    Seeing a lot more folks picking the Ravens over the Bills this morning. I'm seeing very few favoring the Bills. Seems like the 'experts' are expecting it to be the one upset of the weekend.

     

    Hopefully we'll use that as some motivation.

     

     

    I think people underrate the Colts and saw the Bills win a close one.

     

    The Colts were a really good team this year. I think more of the Bills after beating them. The media seems to disagree with me.

    The Freeman signing has all the markings of improving next year's running game. Introduce him to a positive, winning culture, hopefully making him hungry to be a part of it (while the Bills steam roll to the Super Bowl!). Get him into our state of the art facilities, to get him healthy and in shape. 

     

    In other words, get his mind and body right by August, and Devonta is on his way to being Comeback Player of the Year in 2021.

     

    I'd be stunned if they tried playing him in the next few weeks.

     

    Optimistic I like it. Freeman looks shot to me. Slow and broken. Hopefully you are right and I am wrong.

    I remember him losing a fumble last year against Cincinnati but I don't remember the fumble this year. It happened against Tennessee but I don't remember it at all, he didn't lose the ball on that one at least. 

     

    ProFootballReference has a fumble this year against Tenn. I don't remember it offhand either. It wasn't lost though, so one fumbled lost in Bills career.

     

  4. TJ Yeldon's Bills career:

     

    4.9 yards per attempt and 10.4 yards per reception. 6.8 yards per touch.

     

    27 rushes, 127 yards. 14 receptions, 146 yards receiving. 2 fumbles (obviously not great), and 1 TD.

     

    I posted this in the Freeman thread but it probably belongs here. Yeldon is obviously not a world beater, but come on. He hasn't been bad here in his limited snaps. I'll accept fumbles as an argument, but it's too flukey for me.

    what’s that saying? “There are lies, damn lies, and statistics.”

     

    Yeldon seems pretty good at running through big holes or running in space. He seems to be really bad at running through contact, and it seems like a stiff breeze will knock him down. I would be curious to see his “yards after contact” stats, but not sure he has had enough carries for anyone to keep those.

     

    40 touches just isn't enough for people here to get out their pitchforks. 'Bag of donuts' and all that.

     

    It's crazy.
