He's a guy that, if needed, can get you on a string of W's. RE: Is Brandon Allen Still the Backup QB? - ochocincos - 05-02-2023 Some notable names still available in FA: - Carson Wentz - Matt Ryan - Teddy Bridgewater - Trevor Siemian Not sure if Wentz or Ryan would be interested being a backup, and Ryan might be too old and/or immobile for Taylor's liking, but all would be ok-or-better backups.

I wonder if we could persuade him to return for a backup role. I mean, Hey Mattie, you want to make a couple of mil sitting on the sidelines talking ball with Joe Burrow? How hard of a sell is that? They could even place a clause in the contract if Burrow gets hurt and he has to play more than 4 or 5 games, he gets more.

There are a couple other name QBs in those other leagues I think Macaroni is shit, always has been, always will be. He's now a 10 year vet in (a) professional leagues and his pocket awareness is still just awful, not to mention he still makes a bad decision here and there. They should've gotten a young guy in the lower rounds/UDFA and groomed him to be a career clipboard holder, ala Allen, Painter, Sorgi, etc. Hell, I'd take Drew Plitt back over Browning: I really don't see why people love him so much, he's worse than BA.

AJ McCarron .....so we can debate if he should start over Burrow. ![]() RE: Is Brandon Allen Still the Backup QB? - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 05-03-2023 (05-03-2023, 11:13 AM)PhilHos Wrote: I'm actually glad to hear this! Yeah, doesn't hurt my feelings anyway. Siemian is better than Allen and I liked Browning's pocket awareness better than Allen's in TC and in the Preseason last year and Browning can run and throw on the run and fits this Offense more.

I said that I would pass on those players and then said that Trevor Siemien would be my choice. Looks like Duke Tobin felt the same way.

Not a chance, Siemian has over 30 starts in the NFL and has a working relationship with our OC. He is also known to be very good at helping with film and preparing QB1 for gameday. No way they would feel more comfortable with Browning going into a real game over Siemian.

It wouldn't matter if McCarron was a good backup QB, I don't think he'd ever return to the Bengals after he filed that grievance against the Bengals to count his rookie year and get to be a FA sooner. I'd imagine the Bengals FO wouldn't want him on their team again after that. Not to mention what he was quoted after winning the grievance... Quote:...it's just awesome just to be free now and to hopefully get that opportunity and be able to compete somewhere. That's all I've ever wanted. I'm just super excited. Just really excited that I get that opportunity now and I just can't wait to just showcase what I can do and show a team that I can lead a team and win ballgames.https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/22456899/aj-mccarron-wins-grievance-cincinnati-bengals-unrestricted-free-agent He basically didn't want to be a backup and wanted to have an opportunity to start instead, didn't matter if he had to take lower money. So he's likely going to stay in one of the other leagues where he gets that opportunity.

Yet Browning knows the offense. No question Siemian has more experience RE: Is Brandon Allen Still the Backup QB? - Garrus - 05-04-2023 (05-04-2023, 11:58 AM)Soonerpeace Wrote: Yet Browning knows the offense.

Siemian would have to really look awful and Browning would have to play at a much higher level than he has in the past. |
