ProcessAccepted Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 This discussion is sooo disrespectful to a guy that has done and continues to do so much for this team. I would hate to see #22 in a different uniform, especially one from MA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Gun Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Love Fred but he has gotten slow. I think he is best in a straight line, dancing around and trying to out juke anybody anymore doesn't work. Wish he understood that as too many times he is easily wrapped up trying to make someone miss. When he has the ball, he needs to go in a straight line as fast as he can then get tackled, no juking allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Fred is also coming off an injury. There is no way that Fred is close to 100%. Let's see how he looks next season before judging how much he has left in the tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 No one on the team and few in the NFL Id rather in there on third down. There is your take away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Bills Fan Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Fred carries this team on his back at times, I have no issues with him CBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finn Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Freddy churned out some yards after contact today though. He may be slow but he's strong. And my #1 reason to get rid of this coaching staff is because of the misuse of players; no reason Mike Williams shouldn't be out there and no reason Goodwin isn't running fly routes off of play action and him and Sammy aren't running some screens a few times a game And Urbick was benched half the year. That was criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr1 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Brown's average 3.3 yards per carry this season. The o-line will make anyone look bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt in KC Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I have no problems with Fred. He's not an explosive young stud, but he gets the job done. I was thinking this is the first game since his injury that he looks "right" again. I suspect he'll be even better against Green Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braedenstearns Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 If the dumps and screens to Freddy, were thrown to Bryce, they would be fumbles. This! Totally agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, you post here enough to know there no time for that - Freddie is either the best back in the league at every given moment, or he's old, has slow legs and should be sent off to the glue factory For the record, I'll have my 22 on this weekend...

D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 LAMO at some of you!! 4.0 YPC on a team averaging 3.8 without him, 7.1 per reception, virtually same as the rest of the teams RBs 7.2, while coming of an injury. Spilling his guts for the team and being a leader, and all you can do is **** on him. IMO he played well against Denver. Some on here like PFF, FWIW he is a green at PLUS 5.7 and our second best performer this year on offense. I can only surmise that some are either dumb or trying to stir up ****! A guy like Fred doesn't deserve this crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bookie Man Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 It's time for Freddy to step into and contribute with a Kevin Faulk like role with this team. 3rd down and spot duty. That's a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi2000 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) It's time for Freddy to step into and contribute with a Kevin Faulk like role with this team. 3rd down and spot duty. That's a good thing. Fully expect Brown to start next season, with Fred getting about 5-7 touches per game on third down, spot duty like you said. That said, with this coaching staff anything is possible.... hell, maybe Marrone feels he game play some RG?

Heitz Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Thin air at Mile High. This is the truth, I'm still in Colorado and STILL can't breathe... Fully expect Brown to start next season, with Fred getting about 5-7 touches per game on third down, spot duty like you said. Not sure what everyone sees in Brown - enlighten me. From what I see he does the same thing that everyone was yelling at CJ for, trying to take it wide every play, instead of hitting the hole straight ahead...

I don't doubt that's the plan, but I wouldn't bet against Fred beating out the competition in preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the Denver game and several times he got into space and did that split second, stop and start to try and change direction. He could've easily ran straight through his opening and gained his 3-4-5 extra yards (like he used to do) but instead cost himself those extra yards by stupid juke attempts.
