But assuming Allen is 100%, they do need to see him play in live action. See if he’s learned anything going forward. Barkley will be here in case of injury and hopefully going forward into 2019. I felt much the same way. I understand the importance of getting Allen game experience , but I also understand the importance of good QB play. I'm a huge Josh Allen fan and for Barkley to have me torn between the two of them starting kinda caught me by surprise.

I'd say the drought on good offensive plays is effecting a lot of people this way. 1
billsredneck1 Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 (edited) i'm still on the give barkley another game train....why you ask? because i want an entertaining game with a good chance to win beyond the typical 1st qtr. i want to win!...period. we have last year's playoff opponent....who beat us with 10 pts.....coming to our house to get their smack back on track....and we wanna throw allen into that? do we wanna see another 15 yd. total from shady?....and a constant blitz? you people are nuts or just can't see beyond next sunday. the fans are to blame for ruining qbs in buffalo. seriously....jp / edwards /tuel....even throw levi brown in there. each one showed flashes, but God forbid one bad game and it's torches and pitchforks. the media climbs aboard and then it's death row. a lot of you were for taking barkley at 8 a few years back. he's had some 300 yd games and that's something we pray to maybe see once a year. that' pathetic. so let's bench barkley and he, aj and nate can be the poster boys to deter free agents from coming here, even to back up. how about we just quit screwing with guys careers and it's not gonna make a difference with one more game going to barkley. would you all rather see allen get punished? or does any kind of logic kick in and try to find a more favorable situation to start him. besides, if we lose one more we're done so he's likely to get enough games to close out the season. please change the mantra from "the process" to "common damn sense".

I made my mistake and owned up to it twice. But lemme guess, you're the type who is never going to let it go. Hey, what if Josh Allen is a BUST? Can you own up to that? He looks like it RIGHT NOW. In one game, Barkley out played Josh Allen, Nate Peterman, AND Derek Anderson. Barkley should start again. I wanna see if it was a fluke.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 It would be great if Mcd says all week “Allen will start when healthy” then on Sunday runs Barkley out there. Get the Jags thinking they will be seeing one guy and then see Barkley.

If you thought Peterman was going to be a great QB as you were posting over and over, I question how you understand the game. I'm not sold on Allen, but he certainly has a chance to be a good QB based on the skills he possesses. Starting Barkley would be nonsensical as he's shown himself to be an interception prone limited backup QB who can play a good game from time to time. He shouldn't start again and he won't because playing Allen is the right move for the future of the team as the youth movement has taken hold in earnest. Time to get the kid as many snaps as possible for the remainder of the 2018 season with the vision on 2019 and beyond. Matt FN Barkley? No! 3

He looks like the 2nd best rookie qb after Mayfield. The key word is rookie. Some people wouldn't know football if one hit them in the noggin. 1 1 1
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 “Hot” takes that sizzle into a soggy nothing burger <sigh>. Do we have a separate wall of infamy for all of those thread titles? ? never mind, too much bandwidth required for that. The Stadium Wall hosts well enough I suppose!

without a drought Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 Who is the interim head coach this week?
