Barkley showed once again he is a poised QB with good skills, who knows the playbook, the personnel, and how to win … Great decision by Beane to bring him back to Buffalo… Keenum will need a couple standout preseason halves to displace him…

I don't know about that. Keenum played mostly against the Colts 1st framers while Barkley played against the 3rd framers. Let's not get carried away here. Barkley isn't very good and Keenum should be serviceable if Allen can't play. 

 

Fact is the offense will be in bog trouble if Allen is out for any substantial amount if time. The defense will probably have to win the games.

Khalil Shakir looked good. Liked what I saw from both rookie corners. Matt Barkley is a legend

[Since1981]

Barkley has one pass play, drift over right 7-15 yards. Josh likes his help and company. Josh goes down and the team is 50/50 in any given game

[Captain Caveman]

Keenum definitely needs to show better in the next couple weeks.

 

Other thoughts - 

 

Prince Emili really helped himself, he's this year's Justin Zimmer. 

So did Isiah Hodgins, although mostly against practice squad competition.

Has anyone done that to Nelson before?  That was impressive.

Think OJ Howard might be in trouble?  Seems odd to see him in this late.  Could he possibly get beat out by Sweeney?

Maybe.  They worked Morris in at FB too.  So they’re checking things out there.

I like Emili. I hope he sticks around. PS?

[Captain Caveman]

If he doesn't get picked up by someone else I think he's definitely PS material

I think that Tim Settle is going to have a tremendous impact on the team.

 

I know it's only one game, but he could be very important for us.

To me, on first blush, it's Kingsley Jonathan #59 that made a case for his speed move. It was special enough that he kept winning on it vs whoever he was up against  which is all you can ask.

 

Anyway, before the rewatch, to me the boys that really showed out:

- Bail Inspector #54

- Khalil Shakir #10

- Rahim Blackshear #35

The other thing I took from this game is there are 6 or 7 guys on the Bills 2022 camp roster that won't make the Bills final 53 but will have an NFL career. This roster is absurdly deep with realistic NFL talent.

I think they’re a little better than that if Josh goes down there just not a Super Bowl contender

Barkley>Keenum

Keenum was playing against the starters. They both suck, but cut him some slack.

Just make the trade ask questions later.

Bryant is this years Zimmer for me.

One of my very good friends is a huge Washington fan and he was raving about Settle when we picked him up. He didn’t get a lot of PT there but when he did, he was apparently very disruptive.

Tim Settle is going to be a problem.
