He was stubborn with NP and it cost us the texans game. stick any QB in there to back up allen and we walk away from houston with a win. Then it should also cost him his job.

Pegulas are on a private plane doing coke with strippers. The last thing they are worried about is their billion dollar orchard park investment. 1

So your rant is now moot, as if blaming them for a guy hitting right on the elbow with his helmet wasn't cause enough for this to be moot. No offense, but this hasn't been reported anywhere. We simply don't know yet. We hear that he has a sprain, but a sprain comes in different grades. Some require surgery.
Chuck Wagon Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 First off, they aren't going to take another QB high this draft, it's just not going to happen unless Allen is down for his career or there's reason to believe it might be the case. That being said, I think it's far from worst case scenario. Allen saw plenty of live bullets and has real takeaways to work on. Now they can put Peterman in to play tank commander and finally force McD to get rid of him, meanwhile Allen avoids more abuse / hits to his confidence. Worse case scenario would have been the defense willing them with just enough help from Allen to something like 7-4 and real playoff talk, then Allen getting hurt and Peterman throwing up all over himself, tanking the rest of the season but not getting a good draft pick.

Ronin Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 14 minutes ago, COTC said: It’s unfortunate, however typical. If you don’t like irresponsible leadership mixed with bad luck then I suggest finding a different team. This franchise just spins its wheels with excuses. Its primary concern is profit. Winning is not a priority. Unfortunately, I don't think that anyone "wants a new team," we're all Bills fans. But at some point you have to ask yourself how much time you want to devote to merely financially supporting a team without much coming back to you. Don't you think. No one likes a loser, particularly fans of a loser. But if you have people in charge at the top two or there levels that are clueless as to turn it into a winner, then your choices are to support a loser or simply start paying less attention. You said that their primary concern is profit? Is that your concern too? ... namely their (the Pegulas) profit? ... or do you have other concerns, like winning and at minimum some level of basic competence on the field? If your concern is not their concern, are you contributing to their concern? If so, then can't we say that you're part of the problem? I mean hell, if they have everything that they want after bilking us fans, why should they alter their means of approach? Seriously, why should they if their goals have been met? Of course all the "tough guy" fans & posters here will tell anyone thinking like that that they're not a real fan, to which my reply is that a real fan expects and demands competence and isn't satisfied with anything less. I mean if being a fan is merely contributing to the profits of the owners, then no, I'm not a fan I guess since I don't give a crap about the Peguals financial situation in that regard, I care about competent play on the field and a reason to be proud of at least something in our region socially speaking. If being a fan means expecting, yea demanding competence, and being completely dissatisfied with incompetence, then I'm a fan. So I suppose it depends upon perspective. As I tell people, although I don't go to games anywhere close to regularly, I'd rather go tailgate and watch the game from the lot than contribute to the owners' goals while getting nothing that I want in exchange. But hey, as long as there are enough people that equate fandom to simply being financial cattle to be harvested, then there's not much reason for positive changes, is there? 1

This is promising: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1058274610002466 Methods The NFL Injury Surveillance System (NFLISS) was reviewed for any UCL injuries of the elbow in quarterbacks from 1994 to 2008, including the type and mechanism of injury, player demographics, method of treatment, and time to return to play. Results A total of 10 cases of UCL injuries in quarterbacks were identified starting in 1994. Nine cases were treated nonoperatively and the mean return to play was 26.4 days. Conclusion UCL injuries of the elbow are uncommon injuries in professional quarterbacks. This group of overhead athletes can be successfully treated nonoperatively, in contrast to baseball players, who more commonly need surgical reconstruction to return to competitive play. The difference between the 2 groups of overhead athletes is most likely secondary to biomechanics and demand.
BuffaloBaumer Posted October 16, 2018 Author Posted October 16, 2018 I truly hope they play Peterman the rest of the year so they can at LEAST find out once and for all what is going on with this guy. I know I am one of the few that still wants to see this thing through and the season is meaningless without Allen in there now.
Beast Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 It’s football. It’s a mans game. What part of being inexperienced caused that injury? Cripes.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 Good god. People really need to get a grip. There is a zero point zero chance of the bills drafing another qb next year. 0.0. 3
gobills1212 Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 How does things even get thought? Ive joked about fan fiction, but maybe its time we start a thread for all this..

You just want to see how bad a record he can set like watching a car crash.

For me, it's the fact that throwing Anderson out there is just about the most useless, spinning the wheels type of decision you can make. It is the only decision that will make me stop watching.

That's another good point alongside the person that said that is isn't very "process." So the question then becomes one of whether it would have been better/wiser to build the key parts of the team, like the OL and at least one WR, with 6 picks on days 1 & 2 and grab a QB in next year's draft, or whether it was wiser to turn the first five of those into merely two players, one having been the riskiest QB in the Draft not to mention the most costly in terms of draft picks. I think that the answer is clear at this point. The only questioning seems to be why those making this decision didn't seem to think so. Either way, they've dug themselves an enormous hole to work out of that IMO is impossible. But hey, they got "their guy." That's all that matters, right? Or is it? 1
