Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Saw an listing of the someones take on greatest backup QB's of all time. Not trying to debate the worthiness of any names on the list or not on the list but what was kind of surprising was out of the 25 names listed five had a connection to some extent with Buffalo. They were: James Harris, Doug Flutie (technically he was the backup) Todd Collins, Frank Reich, and Kelly Holcomb Their stardom as backup didn't necessarily occur when they were with the Bills but other teams. One ex Bill not on the list was Daryle Lamonica though he really didn't do very much as a backup. Another name missing from the list was George Blanda though seemed like whomever came up with this list didn't go back more than about 30 years. Also missing were the combo of Craig Morton and Roger Staubach, though hard there to decide who really was the starter vs backup. Another name on the list was Jeff Kemp, while he never played here, his father certainly did.

TAinLack. Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 that handoff by Barkley last night to Singletary bumps him up quite a bit! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProcessAccepted Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 I would have thought coming in and winning a SB would have gotten Foles and Hostetler on a list that included Todd Collins. On a side note when I saw the pic below my first reaction was I didn't know Woody Harrelson was a backup QB. 3 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
