Dang!   Who called this in the backup QB thread?  They should take a bow.

 

I wanted someone like Jacoby Brissett, but when I saw the contract he got I backed out of the room and shut the door very quietly

 

I was one.  I wanted a 2-year contract, but that's ok.

He won games for his last team is Young. This is actually a guy that could stick around for a little while.

I think many predicted Allen as Allen’s backup years ago.

I think he could totally stick around. We could always extend him. Let’s see what he looks like because case didn’t look that great call it an audition year.

I’d rather an old dude like Fitz. help Josh see things he can’t see. Fitz made a career out of nothing of an arm. Tells you he had to be thinking…. Seen everything. 

Josh Allen is veteran it off that I don’t think he needs this anymore

Exactly, I rather have Josh helping Kyle.  It will keep Josh's attention to detail as he does.

They both can keep discussing what Jordan has been teaching and preaching.

No he didn’t. He was 0-2 last year. He gets worse the more he plays. He is the interchangeable backup nfl qb who has no real special qualities except “being good in the lockerroom.”  I hope that draft/ sign  a development guy

By last team I mean Carolina not Texas

 

I should’ve said that

I'm sorry to laugh but on the Houston Texans.  They couldn't even tank right.

I almost added that to my post.  

 

Yes.  Yes they do.

Like getting  a younger backup who maybe can stick around a few years or more.

Looking back at a Kyle Allen scouting report, the "Allen" similarities don't end with the letters on the jersey:

STRENGTHS: There’s a reason why he was a top recruit coming out of high school: his arm. Allen possesses a strong arm and is capable of making any throw. 

 

WEAKNESSES: Everything Allen needs to work on is between his ears.....it’s all mental.

Terrible signing. If Josh goes down were  finished. I would have taken Brissett or brought Kennum back

"Compete"?  with whom?

Remember how certain you were a certain QB with a sub 60% completion percentage in a weak collegiate conference would never make it!   I remember.

Keenum signed with the Texans for 2 years, $6.25M, $4M guaranteed.  Cap hit this season $2.8M.  Unclear if we offered him that, and he preferred to go south.

 

Brissett signed with the Commanders for 1 year, $8M.  Too rich for a backup QB with the Bills current cap situation.
