wiseman3 Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 I think he'll play. You don't sprint around practice for no reason if you have a bad concussion.
wppete Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 I’d like to see Barkley have a good game and the win. 1

BuffaloFan68 Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 I don't get it. Let Josh rest & heal - Barkley will get us the victory and then Josh can come back after the bye week. Of course fans will be screaming for Barkley to start but that doesn't matter -We got this. Let's Go Buffalo!!!!!

prissythecat Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 From a radio update this morning, sounds like he has been pretty active in practice and now only needs the independent neuro guy to sign off on him playing. 1

I favor this prediction, good chap!
H2o Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) I think he is going to be available, but I believe they will keep him as the backup this week. I believe Barkley gets the start and Josh doesn't see the field until after the bye if things go as planned. Edited October 3, 2019 by H2o

Great way to ruin a young player.

McDermott: Josh, you took a nasty headshot last week and we need you for the long haul. Matt is going to start this game and you will be back after the bye. I know you cleared protocol, but you are the franchise at QB. We are just playing it safe. ^^^^Yes, that would just completely destroy his career if he were told anything like that.^^^^ 2
jethro_tull Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) If he is officially cleared medically you cannot deny him starting. not his decision, not mcd's decision but an official medical clearance. Edited October 3, 2019 by jethro_tull

eball Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Yup. Been running around and practicing the last two days...set to come out of the "protocol" by tomorrow and will be starting on Sunday.

Bad people management unless your goal is to lose your QB and your team. 1
