K D Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 It will be fine. If Tua gets knocked unconscious they will just say his back hurts and he will be back out there the next series anyways. 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, I am inspired to go watch a 'Little Rascals' original. 🤔 That's Mike 'Ribs of Titanium' White to YOU, mister. 🤨 * 😁 Edited August 8, 2023 by Ridgewaycynic2013 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm Spartacus Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Isn't there anybody out there better than K. Allen and Barkley? Beane should consider drafting a mid round QB to groom as a above average backup to Josh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beane should consider drafting a mid round QB to groom as a above average backup to Josh. At this point of the off-season, no. Those cupboards are pretty bare. There's a couple guys people have "heard of" such as Carson Wentz or Matt Ryan, but neither are a likely answer. Beane did draft a QB in the 5th a few years back. Jake Fromm. That...didn't work out so well. At this point of the off season the most likely choices for the Bills if they feel they need an upgrade would be either a trade or to watch the waiver wire and see if anyone comes available. In the case of a trade, finding a quality backup that has a contract they can work with becomes an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chiefs had Chad Henne for the last two years and he played well in injury mop-up duty. He won that playoff game against the Browns two years ago. I liked the Bills situation the last two years much more than this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevewin Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 A new backup QB would ideally be someone who brings something to the QB room as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 He would have been a huge upgrade over what we have. Wonder how much he got 14 minutes ago, FrenchConnection said: They signed Trevor Siemian this off season, but last year it was Jake Browning.

I liked the Bills situation the last two years much more than this year. Let’s settle down the Henne played well. He had 23 yards on 7 attempts. But he didn’t completely crap himself I guess. But that easily could have cost them a SB. I just don’t get why these teams settle on backups. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsGuyInMalta Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 I wouldn't be surprised if the Bills put in a waiver claim for Chris Streveler who was released by the Jets yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
