Your argument makes no sense Expand Sure it does. Here is a parallel example: You date someone for 20 years and s/he won't marry you although you have asked five times. You break up and start to date someone new. After a month you ask to get married and s/he says "no." Do you say to him/her "why can't you marry me sooner.... I have been waiting for over 20 years!!??!" This scenario sound stupid? Of course it does.... as does your argument.

Our problem is that we haven't found one yet. You could argue that in the entire 50+ year history of the Buffalo Bills, we've only had one truly good QB. Beane's only had a year so far to find one. Maybe we should give him more time. And the photo, while amusing, proposes a false choice. McD isn't choosing Peterman over a competent QB. So far, he's been choosing Allen (not yet a competent QB) over Peterman. In the army we have an expression: "developing the situation." Instead of following a rigid plan, when the realities are fluid, a leader is expected to 'develop the situation' as circumstances change. Peterman is proving that his good showing in preseason wasn't predictive. Allen is looking like a raw rookie. Similarly, there's been some disappointments at other positions - but some good news too on defense. With $80 mil or so in cap money next year, let's see if Beane and McD can effectively develop the situation. Expand our problem is not that we havent found one. our problem is we have money smart ,sports-dumb ownership...see jerry jones and little danny snyder..

Expand I never thought that the team owed me anything. Where the hell do people come up with this garbage? I am a fan of a team that hasn't had a franchise QB for 22 years since Kelly retired and because I've grown impatient by not having one like most fans have, you think that I think the Bills owe that to me? Not once have I said that nor did I imply it. Ridiculous. The fans are the spectators not the team or regimes themselves. By referring to the players and different coaches and regimes that have nothing to do with people like you and me that are just watching the game, is why your marriage argument doesn't make any sense. Because your talking about one person in particular wanting to marry another person for a long time, having it not happen and then going on to someone and saying I want to get married now because I've been waiting 20 years has nothing to do with someone that has been watching and waiting for that guy to get married at the same time saying "I've been wanting this so badly for you". Like that guy getting married is gonna meet the requirements of the people that have been hoping for him to get married all that time also. That's where your argument is off base. We have had many different coaches and regimes here in the last nearly 20 years and by pointing each one of them out specifically you basically make the argument that we have new franchise players every few years because a different regime brings them in. The team and regimes are different from the fans themselves. Edited October 17, 2018 by Buffalo03
