BringBackFergy Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 One of the most over rated backs in NFL history. The main attraction to Lynch was his "off kilter" personality with a few decent runs mixed in. Good luck Least Mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niagara Bill Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Lol, bitter? The guy was a great back. Unfortunately he got into some trouble in Buffalo and the Bills felt they had no choice but to ship him.... For a 4th rounder, a typical third rate move by Marv/Levy during their GM tenures. Great Back??????? really!!!!!! This guy was finished a year ago and failed to tell the Seahawks. Levy did more for the Bills than this ego nut job did, Levy is man with integrity, something Lynch cannot even spell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Bitterness means I actually thought he was a good back but we lost him. I never thought he was a good back. His accolades are a product of media hype and Seattle never having won **** in the history of their franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, it was the Buddy/Nix tandem that dealt him. After Chan/Gailey lobbied so hard for a water/bug, we had a very crowded back/field. The dynamic duo of Buddy and Nix made the deal to feature CJ/Spiller especially after Freddy/Jackson outperformed Beef Mo'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back to back to back to back seasons over 1200 yards rushing with two other 1000 yard rushings mixed in. CAREER average of 4.2 yards per carry with 74 TDs.

I think good and great RB's are worthy of the Hall of Fame...whereas, RB's who do their job and have 1000 yd seasons behind a massive O line get to ride off into the sunset and play X Box for their "retirement". Also, why is it such a monumental announcement that Least Mode is retiring (waiting) ....because his legacy is media driven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringBackFergy Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 You were first to argue my use of the word "good" so I opted to remain consistent. So yes, Least Mode had "good stats" but was a standard RB. How's that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Marshawn walked past me at an event at the Century Link Event Center in Seattle today, minutes before I got the text saying he was officially retired. I considered saying, "Go Bills!" but he looked both unhappy and in a hurry. He had an entourage of maybe 5 or 6 guys dressed in business casual with a couple cops trailing.

Wayne Arnold Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Nice stats but he's no HOFer. Of course he's a Hall of Famer. Marshawn played for about as long as any running back in the NFL should be playing and likely will be playing going forward considering the injuries players of that position suffer (especially to the head). He will absolutely be in Canton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringBackFergy Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Quality over quantity. Nahhhh, based on your standards, if you do your job in a mediocre fashion (but with a "chip on your shoulder" type persona), you get a call from Canton or at least media hounds asking for an interview because you are so "distant and misunderstood". He's a walking sideshow and the quicker people see through the rough exterior, the quicker we'll see his legend collapse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 One of the most over rated backs in NFL history. The main attraction to Lynch was his "off kilter" personality with a few decent runs mixed in. Good luck Least Mode. Them grapes got some pucker-power, eh? I would have loved to have Marshawn's 2011-2014 seasons with 1200, 1590, 1257, and 1306 yds rushing, 6 years in SEA at 4.4 ypc - in 2012 5 ypc. Tuck in 200-300 receiving yards and very low fumbles per touch and yeah, he can have whatever kind of personality he likes. "Money" Lynch. No. Bitterness means I actually thought he was a good back but we lost him. I never thought he was a good back. His accolades are a product of media hype and Seattle never having won **** in the history of their franchise. Then sorry, in a football sense you're just being silly. He was not mediocre, and he was good, with occasional flashes of greatness. And no, "good" does not mean "HOF" or "great", it means "good". Talented, productive player over a significant stretch of games; difference maker in the post-season. 6 years, >6000 yds in Seattle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
