If they do announce Allen the starter, it will truly make me doubt McDermott's ability to evaluate talent, particularly at the QB position. Since the same mistake with Peterman was made last year, I say if he waffles again and does not start Allen the next 15 games (barring injury), he should be fired.

Ahh, how soon we all forget that Cincy game in which Allen was under such heavy pressure he went 6 of 12 for only 34 yards and was sacked 5 times IN THE FIRST HALF! He was sacked for more yards then he threw for...

 

I hope Allen sits until Pickerman throws his picks and then Allen comes n.

And yet those stats are still better than Peterman’s vs the Ravens

You need the home opener to be exciting and for there to be a reason to come out and watch it. That’s not happening with Peterman at the helm.

Or do we need to keep him around because he is a devout Christian? 

 

I keep hearing this narrative. Isn't McCarron also a devout Christian, complete with Jesus tattoos?

Like everyone else, I hope the kid doesn't get killed behind that awful OL. I do not think Peterman was starting because anyone thought he was better than Josh Allen - he was starting because he was expendable.

All I need from Allen and company is that they play a sound game showing marked improvement over last weeks debacle.  

 

How will yo be able to tell if his line can't block and his receivers can't catch?

It will certainly make us more competitive in this game. I hope it turns out well. Hard to argue for a Peterman start again, unfortunately. I hope it’s the best thing long term.

After the Charger game last year and the Ravens game this year he owes more than an apology. #WingsOnNate

 No.. the idiot head coach owes you an apology for putting him out there

The Bills didn't want to start Allen so early but by trading McCarron for a freaking 5th round pick they put themselves in that position. 

Then the Bills should learn to manage the qb position better. They have no clue.

I keep seeing that "The plan was to sit him the whole season" being posted here. If that truly was the plan, that they didnt want Josh to see the field for 10-16 weeks then why would they have traded McCarron. Even if you thought Peterman would be competent, you always have the risk of serious injury. They MUST have felt comfortable enough with Josh being a back-up role. I doubt they anticipated that he would be forced to start by NP being a disaster but they nonetheless the knew him seeing significant time was a very real possibility the second they traded away AJ.

 

Unless they planned to bring in a vet if NP went down, and in that case they would be doing that now.

It is confusing to me too.

Looking at how poorly the offensive line has played all preseason and in that Ravens game. Both Groy and Mills shouldn't be starting or even backups for that matter. Looking at this receiver corps and their inability to get separation or get open a lot of the time. 

 

Looking at how Josh Allen played as the starter in that Cincy game and how Peterman played as the starter in the Ravens games leaves me to think this coaching staff doesn't have a freaking clue. Not to mention trading away AJ McCarron and not replacing him with another veteran QB.

You can’t face your owners and tell them we’re starting the worst QB in the league, and have no chance of winning, because we’re afraid our prized rookie being hurt by our terrible OL coached by our terrible OL Coach because our terrible WR can’t get open, and our prized RB can’t run, because our terrible QB can’t get the other team to stop putting 8-9 in the box.

Bills are going to have to be patient on this one. A rookie qb with great raw talent who needs developement surrounded by marginal talent. Gonna be a real test of Allens mental toughness. Let the unintentional tank begin. 3-13 here we come.

I wonder if any media member is going to have the balls to ask McDermott why he continues to butcher the qb handling on this team? I won’t hold my breath. They will sit there and accept his lame attempts to explain his way out of the mess he’s created.
