Take a page from the NHL. When a goalie is on a shutout streak, you ride him. Same here. Let Barkley play till he loses one. It won't hurt Allen to watch some good veteran QB play for a while.  Besides you owe it to the locker room. If you mean it when you say you aren't tanking, then prove it.

Not sure how much of Sunday is attributable to Barkley, but we should try to not let our QB starvation cloud judgment once we finally see competency. I'm really curious as to what your definition is of a "good veteran" as Barkley was drafted in 2013 and has been very hot garbage, outside of sunday. 

 

The reality is we are 3-7. Are you really still trying to win out or go 5-1 the rest of the way to make the playoffs? How much of what you saw Sunday was actually Barkley and do you think he'll continue to play that way once defenses have time to prepare and scheme for him? In my mind, the season is all but over and the only benefit to the team now is to develop Allen and prepare for the future. Will Allen really develop more by being on the bench as opposed to taking real game reps? You can prove to a locker room you aren't tanking regardless of the outcome of the last six games. You just need to compete and/or believe in the QB leading the offense. It seems to be the case that the players believe in Allen and will support him, so starting him wouldn't lose the locker room in my mind.

Why These Young Bills are Ready to Make a Major Impact after the Bye Week

Sit back, for a second, and imagine that you’re building a house. While it’s only natural to think about the finished product, you must first lay a strong foundation, a base that will help your home stand tall through any adversity it may encounter.

 

Though the actual ‘home’ is far from completion, the base that head coach Sean McDermott and general manager Brandon Beane have built in Buffalo is rock solid, a foundation on which the duo hope to build a mansion.

 

It’s taken McDermott and Beane less than two years to completely revamp the Bills’ roster in their image. Only 12 players on Buffalo’s current 53-man roster were on the team when the two executives arrived in the 2017 offseason.

 

Included in the duo’s roster overhaul was a youth movement, a concerted effort to get younger at just about every single position. Over the past 20 months, the Bills have acquired franchise players at quarterback, linebacker, and cornerback among other key positions - establishing a young core that Buffalo hopes will ultimately transform the team into a perennial contender.

I honestly thought that with McCown they would mop the floor with us. 

 

That is really a hilarious statement, and shows you haven't watched the Bills' defense at all this year.  Since the 1st half of the Chargers game no QB (except maybe Luck) has performed well against Buffalo, and all of them are better QBs than McCown.  Buffalo has lost football games because of horrid offense and ST play.  Period.  If you believed the Jets would win last week -- as most sane adults did -- it wasn't because you thought McCown would carve the Bills up, but because the Jets would eat Barkley alive.

wait.. really? with mccown? in that offense? against our defense? need i say more?

I thought the Jets had a better chance with McCown honestly. Darnold has looked like a rookie the last few weeks and this defense would have eaten him alive. McCown has seen more, thought he could handle more.

 

Turns out the both suck

Zay made the pff week 10 team of the week. Kid has 0 drops out of 40 catchable targets, after having bone of the worse drop ratios last year. Salute to him for clearly improving many facets of his game - route running, catching and awareness. He has legit #2 wr written all over him , possibly a 1b WR.
