They (and our 3rd string) beat Miami in 2020 by like 30 points, in that game they had to win to get to the playoffs 1 hour ago, Royale with Cheese said: The Bills second string would win the AFC South Edited August 15, 2022 by YoloinOhio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once MA gets acclimated, he will have a bunch of schemed punts in his arsenal. Sideline directional punts could net 55+ yards without a chance of a return. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everyone would. But once it's clear he has that kind of range, don't you think the opposing teams will keep a returner very deep? Some of those deep flat punts might be returned for a pretty good chunk of yards. He much better off taming that leg, when the situation demands it. I think he'll be fine with coaching.

Greg S Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I know its only preseason and Barkley did play against the Colts backups while Keenum played against their starters but did anyone feel like Barkley looked more comfortable out there. His decision making seemed quicker as he got rid of the ball faster. I wonder if Barkley can beat out Keenum for the backup start. If Josh doesn't play this Saturday I would like to see Barkley against the Broncos starters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keenum and Barkley came into the league at the same time and their comparative productivity is not even close. Keenum's career QB rating is 20 points higher than Barkley's, with a considerably larger data sample. He's just learning the offense. That's what preseason is for. Barkley will be around all year on the PS if needed in an emergency. He's Josh Allen's designated BFF -- and that's all we want him to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter goes to Tech, I watch the games and I was surprised when he wasn't drafted. We'll see how he does against Denver, but he could make things interesting in an already crowded backfield. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's Josh Allen's designated BFF -- and that's e -all we want him to be. e - I think you're correct about this, but the difference in play was startling. Keenum has been a successful backup - that is, he has performed as well as you can hope when a quality starter has gone down. But someone, perhaps in this thread, said that his success has been in classic west coast offenses and with different terminology, so it isn't necessarily the case that he can be as successful in Buffalo as he has been elsewhere. It's hard to know why he looked so bad on Saturday. He was missing throws that we all expect a quality veteran would make. He clearly seemed uncomfortable. After the game, he didn't say he played terribly, and he made no excuses. I kind of liked that. It was clear that he was frustrated, but his attitude seemed to say, "look, I go out and compete, I do my absolute best. That's what you got." Clearly he understood that his best on Saturday wasn't good enough, and I'm sure he went back to work the next day, listening to coaches, and working at getting himself comfortable in the offense. We often talk about comfort level, and the two backups showed us what it's all about on Saturday. Barkley knew what he was doing, completely. He was like all the other quality subs on the Bills - they came in and did their jobs, they fit in. Jaquan Johnson was the best example - the guy is just ready to fill in whenever called on. Barkley got it all - he ran the huddle, he ran things at the line, he maintained good pace, he could run the two-minute drill, he was just comfortable with all of it. The performance of the two also showed how complicated the QB's job is. A receiver can join the team in May and know what he's doing, mostly, by August. A lineman, too. It's not so easy for a QB. I'm anxious to see how Keenum looks this week, and next. He doesn't have to be perfect, but he needs to improve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - the backshoulder pick looked like a total miscommunication, and the other one was admittedly high, but it hit hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
