LEBills Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Barkley is a great QB2. Def no threat to Allen, more than ok with his role, and has been a guy who can win a few games and not throw never ending interceptions. plus he really seems to be a good teammate, a team first guy and he and Allen seem to really like each other and have fun with each other. Like when Josh finally started following him on Instagram lol: https://mobile.twitter.com/BradleyGelber/status/1075846141634330625/photo/1?ref_src=twsrc^tfw|twcamp^tweetembed&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fd-4092644811321900828.ampproject.net%2F1812131718380%2Fframe.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Love this. Showed enough to back up or start in spots if needed. Cap question. Does it all hit next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d also like someone a little better than Barkley, but we could do worse (as we’ve seen). That's what your development guy is for. Anderson signs on as a coach and we draft or pickup a young QB that needs time to develop with a big upside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say re-sign Anderson to a similar deal and focus on other areas going forward. Anderson should only be brought back in a coaching position if they feel he really helps Allen. He is not worth waiting cap space and a roster spot on to just be a mentor. Let him "retire" and give him a coaching/mentor position. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was new to my profession, the old-timers mentored me. As I aged, I became a mentor for the youngsters. i just wanted to go with the seinfeld reference It just seems that's the big thing. Every QB signed or considered was thought of as a mentor. The assumption is that they are all good mentors , they get all the praise, no criticism, unlike the actual coaches. 1 hour ago, FeelingOnYouboty said: Hope we keep Derek Anderson too Why?

The Now Moment Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I like Matt. I think he is the perfect process player. If you watch Allen's sneak, he jumps up and down in celebration. That's the kind of support I want from my backup QB. Plus he played well in his only game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also get along which is absolutely necessary for team chemistry. Interchangeable? why would you risk it?

transient Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Didn’t read through the whole thread but I gotta believe this is because no one, and I mean NO ONE... ok, except maybe Walter White... cooks a better meth in Bills royal blue than Jesse “Matt Barkley” Pinkman.

Congrats Matt I am glad you inked a new deal with the Bills. I’m not anti the move or anything.... just surprised by the reactions. He’s a fine enough backup qb. I just like to leave some room to get even more excited about guys that will hopefully take a snap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the contract is structured so we can cut ties if and when there's an upgrade we prefer. In a perfect world Barkley collects his paycheck holding a clipboard for two years. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
