PUNT750 Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Matt Barkley was great! His play showed that we DO have an offense when it is executed correctly. Josh needs to play out the season. Not only for him to grow as an NFL QB but for the Bill's coaches and management to determine what they really have from the 7th pick in the draft. GO BILLS!
fergie's ire Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 While I agree with the sentiment, from what I read, that is not quite what McDermott said. He said IF Allen is healthy. That means, whether he is healthy or not, they can say, "in order not to risk his long term health, we have decided it would be best to continue resting Josh." 2
transplantbillsfan Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Misleading title. Allen hasn't been named the starter yet.
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 jags D will come to play. they decide allen is 100% ready then yes, I would like to see him out there. just hope he isn't punished and aggravates that shoulder?

Sprained.Elbow was the injury- Josh learns to get rid of ball and be accurate, Josh’s risk of injury decreases- simple as that. 1
Formerly Allan in MD Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 This thread is a like a bad Punt. Doesn't do much for you. 2

Nonsense that he needs to start. Did Mahomes need to start as a rookie? EDIT: Oh, it hasn't been decided? Horrible thread, then. Edited November 13, 2018 by Thurman#1 1

Green Lightning Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Thread fail. I'm gonna go and read the six "Peterman is released" threads instead. 1

Bob in STL Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 The decision on who starts will be made next week. Bye week now.

You're right, of course. I would be very surprised if Allen isn't healthy though. He's been throwing the ball for over a week and he's got an extra week now to get back in the swing.
Bookie Man Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 I wanted to see the Allen vs Ramsey battle.
SlamnSam Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Bad decision. I would stick with the better QB and Barkley is years ahead of Allen . Another dumb move by this management team . Winners stick with processes that work and Allen sure has not been the answer. 3
billsredneck1 Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 i'm sure the locker room will have a huge say in who starts. i bet barkley starts until they have another loss....at least I hope so...

Same thing I got from what McDermott said 5 hours ago, TigerJ said: You're right, of course. I would be very surprised if Allen isn't healthy though. He's been throwing the ball for over a week and he's got an extra week now to get back in the swing. Yeah but “anything” could give him a setback. I feel like McDermott was basically saying that because he plans to start Barkley and use Allen’s elbow as an excuse. I mean you never know but unless McBeane is tanking you have to go with Barkley until he falters. The game plan was for Allen to sit anyway but I also think now that he started he should continue. So once Barkley does falter Allen should be immediately put back in. I believe Barkley only earned himself one more start.
billsbackto81 Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 I would let Josh sit another week fully healed to play the Fins. One more game won't matter. Jags are more than likely gonna get smoked by Pittsburgh who is playing very well right now. They'll be out of the hunt and angry by the time they get to Buffalo and take it out on our rookie QB. Josh will be anxious and try to do too much, especially against Ramsey who said some pretty foul things about him and hasn't really backed up anything. Then again, if your franchise QB can't handle adversity is he really the answer? Iron sharpens iron, right? Personally I'd sit him one more game.
