Canadian Bills Fan Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'm pretty sure Karlos Williams has a spot locked up CBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Rice is just as good as shady and comes at bargain basement price. Should have gotten him in the first place I don't think so and the stats say otherwise........but I think it's a lot closer than a lot of people may think. If he is back to 2012 health, Rice is more likely to follow his blocks and avoid negative/zero runs and has always been a very savvy guy in the pass game too.

I don't know why there's a sense Shady just blows away Rice Rice 6 seasons 6180 rushing 3034 receiving 9214 total Shady 6 seasons 6792 rushing 2282 receiving 9074 total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fan of Shady's tendency to try to bounce it outside. Not sure Roman will care for it much after a while either. There were a couple plays Friday that were designed to run behind a pulling guard and the lane was there but Shady tried to take wide and got stopped cold. Not against making big plays in the run game but ground and pound implies a run game by design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even if Shady gets the (slight) nod, I think rice is a better between the tackles runner, which makes him better for our system Edited August 20, 2015 by JTSP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalover4life Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Wtf- are they forgetting to stretch? i was actually really disappointed in the way shady stretches. He fools around a lot during it talking to team mates and does half stretches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truth on hold Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) Chip Kelly is known for being way ahead on using analytics for his team and how it practices. Sleep cycle, eating habits and more are controlled. We may not have the same type of data the Eagles have for this so Im no sure the data is there. I know we are building an analytics team and monitoring practices I just dont know how much. Funny thing is with all his data and focus on nutrition and fitness, chips a little meatball Edited August 20, 2015 by JTSP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we are building an analytics team and monitoring practices I just dont know how much. Yeah building the data bases is key for each athelete but there are basic indicators such as hydration level that affect muscle performance. I am also pretty sure Oregon was one of the first teams to use this system when the comapnay was just starting.
