The Buffalo Bills benched incumbent starting quarterback Tyrod Taylor today, choosing to go with rookie Nathan Peterman for the team’s Week 11 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Taylor was atrocious on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints, completing 9-of-18 passes for 56 yards and an interception. Peterman was 7-of-10 for 79 yards and a touchdown during mop-up duty, but he looked solid enough that the coaching staff felt fit to name him the starter. There are multiple ways which this decision could go for the Bills, so we assembled a pro-con list to discuss the decision.
