    I don't want to just use your post to make my point I've been wanting to make so take it for what it is worth.

     

    Statistics are a very strange beast.  I will comment on the "Singletary has a better YPC than ........................" statistic.

     

    Devin Singletary to date has a 4.9 YPC stat.

    Darek Henry has a 4.3 YPC stat this year with a 4.9 YPC stat for his entire career.

     

    If anyone want to say that Devin Singletary is as good of running back as Darek Henry because of a statistical number you need to

    re-evaluate how you watch football.

     

    I’m not brain dead I understand ypc isn’t the be all end all. I watch every snap of every game and Singletary imo has overall gotten more consistent yardage and looks better to me. I don’t see speed or explosion for Moss, and he has been stopped pretty constantly on those 3rd/4th and short runs. I know the OLine is a huge reason for that too.

     

    the one thing I’ll give Moss over Singletary is he looks more natural catching the ball

    I’m not sure who the better back is at this point and feel it’s really hard to judge with their snap counts and situations used. Devin seems to get more yards per carry but gets no attempts in the red zone where plays are more condensed. That’s tough running that they heavily rely on Moss for…. Like I said, I was looking forward to one guy getting more carries this week. The rotation they have is just not working. If Devin could get back to the way he played in his rookie year I think this board would be pretty satisfied, it’s possible he just needs carries.  Everyone talks about giving Allen attempts early to get in rhythm, what about the running backs who carry the ball less then 10 times a game? In close games it’s less then that, their attempts are blown up because of a few blowouts.

    I dont disagree with RB's getting in a rhythm. What drives me nuts is there has been several games this year where we ran the ball early and Devin was getting good chunks, then next drive gets subbed out for Zach. Why? I can understand the short yardage plays (which I dont think Moss has been very good at this year), but they will just switch RB's after a drive even if they are doing well, thats dumb IMO.

    I saw a thread about an article where we shouldnt blame Daboll... the fact we had 9 RB runs in a 6-9 game is completely on Daboll and is inexcusable. Especially when Allen was getting hammered all game.

    Breida has barely been given a chance and Moss is excellent in pass pro/receiving out of the back field.  
     

    Singletary could be good behind a better OL, but he just isn’t what we need. 

    Except the Zach Moss narrative of being better in pass pro, is marginally better if at all. He has also been awful in pass pro this year

    Id like to see Moss/Breida as our backs.  
     

    Breida on 1st/2nd down and Moss as the 3rd down/short yardage back.   
     

    Ive come to terms with that never happening, but a man can dream. 

    But yet Singletary has been more productive on less carries....

    I will watch the game again, but what's up with the RT for Jax not getting called for a false start!? I think I saw at least 5 of them.

    More than that, he was doing it all game. I still cant believe on the Jx 3rd down on the 5 yard line they didnt call the false start (luckily though since it was incomplete), but have the balls to call the Ike false start on that critical 4th down lmao

    If you line can’t block, there’s nothing to figure out. Josh is our only chance, and even then he can’t win them all by himself.

    Then go back to 4 spread WR or 5 empty backfield. Have one or two outlet wr's for pressure while other guys like Sanders are dragging defenders around field. We run quick outs but refuse to even run a slant

    If we can’t go the play action or rpo then scrap it. Go back to shotgun with a deep drop or roll out. 

    It baffles me how little we have designed rollouts for such a weapon like Josh... meanwhile you watch any other team with a mobile QB and they roll out a bunch. Go watch a Seattle game, its insane to me how little we do it

    Their right tackle was up early at least 5 times.  And on the 4th and 2, they were Offside, and somehow Boettger got the flag.  Instead of 1st and 10 at the 37, we punt from the 47.  

     

    The officials officially sucked.  The fix was in.

    I dont think the NFL goes "hey lets F this one team in particular" but I do believe there is a "fix" to keep games competitive. They dont want blow outs because people tune out. Seemed outside of the weird Boettger false start (meanwhile they missed the SUPER obvious 3rd down one Jags had on the 5 yard line) suddenly second half all the weird penalties were gone (unsportsmanlike suddenly was forgotten about).

    On the post-game show cower said Josh is doing too much. Josh needs to be reigned back in.

     

    Daboll needs to sit down down with Josh and have Josh do less and get back to basics

    Daboll needs to sit down with entire offense and figure out how to run the damn ball to take some pressure off it.... or call a quick slant... or maybe designed bootleg instead of doing the same drop back over and over with Josh facing pressure for all angles

    I get it.  It's hard to complete passes but it's not hard to fall forward and make it 2nd and 9 rather than running backwards and your oline gets a hold or you get hit from behind and fumble  or you get sacked and it's 2nd and 16.  Just hit your drop, pat the ball once maybe twice and then fall forward for a small game or run as far as you can without getting hit.  Teams will play lamar jackson honest in pass coverage because he'll run on them any and every down.

    If you are hitting a three step drop and then falling forward (into the free rushers running up the middle) you are still taking losses. You'd rather him just lose 2 yards each play and then punt? Bills should have been sacked 20 times this game if this is how we played

    To be fair josh had no faith in anyone blocking for him today, I really think he just got tired of being hit time and time again today. Really there are only so many times you can get rocked and get up without saying I'm done.

    This has been my point with Josh since his rookie year when media made huge deals out of hero ball. I think Josh mentally is strong enough to put team on his back late in a close game. I actually think he can mentally handle it when he is having an off game. The "frantic" josh comes when NO ONE around him is making a play and he starts that "well I have to do it all." For someone with such a competitive nature its a lot easier said than done to not start the hero ball.

    Josh had a bad game 100%. Oline failed him miserably, constantly dodging pressure up the middle. Huge WR drops on critical plays. 0 run game outside of well Allen. Pretty natural to start to force IMO

    Notice how Josh was rolling to his right towards the end? That’s because he had absolutely no faith in Dawkins who’s been highly overrated by the fan base for years now. You don’t win SB’s with him at LT. 

    no, its because if you have a choice you dont roll out to your left if you are right handed...... He started escaping early because he had no faith in the Oline and rightfully so, he couldnt even step up in pocket

    Josh holds the ball to long bad things happen.  Hit your drop and throw the ball or go fall forward for whatever positive gain you can get without getting hit to bad.  Running backwards 10 yards and taking a sack or fumbling or throwing a pick is creeping back in like his rookie year.

    Hard to do when most of the pressures are coming from 4 man rushes.... lots of defenders sitting in zones

    We need quick crossing patterns with more than just Beasley. He isn't 100% today. Not sure why we still have diggs and Sanders running deep routes with the pressure the jags are getting on Allen. 

    Because Daboll is grossly overrated and gets WAY too much credit for Allen's development. Media acts like Daboll started babysitting Josh after school in his in-home daycare feeding him spinach
