Hrm throw Tyrod back into an unwinnable game and he picks up 17 points and throws 0 interceptions. Man if you had had two halves of 17 points instead one with 7 and 5 picks and a fumble you might have actually won this game and been pulling away in the AFC playoff hunt.

You sure about this?

I can see the press conference now:

“Peterman will start next week. He’s our quarterback and gives us the best shot to win.”

I'm honestly looking most forward to who's going to throw who under the bus come tomorrow to try and avoid taking blame for Peterman.

Well, that and the excuses from the fan shithouse about how it's the team's fault, not Peterman's.

Two things Bills fans will absolutely say over the next week.

1. Look, obviously a horrible debut, but he's only had one week of practice as the starter. We know what Tyrod is already, but we should at least use the next six games to see if Peterman can rebound.

2. Who cares, we're hosed anyway, might as well start Peterman and play for draft position.

(2 is fair, really.)

Bills fans were calling for Tyrod to get benched in favor of Cardale Jones last season. We really hate Tyrod for some reason.

Barudak

Look, we all know that in a clear A/B study Tyrod is superior in every conceivable way to Peterman, but its not a large enough sample size. After, say, 160 more games we should be able to make a clear conclusion. Until then, Peterman starts.

I've been saying #2 every November/December for over a decade as the team see-saws around .500 and keeps the faint hope of a playoff spot alive.

Why evaluate the QB situation in the middle of a playoff run?! The Bills haven't been to the playoffs in 18 years. Who even cares if they're one and out. Just. Get. There.

Tyrod is an average QB but he doesn't deserve the lovely treatment Buffalo has given him and there's many teams that would improve if he was their starter.

Not really clear. The leaks stopped once Rex and Whaley left town.

Considering Rex was fired for not benching Tyrod and McDermott categorically ruled out starting anyone other than Taylor as recently as a week ago, ownership seems like the likeliest answer. Some beat reporters suggested it might have come from Dennison, but I think that was purely speculation.

Yeah, that could well be the case. Remember that bizarrely passive-aggressive statement the team issued when Tyrod Taylor got off-season surgery? Our dumb-gently caress owners are riding the best quarterback we've had since Jim Kelly out of town on a rail because he's not as good as Jim Kelly and black too hip-hop.
Nathan Peterman is the quarterback they deserve, it's just too bad the rest of us are along for the ride.
