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. seems like we always do

I want NP gone and KB benched. Matt more Ore is a FA and he hasn't been signed yet??? It's like the bills FO WANTS to have terrible QBs??

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. He'll still have to throw the ball , right? What is a game manager anyway? Still have to play the game
The_Dude Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 McDermott deserves to be fired for his process on offense.

Nelius Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 This season has been so effing miserable I can envision a scenario in which Derek Anderson quits halfway through the game after getting sacked for the eighth time. He was on vacation with his family two weeks ago and had to be talked into signing apparently, guarantee he doesn’t want to start for this mess right now. if Peterman is in uniform the football gods will ensure he sees the field somehow. Get him out of here and get somebody else in immediately. 2

Still have to play the game Sure, he'll have to make a few key throws, while handing the ball off 75-80% of the time. The Jets ran all over the Colts defense. The Bills can too. And how complicated do you think the Bills offense is right now? It's designed for a rookie QB. Most plays have one or two reads. A 35 year old veteran should be able to manage it easily, even if he only has two weeks with the playbook. Avoiding turnovers is the biggest key to getting a win this week. Knowing that, only a total fool would start Peterman. 1

Wednesday: Monday's winner vs. Bar Bill. Thirsday: Tuesday's winner vs. LaNova. Friday: Fish Fry. This will take a while. Multiple gin mills in the running.

Plus it won't be nearly as fun, as far as TBD meltdowns are concerned. Can’t be worse than Peterman, I can’t see any scenario Peterman being named as the starter. I think they will be run heavy and limit Anderson to 15-20 pass attempts. Edited October 16, 2018 by K-Apps 1

Phils n Bills Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 I can’t believe what a bad situation were in regarding the QB position. There’s still no consensus on whether your backup QB is starting, which is normal practice on any other team in this league, or whether we are trotting out a 35 year old veteran who was never really good who has only been on the team for a week. If that doesn’t scream “problem” then I don’t know what does. This is the process? I don’t want any more process. I want some positive direction and a plan.
