He blows. He has no arm and will only get signed by a team if they are really desperate to add a QB to the roster.

ColoradoBills Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) Every year there are a number of teams that don't even have a decent QB1 let alone quality backups. The few quality QBs that have accepted the role of backup don't come cheap. It's a dice role when these guys are called up. Kyle Allen needs to put on his big boy pants and get his head right. It's one of the few things I want to watch in the preseason. Edited August 8, 2023 by ColoradoBills 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxum Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) 14 hours ago, The Jokeman said: Quick without google name the backups for Mahomes, Burrow and Hurts? The Ryan Fitzpatrick of his generation. Not yet on his 7th. I knew a fellow Harvard alumni of Ryan Fitzpatrick who has a professionally sewed patchwork jersey (none are China gate) with 1/8 of a jersey from each of the first 8 teams he played for. When I asked what he is going to do now that he has signed for 9th team his response was "Get a helmet?" Minnesota Vikings (2014–2017) New York Jets (2018) (PS only) New Orleans Saints (2018–2019) Carolina Panthers (2020) Denver Broncos (2021) Miami Dolphins (2022) Detroit Lions (2023–present) Edited August 9, 2023 by Limeaid added info 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to keep all the concerns straight I don't think we are panicking, it's just a concern Beane and McDermott may want to consider addressing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd give him a shot, he's a great guy off the field. A bit strange for him to practice wearing an Eagles helmet, Commanders jersey and Colts shorts though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuntieEm Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 4 hours ago, Mr. WEO said: man, i forgot this guy was still in the league. 6th team in 8 years One of the best jobs to have. Get decent oay and don't have to be in the line if fire taking hits just some spot duty much of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) 9 hours ago, I'm Spartacus said: 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. Bridgewater was the last safe clear upgrade, unfortunately. The list that remains all have questions marks when it comes to age and/or performance. Here's the entire list of Free Agents who are still available: Carson Wentz Matt Ryan Joe Flacco Chase Daniel Nick Foles Cam Newton Bryce Perkins EJ Perry Tim DeMorat Edited August 8, 2023 by BillsFanForever19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBills808 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 8 hours ago, C.Biscuit97 said: He would have been a huge upgrade over what we have. Wonder how much he got 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. 5/7 for 23 and a TD so let's not downplay it either. That drive started at their own 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Stonada Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 9 hours ago, Malazan said: There's also been reports that he's unpopular wherever he goes. Why bring that in here for a backup QB who isn't that much better? Wentz strikes me as someone very talented who chokes and makes boneheaded plays at the wrong time. A great backup QB is usually the opposite: not as physically gifted as great starting QBs, but mentally stable, like a coach on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Argos have Chaddy boy booked for the Grey Cup and the parade thereafter. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
