Can we mix and match? I'd like to see red jersey/blue pants combo.

Colt could be the next Keenum. Or the whole team could flop.
Sucks for Smith, I don't think you'll see him play again. He's old enough that he might just call it a day. Hard to come back from something like that mentally.

Im refering to him not being the GOAt if you follow everything. So your reply is really irrelavent to what Im saying. And Brees and Manning would be the same case. Rivers and Big Ben would do alright in any era I believe.
Wow. You are dense.
Numbers wise, he's the GOAT. There really is no argument or discussion to be made. Trying to say he couldn't play in a different era is what's irrelevant. He didn't time travel to play in this era of football.

So let me just get this straight. We drafted the QB with the least amount of Division 1 snaps. We then gave him only a third of the reps in the offseason. And now he's missed 5 weeks of reps due to injury.
And you want to limit his reps if he struggles?
Buffalo really is where QBs go to die. Sorry Josh.

And in the 80 and 90s his scrawny a$$ would have never made through a whole season. Do guys realize how much the modern offensive numbers are corrupted by these rule changes. These scores and offensive greatness are fabricated with protections that make it so you cant fart near an offensive skill position without giving the offense a big chunk of yardage and a fresh set of downs. The Bills, Cowboys, 49ers, Giants of the late 80s and early 90s would steamroll any Brady team under the rules of their time. I couldnt image what Brady would do when LT or Steve Atwater laid the wood on him. Hed retire at halftime I imagine.
I get it that young guys like OJ Tom (and Im guessing The eggman is a younger guy as well) dont realize that you could just about mug a reciever back then. I think roughing the passer was just hitting him more than 2 steps after he through the ball. I dont remember any helmet to helmet rule and you could hit the QB anywhere and anyway that you wanted. And there was no such thing as a defensless reciever.
But he isn't playing those teams, against the current teams he has been to the Super Bowl 8 times. That's E-I-G-H-T times. There isn't any QB from any era that accomplished that. You could argue in terms of legacy that Bradshaw and Montana still one up him for never losing a Super Bowl and doing it in the era of football that you prefer. But you may never see what he's accomplished again. And I feel like this would be less of a discussion if it was Brees or Manning with all the rings. People that are universally liked and not on the Patriots.

No he is the best of his era maybe.
He's almost lost as many Super Bowls as Kelly and won more than any other QB. Even his negatives put him in the company of the best to ever play. As sickening as that is.

Barkley entered the Jets game with the second worst career interception ratio. Only behind Peterman. It was a great win but Allen starts. I'm sure having Daboll on the sidelines now and two actual QBs in the room during the week has helped him a lot. Gotta give him a chance to go out there and show it. If he completely falters you might see Barkley again but as it stands this year is building towards the next. Barkley is not the future.
I thought you guys wanted to draft a QB? I guess you also expected him to be the best QB in the league as soon as he stepped on the field.
-
This is great and all, but why isn't Popeye Biscuit Benjamin cut along with him? He should've been cut the moment he stood there and watched the ball hit the ground instead of trying for it.

Chiefs. They play in the toughest division of the 3. But we're really splitting hairs here, all 3 will most likely be in the conference championship game. Question is really, who's the 4th best team?

41 points today and all those yards is going to hurt them in that quest for "worst offense in NFL history"..
Not to mention the tank. Don't forget the tank.

Barkley? Let's hear it for Dawkins. Now tied with Benjamin for TD catches this year.
And only weighs about 10 pounds more.

No. And Wallace was only so so. Thought Lewis was playing well before his sudden demotion. Like to see him worked back into the lineup.

They may be looking for a body, but not a disgusting fat body like Benjamin.

I'm mixed up. I really want to see Barkley as much as possible, and figure out what to make of Allen as fast as possible. We need to know if Allen is really the guy.
JMO but I'd just go with the hot hand in Barkley with Barkley and Allen having a mutual understanding that they may be getting shuffled the depth chart going forward around to get a sense of next year's Quarterback situation. Nothing negative about getting benched but ride a hot hand until it's over and see if the other dude rides a hot streak.
If we were in a playoff race I might agree but at 3-7 the only thing to play for is the future.

Pretty good showing for a rookie who signed 11 days ago.

I'd keep Barkley in a backup role no doubt. But Allen needs to play. Peterman can finally be cut and probably Anderson as well.

Out of football for 2 years. 18 picks and 7 fumbles in 11 games (6 starts). We just might have a competitor for Nate.

Beane: There is no tank.
McDemott: We're starting Matt Barkley.

I say we sign Tebow and go to the playoffs.

The fact that people are still willing to defend Peterman says it all about this board. A lot of people talk about the worst QB in league history, Peterman has the stats to put him in that argument, and at a time when offense dominates the league. It's pathetic. Mullins in San Fran stepped in and played. Peterman stepped in and failed. And while the jury is out on Allen because of the elbow, these games after the bye he needs to show some signs of life. Otherwise there might need to be another draft pick spent, another veteran signed. Shame too, the defense is great this year. With even a half way competent offense we'd be talking about playoffs again.

I think we should just sign and start a different QB every week from here on out. It's almost entertaining.

But sports is the place where fans typically side with Billionaire owners who look for handouts over their millionaire employees who actually risk physical harm for their money, and who have a much shorter window to make that money.
It's an odd situation that doesn't mirror how most people view other professions.That's because owners, like Pegula, are providing a source of entertainment for the people watching. Fans are acutely aware that most players are playing for money and have no loyalty to the team. They however, do have said loyalty and will continue to have said loyalty long after the player leaves or retires.
I also think you are painting with an extremely broad brush and siding with the owners is more like siding with keeping football around as opposed to not having football.
The millionaire employees are just that, millionaire employees playing a game. I think most people would kill to be able to play football and make millions doing it. They are choosing to play. They should understand the risk associated with playing before signing up. After all they've probably been playing their whole life. I'll tear my ACL right now for 6 million dollars.
The players are more than compensated for the "risk" they are taking. The truth is most trade workers face entirely more risk everyday and get compensated far less.

I think we win. Allen is a competitor and I think he's hungry after sitting around for more than a month.
