boyst Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) Because this is very objective we will specifically make it as in rank the best QB to backup Josh Allen. Rate your top 2 backup QB's you'd want behind Josh. If you want to do them as an entire ranking, be my guest. As part of the hypothetical, these QB's would be at their peak. 1) Kyle Allen 2) Matt Barkley 3) Davis Webb 4) Case Keenum 5) Mitch Trubisky 6) Derek Anderson 7) Nate "the GOAT" Peterman 😎 Joe Webb 9) EJ Manuel 10) Cardale Jones 11) Matt Cassell 12) Kevin Colb (edit: his name would matter if he didn't get his ass kicked by a rubber mat) 13) Matt Leinert 14) Vince Young 15) Honorary Buffalo Bills John Skelton For bonus points: how many games in a 4 game stretch do you think they could win?

maddenboy Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) 1) case keenum 2) matt leinert at least each has shown that he CAN be what a starting QB is supposed to be. Even though Leinert's was in college. For whatever reason, leinert didnt continue to develop it. Edited August 7, 2023 by maddenboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Says Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 First of all, its KOLB, not COLB. That's all I've got so far! Trubisky and Kyle Allen because their style pf play is similar to Josh's. The schedule is tough but with this roster, I think either could eke out 2 of 4 wins. If they had to play longer than that, the league would figure them out and the season would be sunk.

Aussie Joe Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Looking at this list, I’m not surprised that the Bills only criteria now for backup QB is “will you play for vet minimum?” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxum Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Davis Webb - team just seemed to function better with him. Mitch Trubisky - I think he has untapped potential. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I mean the 2 best by far were Orton and Fitz. I’m not sure I understand the list. It’s just any Bills backups lately or? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinceThe70s Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 16) Red Skelton Less seriously I'll go with Nate (the not so great) Peterman for purely selfish reasons - this site would be a hoot if it ever happened (again). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StHustle Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 You’re trippin saying “these QBs would be at their peak” then ranking Vince Young that low. Can’t be serious! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank is not going to quit his OC job and unretire to be backup QB even if it would pay more. Alex might. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
