T master Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 I'd say he's all done he has something messed up in his neck which is why he failed the physical & he's a statue of a QB & he has made upward of $150 million so why would you want or need to go on & possibly put your future health in jeopardy hell i'd just kick back & enjoy my $150 Mill !! ? 1

(58.8%, 10 td to 21 int!, 65.7 qb rating). That’s freaking awful and may be the worst of any qb not named Peterman in the nfl. I can’t believe people are content with him because he’s friends with Josh and knows the playbook. and washed up Flacco’s numbers last year: 65.2%, 6 td, 5 int, 227 passing yards/ game, 85.1 qb rating. His worst is so far superior to Barkley’s best and oh yeah, he won a SB. We are keeping a 2 because they are nice instead of rolling with an aging 8. It makes no sense. Flacco doesn’t really seem like a team first guy at all. No thanks. I bet if he was able to play the entire year his stats would look much worse. 2

People are basing their Barkley disapproval off the last game he played in. Which was in the rain with the second team going against the Jets first team. Funny how after 2018 we didn’t hear anything about it, why? Because Matt had played great in a few games. You are right about him being a good locker room guy, supporting Josh, and good enough to win a few. Yeah that Jets game left a bad taste in my mouth. I get it that it was tough circumstances... but man was he brutal. Literally no arm strength at all. That was a tough watch. But everyone can have a bad day I guess. 1 1

Barkley is cheap, a great locker room guy who supports Josh Allen, good enough to survive a few games and is accepting of his role. I don't want Flacco but I think to say we have one of the best backup QB situations is a reach. It's basically based on 1 game Barkley had last year vs the Jets vs the entire rest of his career. He's not a terrible backup but a 3rd QB with upside or that's better is definitely not something I'd object to. Edited March 21, 2020 by HomeskillitMoorman 1

I'd be interested to hear if anyone could name 5 back up situations that are clearly better, excluding competitions like Chicago Can I use last year's rosters since this years aren't fully set 1.Saints 2.Titans 3. Broncos 4. Chargers 5.Panthers 1
KD in CA Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 There's no backup QB that's taking the Bills to a Super Bowl. If Allen goes down, so does the season. Therefore the most important job of the backup QB is to prepare and develop Allen. 1

So thats a no from me The Broncos have Driskel and Rypien. Nope Chargers. Yes. If you assume its Tyrod or a round 1 rookie. Panthers. Kyle Allen, a tie at best but Barkley has experience 1

Barkley has never been good enough to be washed. Flacco, even last year, had fair superior numbers to anything Barkley has ever done. By the time Flacco was benched it looked like he had completely given up. If he comes to the team and has to start for any length of time I will dread his Orton moment from his first snap until it happens. I expect a late round udfa qb to be brought in to compete and if they show any promise go to the ps. I don't think it is a position the Bills will be investing heavily in this year. 1 1
artmalibu Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 If he is looking to be the modern day Neil O'Donnell, I say go for it. If he wants a chance to compete then no.... 1

Ultimately, we are in trouble if Josh goes down. This is the case with most teams, but you need a guy who can at go at least .500 in limited playing time. I don’t have faith that Barkley could go 2-2 if he were called on to play four games. Barkley lacks the physical ability needed to be a competent backup. He has zero arm strength, he’s unable to push the ball downfield or make basic throws outside the numbers, has no pocket awareness, and poor ball security. You need a backup who can manage the game without losing it. Barkley’s physical limitations will cause you to lose games. 1
JTown Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 This is a hard no. Not sure that I want to read four pages of replies; so I apologize if my point was already discussed. When Flacco went to Denver, I remember there was a lot of drama made on sports talk radio after Flacco stated that he was not there to mentor the young QB's in Denver and that he was not interested in teaching or mentoring.

Charles Romes Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Would be a great backup. Flacco in his prime built his game on making throws only very few can make - just like Josh is doing. 1
