
 
“Nate has earned the right,” McDermott said of the second-year player who will be Buffalo’s starting quarterback for the regular-season opener Sunday afternoon in Baltimore. “I thought with his total body of work through the spring and summer and fall camp to this point, he has certainly earned the right.”
 
The Bills coach made it perfectly clear from the start — as Peterman, Josh Allen and A.J. McCarron stated their cases to be QB1 — that each would be afforded a fair shot to win it. To his credit, McDermott did not deviate from that plan as they all started one of the first three preseason games, and they all took plenty of reps with the first-string offense in training camp.
 
When all the evaluations were concluded, the evidence was clear-cut in favor of Peterman, and McDermott made the undeniably proper and logical call.

Didnt I bet you $10,000 that Peterman would start?  Let me know when you’re ready for my checking and routing number.

I’ll take that and make sure he gets it......

What are the odds Peterman finishes the Ravens game?

 

Are injury and/or ineffectiveness in order?

 

 

I'm sorry, I think Peterman totally blows and it's a big waste of time seeing him starting.

 

His arm talent doesn't allow him to be a good NFL QB.

 

Since they got rid of McCarron, I would much rather see Allen go through the growing pains than see Peterman start.

 

I hope I am wrong about Peterman.

 

If I have to work Sunday and can't watch the game.............. I can see the update I get around 2;50pm...................

 

Ravens 27-3 with 4:30 to go in the 3rd quarter and Peterman is 11-26-93yards, 3 INT's

 

Peterman is Trent Edwards with a weaker arm................. if that's possible.

What's your prediction if they started Josh Allen?

It won't be much better, but Allen gets the much needed experience...................... if he survives his hideous OL.

Fair enough.  It's a long season for rookies compared to college.

Personally, I have no problem with NP starting the 1st 4 games (if he survives).
