Matt Barkley man. 

 

When the hell is he going to get some credit around here?

 

When he gets drafted in the first round

Excuse me?

 

 

I've been around long enough to have seen this on the field several times. No joke.

Barkley is looking great. Couldn't be happier with him as our backup.

DUKE >>>>>>> Zay.

Here’s a hot take I can get behind!

Barkley just looks like he gets it.

Not saying he's a great QB or anything, but he obviously has a grasp of what he's doing & what he's looking for out there.

 

Pretty much exactly what I want to see in a 2QB

I’m ready for Tyree, how about you? We’re good as long as Barkley stays healthy. No point in any more risk with a mishmash of talent and future bus drivers out there. Nothing wrong with driving a bus, but I don’t want it to run over our backup QB! 

My Draft kings team would say otherwise

Boettger's getting a lot of good work tonight.

 

Interesting that he got in ahead of Teller as the backup LG.

Duke Williams is impressive.  Going to be a tough decision for that #6 spot.

 

Na, it won’t. He had earned it, catches what he should and is an impressive blocker 

[Formerly Allan in MD]

Lacey looking good.

It seems like the Bills have a plan tonight:

 

*  Work on their run game with the starters in the 1st half.  That two minute drill at the end was a bonus.

 

*  In the 2nd half you let Barkley work on the passing game.  Hell, Barkley threw more then twice as many passes in the 3rd quarter as Allen threw in the entire first half.  The reason you do this is that Barkley won't be seeing the field (hopefully) much after tonight and the Bills have some tough decisions to make at WR.  And having a pro like Barkley throwing the ball means the WR's get a fair chance to show what they got and the Bills coaches get a true read of who they should keep.

 

I like how McD and company are handling this preseason.

Reminds me of Orton.  Not a bad thing....

[Freddie's Dead]

I was not a fan of Lacey Underall last year.  But he is making it very difficult for other LB's trying to make the team.  Dude can play.

Dropping passes and offensive PI penalties are usually a bad thing. Nice to see the catch held up though. 

What did he drop?  Nothing?  How many interference penalties?  None.

Yeldon and Duke stock way up after tonight. 

 

I have to think we keep 7 WRs now. 

Yeldon I don't think so. Great pass catcher. Poor runner.

[Augie]

Lacey seems to make plays. D Johnson dropped into coverage like a happy Mario Williams!

No way Yeldon makes it. Just no room.
