BillsFanForever19 Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 Hearing that Case Keenum is #3 on Houston's depth chart and that him being cut could cost the Bills their 3rd Round compensatory, I'd be surprised at this point if he isn't brought back on a Trade. Quote

They don't need to know certain things. Quote
Doc Brown Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 On the Bills broadcast it seemed Beane was making excuses for Kyle Allen mentioning how long it took Keenum to feel comfortable in the offensive system. I took it as a message to fans that he's our backup unless someone becomes available that is an obvious upgrade. My guess is nothing happens trade wise and Kyle Allen is your #2 going into the year. They may bring in a practice squad developmental QB to learn the offense while Barkley is on IR. On 8/28/2023 at 3:56 AM, Mike in Horseheads said: I'm sure Fitz would sign with the Bills if they asked Expand I doubt it. He's got a sweet gig with Amazon where he doesn't have to get hit on a weekly basis. Plus, he's so old he played with Bart Starr his rookie year. 1 1 Quote

Expand Even for pre-season games the announcers get sit downs with some key people in advance. Maybe they spoke to Beane. I doubt he expressed it quite in those terms as Miller put it but I can imagine Beane saying "Kyle has had some struggles from the start of camp" (which fits everything those who were there have said) and then something along the lines of "this game will be another chance for him to show us he has what it takes" which Miller then translates to "Beane thinks he doesn't have what it takes". I suspect that would be how it went down. If indeed the OP is right. I did not hear it on the DAZN broadcast but then I did not sit through half time I was loading the dishwasher and watering the garden 😄 Edited August 28, 2023 by GunnerBill 3 Quote
loedward22 Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 I can verify what the original poster said. I watched the same feed and heard it too. It was during commercial break and you could tell it was an accidental live mic. 5 6 Quote
GunnerBill Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 I mean whether he said it or not them being in on Lance kinda proves the point, right? I expect someone else to be on the Bills roster by the end of the week as a backup QB. Kyle Allen on the PS but possibly with him elevated week 1 to serve as the backup giving the new guy 2 full weeks to learn the offense. 1 1 Quote
Ayjent Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 Whether or not what Miller said can be corroborated from being from Beane, Kyle Allen is not good and Beane and the Bills staff I’m sure are looking at other options. There are options and better ones than Kyle Allen. The guy is a turnover machine and lacks both poise and presence. Quote

Johnnyp566 Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 (edited) Guy thought he was gonna stroll in here as Josh’s friend and coast to a cozy career backup job. This is why you don’t consult players, even the elite, on personnel decisions. Josh Allen is making a quarter of a billion dollars to play quarterback, not GM.
