Warcodered Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 Just now, Kelly the Dog said: Unfortunately, I genuinely believe that right now McDermott doesn't know himself who he is going to choose, which is frightening. I'd say that right there should be a good answer for him. If your starter plays one game and you're already wondering if he should still be the starter then probably not.

If he wasn't we are in trouble. He then made the decision to start Nate in the third. That wasn't a crazy decision. I personally wouldn't have but I could understand why he made that choice. If he benched Nate then it would be really hard to go back and start him. If he waited until the game was out of hand, which he did, he could then go either way.

I was just curious to see if they are just loud, or if there really are that many. I think the Petermaniacs are in hiding and likely to wait a while to come back. One of them is rummaging around today as troll, though. Pretty hilarious.

Pretty hilarious would be to revisit your 120 posts ( of EJ ) on daily basis !! People who live in glass houses I’m sure know the rest !!! I used to disagree with you but I respected your opinion, now I see your true colors !! Edited September 10, 2018 by Putin

Let me know when EJ’s switch will come on I’m still waiting Just like I was what? Hiding? I never hid. Trolling? Like about Peterman because I wasn't high on his preseason play the way some of you were... perhaps blinded by the cloud of smoke as you exhaled? I wasn't trolling. I was telling it like it is. Surely today's results should assure you of that.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 Allen hands down. We all know what we saw, McD will too.

If Peterman somehow hangs on to the start and has a Peterman against the Chargers the call to bring Allen in is going to be deafening. You can't just not play your good players because the team isn't good right now. The biggest thing Allen needs is reps.

Conventional NFL HC philosophy would be once you make a QB change, you can't go back.

That was my point. That would have been true if he did it at halftime. But the game was basically over when he put Josh in. This came across as the outcome isn't in doubt, let's get the rook some reps more than we talked it over at half and we're benching Nate like we did last year. 1
Aussie Joe Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 Allen will start next week, but it won’t surprise me at all to see NP back starting another game later in the season due to injury..
GunnerBill Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 Kirby revealed last week that there are players in the locker room that don't like McDermott. If he starts Peterman next week there will be 52 of them. Seriously with that clown at QB this team is hurtling towards 0-16. He. Can. Not. Play. 2
1st Ammendment NoMas Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 After a promising pre-season, I had hoped NP had turned the corner and would put in a solid performance this week, but it was another historic epic fail. I wasn't 100% against him starting week one, knowing Allen could use some time to get acclimated to the speed of the game and didn't want to see him lose his head behind the abysmal line. But after today, I know we can no longer even count on NP for a spot start. It's Allen's team now. Time to find us a capable vet backup who can hold the fort down and help Allen. I think Derek Anderson would be a nice choice. Kind of like McCown for Darnold.
Doc Brown Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 Allen had more yards running than Peterman did passing. Start the kid and maybe look to sign a veteran like Matt Moore.
ALF Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 Peterman was a 5th rd pick for a reason. He might be ok as a backup behind a solid OL

Jay Cuttler TJ Yates Derek Anderson Mark Sanchez Matt Moore Colin Kaepernick Any of which would be an upgrade to Peterman. I have the sick feeling that our management will stand pat with what we have. 1
Dr. K Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 I supported them starting Peterman after the preseason but forget that. The one game has shown that it is not going to work. Allen may not be ready, but they have to start him to have any chance of winning any games.

It's one thing to play well in training camp and the preseason but this team has watched Peterman go into REAL NFL games and play as bad as you possible can play twice now in games that didn't have a whiteout. When a player plays his worst when the games count the most there is no way his teammates can have confidence in him and Peterman simply looks scared and like he never has played football in his life before in real games...completely the opposite of what he did in the preseason. It's obvious Peterman cannot handle playing under the bright lights. When the chips are down, Peterman folds like a cheap tent. i agree with this. also, if you start peterman in the home opener and the game goes south like it did in baltamore, it is going to get really ugly at the Ralph. embarrassingly ugly. ugliness of biblical proportions. 1
The Process Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 Peterman is only good when there is a good pocket that doesn't collapse....and WRs are open. On replays it seemed there were several opportunities to step into the pocket....then again I'm not on the field so....
