Bills still weighing QB decision after Nathan Peterman's woeful outing vs. Ravens

Sean McDermott announced Monday afternoon … well, nothing regarding the quarterback position.

Despite a woeful performance by Nathan Peterman Sunday in the Bills' 47-3 loss to Baltimore, McDermott said at his day-after press conference that no decision on the starter has been made for Sunday’s home opener against the Los Angeles Chargers.

“Still going to evaluate where we are, dotting the I’s, crossing the T’s,” he said. “When you look at the tape, I’ve been through it a couple times already, we all have to do our job better. You can go around the team, in all three phases we didn’t play well enough to win the football game.”

The Bills suffered the second-worst loss in the 59-year history of the franchise, and as McDermott admitted, Peterman was far from the only problem, but he was a big piece of the disaster.

2. That coach needs to go too after getting rid of Taylor and keeping interception machine Peterman.

Guess he'll finally start the rookie pick after that first game disaster.

3. The problem is the OL and WRs are horrendous. Maybe even historically bad.

And they can't afford to let the rookie get killed out there, or for his confidence to get shredded.

4. I feel for you. My team, the Raiders, foolishly just let one of top defensive players go when they..
