There goes our chances to win the Super bowl.. I know everyone who was anyone was counting on Barkley to be the SBMVP..

Oh well, not good for Barkley, but smart decision by the team.

He showed some good talent towards the end before getting injured. Didn’t get backup confidence but was pretty good against scrubs.
RE: Matt Barkley Released - fredtoast - 09-12-2018
I actually thought he was already gone.
RE: Matt Barkley Released - Bengal Dude - 09-13-2018
I guess his injury wasn't as bad as we thought.
RE: Matt Barkley Released - Bengalitis - 09-13-2018
so... how much $$$$ is his IR settlement. That's what I want to know.

I will let it go because I didn't know why we kept him after week 1 preseason.
I hope he does well but, to be honest he doesn't belong in the NFL. He has the HEART to play just not the skill set.
Look at his completion to TD ratio. PAY ME FOR BRINGING IN TALENT LIKE THAT MAN!
Sorry as an analyst, I call it like I see it.
GO BENGALS!

AGAIN look at his stats. He shouldn't be in the NFL!
GO BENGALS!

Made about as much sense as bringing in Hart

Insurance in case Driskel wasn't fully recovered from injury or in case Driskel was a flash in the pan last year?

I get that but Barkley ?
Their last three 3rd string/PS QB picks have been curious to say the least. Woodsie seems to have issues off field. Hackenberg is even worse than Barkley. I know if your 3rd string QB is in you're screwed anyways but....
You'd think they could find somebody that has a tiny bit of potential ?

As much of a nice offseason the general consensus believes we had (letting PA walk and hiring Pollack as his replacement, hiring van pelt, acquiring Cordy Glenn, letting Bodine walk, etc)... The signings of Hart, Barkley and picking up Og's option were... Well, frankly they were idiotic moves.
Barkley and (especially) Hart have no business being on any NFL roster, in any capacity. I know a bunch of us were hoping Pollack could save Og but with the training camp Og had, that's clearly not happening.

Vet familiar with the system, standard move.
