SouthernBills Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 1 minute ago, NoHuddleKelly12 said: C’mon Please. This is about upside versus ceiling. Not close. JA is off the charts with the former, and Bark bless his heart is a great caretaker who does well in situational spots. I like him too but pump the brakes a bit, as foils around here like to say. This is actually a reasonable point about perceived upside/ceiling vs. floor. JA's upside is based very little on production. Bark was a Tier-1 recruit, played well at a great school, and has been a reasonably competent NFL QB by all accounts. Is JA's ceiling high because he was a highly-touted recruit? Did he tear up low-level college FB like say Carson Wentz? Did he have insane numbers against lower level comp? Did he put all the doubters to bed by showing something different in his rookie NFL starts? No he was incredibly inaccurate and incredibly athletic, which is what the knock has always been. What is crazy about questioning terrible decisions that demonstrate all his weaknesses in the most important preseason game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Josh Johnson was on the Bills for a bit. It was the only clever thing Rex ever did was on the short week for TNF give each of his backups just one of the gameplans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyBillsFan Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Am I the only one impressed with Allen's sideline interview? I'm not talking about the boiler plate stuff I'm talking about his calling out his one bad pass of the half. He owned it and called it what it was "hero ball" and that he can't be doing dumb stuff like that. Like I said earlier, that terrible throw in a meaningless preseason games was the best thing that happened to Allen tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. But he has to make it there first. You have to technically be cut from the active roster to do that. If another team comes along and offers him a spot on the active roster at that point I believe they would get him since active roster > practice squad.

Were you making similar QB controversy barbs before tonight? After leading the league in pass attempts in preseason going into tonight, The Bills clearly were looking to establish the run game with their 1s. Look, it’s a great story to peddle that Bark should now be anointed as starter, but the bulk of where we’ve come from just doesn’t support that, sorry.
