Question for someone who has watched some practices. Who has looked better Barkley or Keenum?

Hope you're right about Keenum.  My concern with Josh is his unprotected running and leaping.

 

My point was more Keenum is as good a backup as almost any team has.  There are some teams that their starting QB is nothing special so an injury to him and bringing in the backup may make little difference. 

 

The Bills aren't one of those teams. If Allen gets hurt they are in trouble to some level but no more than if it were Rodgers, Brady, etc.  And don't think are in worse shape than Tampa, Green Bay are and can win games with Keenum when you factor in how strong the overall team is.  Could they go all the way without him, not likely but what team could with their backup.  It has happened, but usually some extenuating circumstance play into it.

 

And more importantly, who could they have signed instead as a definitively better backup?

Keenum spent a decent amount of time playing with the second stringers against starters in preseason games so it’s a little tougher to judge 

 

Nope. His best outing was against  Broncos, who had 20 starters in tee shirts.
