Lol, no. He’s been great
- sbroads24


He had a couple pretty good years in Miami too which people seem to forget. So he was a bit more error prone than most, and he didn't know the teams in the division, but he's always been a good talent.

The dead cap for cutting Wentz next year is $59,220,611
- jcragcrumple

Yikes. Well he isn't going to be on their roster next year no matter what.

Why would the 49ers give up a 1st round pick for Darnold?
- kingcong39

Because it's a mid-1st and they will probably move on from Jimmy G and need a QB? Okay a 2nd.

Hope no other team steals him 🤔

Kinda a "larry" role for barkley as a back up

- Boss34


I’d LOVE to bring back Fitz to back up Allen
He might still want somewhere he has a chance to play though

Yeah he always kinda sucked against Buffalo so I think a lot of Bills fans had a warped view of him but mostly everyone around the league knew he’d take that job from
Mariota and not give it back if given the opportunity

I just can't imagine a scenario where Darnold is worth a 1st round pick right now.

Who's fitz? You and these nicknames 🤔



Barkley has probably helped allen along the way, he did enough today to not be replaced next season.

Look like a professional and Barkley did

We miss the playoffs with Barkley & pick in the top10..... He blows

I’d feel much more comfortable with a QB we could still win games with if Allen gets hurt

Best case scenario is Steelers win and we play them next week. Obviously cant sleep on Indy but think Allen will light it up.

Still not scared to play anyone but will be rooting for the steelers this week

Yeah that would be really nice. I think the Browns are going to win though. Derek Henry went for 250 last night and is going to be in a slugfest against the Ravens. Even if the Titans make it through, I wonder how much he's going to have left in the tank after a 2000 yard season. So I think if I had to pick between Ravens and Titans, I want the Titans

How many teams go to the playoffs with their backup playing the majority of games? The only ones that do are rookies and unknowns (i.e. the Kurt Warners of the world) who then become starters anyway. Veteran backups are backups for a reason. They can win you 3 or 4 games if you're really lucky but that's about it. If you have to lean on them for more than that, your season was most likely toast anyway.

If Barkley is helping Josh and it sure sounds like he has, then why not bring him back for another year, try and keep Allen as comfortable as possible especially if we lose Daboll.

I'm not opposed to the idea, but if Allen is really an MVP candidate, he eventually needs to thrive no matter who his backup is.

Congrats ! Should be exciting.

My best friend is a Bills fan as well and the Bank branch location he is working at scheduled him to work this Saturday.

He’s trying to get it switched, or sounds like it may be a “sick” day for him haha.

Awesome. You're gonna have a great story for years. You're part of a very exclusive group.

Do some vocal warm-ups this week to increase your ability to get loud
