Last season quarterback Nate Peterman was the laughing stock of the league after throwing 5 interceptions in the first half of a game.
Nate Peterman is having the worst game of any quarterback in memory. Five interceptions. Six completions.

Peterman is currently on the Oakland Raiders fighting for the backup QB spot and it seems like Jon Gruden is pretty high on him.
“Nate Peterman is growing on me.” — Jon Gruden

Full quote from Jon Gruden on Raiders QB Nathan Peterman. “I know he’s got some nightmare performances in the NFL, but when you watch the film, you can see why: It’s not all his fault.” pic.twitter.com/zfxxBCnBtg

Of course, the Internet roasted Gruden for his praise of Peterman.
No one:
Not a single person:
Jon Gruden: This Nate Peterman guy is growing on me.

Antonio Brown forced a trade to Oakland so Jon Gruden could have Nathan Peterman throwing the other team the ball. Wonderful. https://t.co/cqhb2LrxtV

When Jon Gruden said “ That Nate Peterman is growing on me.” You mean the guy who has 3 career touchdowns compared to 12 interceptions. Someone needs to check Gruden for a serious concussion. pic.twitter.com/Z03OPc3DIV

Jon Gruden exists so Giants fans can look at Gettleman and realize things could be so much worse https://t.co/fJfNuLENeV

There is no doubt that Jon Gruden is one of the worst head coaches in the NFL right now https://t.co/6jzYUDga3r
