There is no reason. Not a single reason in existence to shelf Shady. Ivory can be dressed but as a 3 or in an emergency. It’s badically live speed preseason.

The one thing I noticed watching last weeks Jets game is how poorly Ivory & Murphy pass blocked. Shady can read defenses and has a sense for whose coming on the blitz. His ability to pick these defenders up is critical to giving Allen that extra second in the pocket to hit a play downfield. If McCoy can go he should definitely play. He remains by far Buffalo's most dangerous receiver out of the back field and his blitz pickup is heads & tails better then the other RB's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure as hell wouldn't trust him and Ford to make sure my franchise QB doesn't get blind sided in the pocket. Shouldn't you be thinking of critical facets of the game before talking about who should play with Allen?

Shouldn't you be thinking of critical facets of the game before talking about who should play with Allen? I’m not concerned. My guess is the coaches are smart enough to consider that. We also still have Demarco if it got real sideways. Allen plays like a maniac anyway. If you are worried about him getting hurt, get over it. It’s going to happen. He runs to much and takes on hits on purpose. I’d start Ford and give him the majority of the load with Murphy sprinkled in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t agree with you. I think playing McCoy is pointless and I’m not going to come off it. The reality is they should have traded him at the deadline and they didn’t. I didn’t want him traded but I was wrong. Now they have 3 meaningless games to see if they have a RB for 2019 on the roster. It really is that simple. The running game is the single most disappointing thing about 2018 and it’s time to look towards the future. Start now before the draft. Maybe we won’t need to waste a pick. If this is a rebuild and everyone was just signing up for pissing away an entire season, then let’s go. Nobody wanted to hear it when a few of us wanted to play Barkley and string together wins. It’s all about the future and the young guys...let’s see Ford and Murphy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have been watching this year it would be hard to think that’s Mccoy. And he is my favorite player on the team. I’m just being honest. He looks completely finished.

The running game is awful because the talent on the OL is so bad. Putting Ford and Murphy in as the primarty ball carriers won't make it any better and I am much more concerned about the duties in pass protection for Allen since he's by far the most important player on the team. You were wrong about Barkley and you are here as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
