We have seen repeatedly that the line can not hold up for more than one second much less 3, josh allen has the greatest arm i have seen in a long time but he is not going to get a chance with our line.
Mr. WEO Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 18 minutes ago, Kelly the Dog said: Disagree, WEO. Peterman owes his career to McD. There is a lot of pressure on Nate to perform. He desperately does not want to be known as the only player in NFL history whose HC had to stand up and apologize to the team for playing him, TWICE! Worst case scenario? He goes back to being what he was supposed to be in this league. No shame in that. His career would continue as it should. No one, save a few Petermaniacs here, expect NP to be anything other than a very temporary placeholder for Allen. Sure, the kid doesn't want to bomb for the same reason none of us would....but there really isn't much pressure on this kid to anything but hold tight for a few games.

If he throws two INTS early, his career is over. I do truly understand what you are saying. But as soon as he plays bad he goes to the bench and never gets off it. You as a fan may think that he's just going back to where he should be or always was going to be. But he doesn't think that. He probably still thinks he is going to be Tom Brady. As soon as he throws that first INT, especially if it's early, an enormous avalanche of pressure comes on him.

He is a 5th round QB who is keeping the seat warm for a first round pick Nobody expected him to be anything other than MAYBE a backup... except saviorpeterman ... he should only be trying to prove to himself he can play.. not care about anyone else yeah, but everyone knows him as the guy that threw five picks in a half. historically bad. i'm sure he wants that taste out of his mouth. and i am also pretty sure that he will have to move mountains in order to silence some of his harsher critics. not to mention, there will be a large contingent of fans screaming for the rookie with every drive not resulting in a td. that is some serious pressure.
Prickly Pete Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 He blows. He's the kind of guy that wins the job by posting himself next to the new OC's office to help him move in, and making sure to leave the practice field last so the coach says "wow, this guy is just so dedicated!" 1

In some ways, it is better that he is playing on the road. If this game was at New Era, boos for him and booze for us could come very early.

Casual NFL fans have no idea who Nathan Peterman is. He is playing with house money no one expects anything great and we have a young kid waiting on deck... if he plays good it is a bonus for us because we can win games this year, give Allen some competition to win the job, and have some trade bait in the future or we have a long term backup

If he goes to the bench then he will be going back to the bench. He was brought in as a backup QB. He will still be one. If he thinks he's going to be the next Tom Brady, that's aspirational, but delusional. If every backup thought that, they would all be suffering from crushing disappointment every day of their career. They don't.

If he throws two picks EARLY because he cannot throw an out pattern he is done. For good. He is not like other backups. I don't think they are not going to give him another chance if that happens. If he throws two in the whole game, sure. he will likely play the whole game and start the next one (although he shouldn't). If he throws two picks in the first three series he probably gets Savaged.

But if he does, then he will know he won't be Tom Brady, and that's ok. Neither was Peyton Manning....
HappyDays Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 2 hours ago, Kelly the Dog said: Zips is probably a good description. The Reilly pass was a great pass and the one that made me think he possibly has enough zip on them. I wasn't convinced though. Just my opinion. If he shows that he can throw a wee bit harder than that, 20 yards downfield, I will completely change my opinion of him. I just haven't seen it yet. Sure but I'm guessing before the game you wouldn't have thought he could make that play, but he did. And same goes for the pass to Kerley on an out route. That was the one that really surprised me. It got to him in plenty of time and right where it needed to be. We all know Peterman's arm is relatively weak by NFL standards but I'm not convinced it's too weak to make the plays that count.
Lfod Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 People having doubts about Peterman is not a surprise to me. I'm over it. He is the starter and I'll get to see if he's for real or not soon enough.

I fear he is going to get crushed. well try rooting for this team for once. i went to the week one thread only to see you being a wipe. maybe you should try praying. i'm off this site until 4pm on sunday. i'm tired of the posers.
Domdab99 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 2 hours ago, Bring it said: Peterman has tough sledding right out of the gate. 3 quality defenses weeks 1-3; and week 4 an offense that he will probably have to out score in a shootout. If he can get us to at least 2-2 I will be happy to root for him If he gets us to 2-2 he's Jim Kelly incarnate. 1
