KGun12TD Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 (edited) Ah yes, it's Nathan "Pre-Season" Peterman. Edited August 11, 2019 by KGun12TD 1 1
Billsfansinceday1 Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Boy, does Gruden ever have a treat coming in September!
ALF Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Peterman and Tuel are nice guys , but are camp and preseason players only not meant for a 53 roster.

(But not @Kirby Jackson, lol) In all seriousness, what is it about preseason that Peterman rocks like a boss?? The game is a full second slower in the preseason. It's the same reason why EJ Manuel typically looked solid against backups. Things happens slower, so the decisions are easier, and a weaker arm is sufficient.

He is a thoroughly decent kid who tries his best but is simply not cut out for the NFL. Doesn't mean that he deserves to be ridiculed. As a person, you have to admire his grit, perseverance, and kindness--I do not think I ever heard a harsh or disparaging word from him on TV or on social media. Good for him. And, he is a NFL Pre-Season All Pro, maybe one of the best of all time (which is why he keeps getting a chance). But the truth is, he has failed at epic levels once the games counted---and by the way, I also blame the Bills coaching staff for that (that's been rehearsed ad nausea on the TBD board). That's too bad, for him. His criticism here are fair. But let's face it, the fun of this experience (discussion boards) is it will always take things further than necessary--hopefully not crossing that line (but that is what the Mods are for). Regardless, my take will always be one of cheering for him to get the chance to prove all us doubters wrong some day. And because of the classy person he is, I am confident when (if) he does, he will never say anything derogatory to all of us who have mocked and beat him up here. In the meantime, he was awful in Buffalo and there is no other way to characterize it. Edited August 11, 2019 by CSBill 7 1

He's definitely a preseason warrior though as he had me convinced he could be a serviceable starter until Allen was ready after last preseason.

He is just not NFL material, but maybe he can find a niche in a lower league. He seems to excel against lesser players in preseason. He deserves a little glory for his efforts.

I believe most of the posters on this forum keep their opinions confined to Peterman's play on the field, which, unfortunately for Nate, has been a target rich environment for a football discussion board, and away from his character - as it should be. 1
Mr. WEO Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 People keep forgetting that McD purposefully kept NP from facing any starters in last years preseason games.
JPP Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 LOL......QB controversy in Oakland? Oh that silly Gruden..... 1

Not true. Peterman started the first game versus the Panthers and each QB was rotated with the starting unit. 2
Don Otreply Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Nate sure looks kinda slow, either that or that D is really slow... Go Bills!!!
Kirby Jackson Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Death, taxes and Peterman lighting it up in August
ProcessYaDigg Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 He has always been a "Pre-season MVP." Gruden will love him at first, but wait til he sees Peterman in a game that matters.

He is a thoroughly decent kid who tries his best but is simply not cut out for the NFL. Doesn't mean that he deserves to be ridiculed. He plays in a profession that’s highly ridiculed. Brady gets it for his mannerisms. You’re going to get ridiculed if you’re good or bad. It’s life. They’re adults.
