I went 10 years back and listed all available backup QB's and a few that were briefly rostered. I mean , first of all you didn't have any criteria... Second of all he started his career as our backup here ... He did not win the job out of camp... So yes he started his bills career as a backup Edited August 7, 2023 by Buffalo716 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever. wrong. he played for the Bills 5 days in the preseason and saw considerable playing time against Detroit in a game played in Toronto after Kolb, Manuel and our depth was depleted. He had never seen the playbook and was just used as a body to play the position. easy to forget. trivial fact the bills had rostered the first 3 picks of that draft at that point and 5 of the top 10. leinert, mario williams, reggie bush, vince young, whitner. 32 minutes ago, Buffalo716 said: I mean , first of all you didn't have any criteria...

without a drought Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 If nothing else, this made me realize how bad Vince Young was. I thought he had a few good seasons, it never happened. I guess some highlights clouded my perception. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/Y/YounVi00.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rate your top 2 backup QB's you'd want behind Josh. If you want to do them as an entire ranking, be my guest. As part of the hypothetical, these QB's would be at their peak. 1) Kyle Allen 2) Matt Barkley 3) Davis Webb 4) Case Keenum 5) Mitch Trubisky 6) Derek Anderson 7) Nate "the GOAT" Peterman 😎 Joe Webb 9) EJ Manuel 10) Cardale Jones 11) Matt Cassell 12) Kevin Colb (edit: his name would matter if he didn't get his ass kicked by a rubber mat) 13) Matt Leinert 14) Vince Young 15) Honorary Buffalo Bills John Skelton For bonus points: how many games in a 4 game stretch do you think they could win? This is a terrible list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the exception of Vince Young. Who was 2012, my mistake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
