In a decision that has been long overdue, Buffalo Bills fans can breathe a sigh of relief, at last, knowing that quarterback Nathan Peterman is no longer on the roster. I know it may seem like I've been harping on this guy recently, but it can't go unnoted that he has thrown as many touchdowns as he has interceptions that have been returned for a touchdown. In Buffalo, we live and die with our team. We ride the bus through the many trials and tribulations that are experienced. We know not to get too high on any particular moment because, in an instance, it will turn into a low. This fanbase has endured too many lows throughout its tenure and releasing Peterman may be the change of mojo that has been needed.

The Bills started their 4th quarterback of the season last week against the New York Jets. Playing a team that has underperformed this season just as much as Buffalo has, the stakes were very low entering the contest. Matt Barkley, a free-agent that was signed to play for the Bills just 12 days before the game was expected to start at quarterback for the team. That's right, the Bills decided to go against playing Peterman, who has been on the roster for over a year and knows the offense far better than Barkley and went with a new guy. And to their credit, Barkley excelled. His first play from scrimmage he ran a fake run play and heaved up a 47-yard completion to Robert Foster.

He dominated the offense for the Bills and lead them to a monster 41-10 victory against their division rivals. More importantly, the Bills put up the most points in a single game in the last three years in their win last weekend. Barkley was a much-needed spark to this seemingly depressing offense. He demonstrated that the guys on this team are talented and capable of playing well, they just needed the right guy in the driver's seat.

After cementing a win, it seemed all but likely that the Bills would finally release Peterman. There seemed no point in having four quarterbacks on their roster and releasing a QB would clear up cap space. Peterman, who clearly resides as the worst out of the four roster spots, would be the guy to go. The following Monday, a dream became a reality. Breaking Buffalo News reported that the Bills had decided to release Peterman in an all but necessary move.

Now, do I feel bad for the guy? Sure, he loved Buffalo and really did try to bring his all to the team. It's unfortunate that it didn't work out in the end, as this happens with players from time to time. However, Peterman's resume may be padded as the worst in NFL history. His 3 touchdown passes to 14 interceptions is by far the worst touchdown to interception ratio by a quarterback ever. I feel sorry for the guy, I really do, but bye bye Nathan Peterman.
