All_Pro_Bills Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 10 minutes ago, klos63 said: Starting Anderson will keep the locker room happy? There's no good choice here with either Peterman or Anderson. They can cite circumstances but Beane and McDermott have only themselves to blame for some poor decisions about the composition of the QB group. Start Peterman and there's a good chance we see another pick six, maybe even on the Bills first offensive series. Start Anderson and you put a guy behind center that has been here a couple weeks, probably doesn't have a handle on the playbook, and is likely not even in game shape. The thought process has to be to pick the guy you think has the lower chance of screwing up. IMO, even though I know very little about him my gut feel is that is Anderson. Confidence in Peterman has to be close to zero right now. 1

Figure it out for this Sunday and then it’s RG3 time for a few weeks till the kid finishes the last few weeks of the season. If Flacco is injured they will turn to Griffin. No way they put their offense or 2018 season in the hands of Lamar Jackson. 1

Will we make the playoffs this year?.. prob not. Will I still root for that, yup. Being critical is one thing. I’m plenty critical of them, but the whole “What a nerd, still rooting for playoffs” thing is super weird. It’s just a messageboard, you don’t get cool points to redeem in real life for calling a high draft pick correctly. ??♂️ Make no mistake And don't get it twisted. My team is an embarrassment and has been forever. I have a right for all the years I've been blindly loyal to think this current and ongoing dumpster fire is complete bull#@$&!!!

How embarrassing Murphy said on the radio that the Bills had been calling Anderson all summer and that they finally talked him into signing last week.

That's not really what Anderson said. He said he spoke with them in the spring but didn't really feel right. He also signed for peanuts. So it's very possible they lowballed him and that is why he didn't sign earlier. Beane has been known for that. Sometimes it works, and they get guys cheap. Sometimes they don't get guys because they don't want to play for that.

Sometimes they don't get guys because they don't want to play for that. What I heard him say during his WGR interview last week, in response to a question from John Murphy about why he did not sign with anyone during free agency, he said that he had a number of calls but "nothing felt right". When asked if the Bills were one of those teams that called, he said "maybe" and chuckled. Could have been money, could have been the situations he was being asked to join, could be he was not sure he wanted to play. Obviously they were persistent. He may well have been their top target all along.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 Vic Carucci Verified account @viccarucci 3m3 minutes ago Can confirm #Bills QB Josh Allen has an elbow sprain, as reported by @john_wawrow & @MikeGarafolo. League source says Allen is "week to week," as Sean McDermott said Monday. Source also says Allen's playing status for Sunday will become clear as the week goes on. 1 reply 5 retweets 9 likes

MAJBobby Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 If Peterman starts Sunday. McD should be fired Monday. It is really as easy as that

If it isnt than 2 failed OCs Passing on Mahomes (Watson to a lesser extent) 1941 passing offense His preaching of good guys to cause a talent void there is more than enough. If he Trots Peterman out to start Sunday for Part 4. He ABSOLUTELY should be fired Monday 1

It is really as easy as that Why - is Anderson the answer? If JA does not play - it does not matter who is at QB. The options are limited and sometimes you have to play guys like Thad Lewis or Peterman. I quite frankly do not care who plays QB if it is not Allen - neither are long term answers and neither are winners -so quite frankly just trot someone out and get the game over with. 1
Perry Turtle Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 2 hours ago, jkirchofer said: Luck may not hang 350 and 4 on us, but he won't need to when we trot either Anderson or Peterman out on the field. If the Bills run the ball 80% of time, they can railroad the Colts defense. The Bills defense can handle Luck. The key is not turning the ball over (and that includes special teams). Give Anderson the start and let him play the role of a veteran game manager. That should be enough to compete with the Colts. The Patriots will murder us, but a game manager can win against Indy's defense.

It is really as easy as that I think putting a 35-year-old QB who's been on the Bills for a week and hasn't taken a meaningful snap in two years would be a pretty bad move. Plus it won't be nearly as fun, as far as TBD meltdowns are concerned. 1 1
