I keep hoping youll rise up and prove your handle is not apt:) I found it funny hes worried about time - yet had time to type that. Its funny, dare i say even slightly ironic. The way you chose to waste your time however might be ironic, but not in the funny way... What's your issue?! Didn't miss a simple thing like that. My reply to you was that you wasted time even replying to my post. As for my handle being apt, very original, never heard that one before. Now go back to putting your hands back down your shorts.

I dont have an issue per se, rather you took my initial comment as an insult for some reason and felt you needed to defend youself....But in turn did the exact same thing you tired to come back at me with. Why else would you have even bothered to take your time, unless you felt slighted. I could have taken the 'no one cares about your FF team route, but we hear enough of that w the 550 crew. I was trying to laugh with you- not at you. The whole thing at this point is silly. Did you think we were just going to quote each other back and forth? "You wasted time" "No you wasted time" "NO YOU WASTED TIME" Personally, id rather not waste the time- but here we are...wasting everyones time.

McCoy would be silly to go to New England, where he'd be behind Michel, the kid they drafted this year, James White, etc. Croom goes to IR, so it's actually four tight ends. And a fullback who plays all four special teams units and 20% of offensive snaps is worth more to the roster than a jump ball receiver who'd get 3 targets a game.

I knew something was fishy when he wasn't on the leadership council after being a C last year. Initially I'm not happy about it at all. But this has to mean they think Singletary is that good and don't want touches taken away from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hunch is that 99% of players value money/PT over rings. It's human nature. We as fans like to believe that these men live and die for the team they're currently a member of, but it simply isn't reality. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go back to 2017 with Eric Wood and Richie Incognito on the line LeSean McCoy was the leading rusher AND the leading receiver with nearly 1600 combined yards with 287 carries, 59 receptions. Even with Wood and Incognito that line still had Mills, Ducasse, Miller and really didn't rank all that high. Fast forward to 2018 with McCoy getting 161 attempts, 34 receptions and usually always throwing to catch up from being behind in points and even then the team didn't target McCoy very often. McCoy still had a 73.9 catch percentage with was best among all Bills receivers with more then 10 receptions. This behind one of the worst O lines in the league. The only thing I can think of is that the Bills want to give Singletary every chance to show he can do in the NFL want he did in college. After what he did in the preseason I just don't see him being as elusive or as fast as McCoy. I seem to be in the minority on this. I only hope this offensive coaching staff knows what they are doing or this season could flush rather quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of doubt there is any room at RB on the Pats for Shady, or if they would even want him. They don't need any motivation to beat us twice since they typically don't have a problem with that; can't wait until that changes.

I only hope this offensive coaching staff knows what they are doing or this season could flush rather quickly. I think Singletary is lacking speed as well..........he had some miscalculations running the ball in preseason that were concerning.........he will need to adjust and learn the situations where he needs to fall forward instead of trying to make a move to get away and ends leaving yardage on the table. I had him as the top RB in the draft but still didn't think he was good value where they picked him in round 3.........it just seemed like a lousy draft class. I am hoping for Bills-career-Travis-Henry like ypa around league average at 4.2 or so. If he does better and holds onto the football I will be pleasantly surprised. He looks solid as a receiver which was also an unknown. But McCoy has just produced a well sub-league-average ypa the past two years............he is like a lot of players that get older........they look good in flashes but can't do it consistently. The excuses about OL play are understandable but I mean a season of 3.2 ypa from a scat back is WOEFUL. We heard the same excuses for about the last 5 years of Thurman Thomas being in Buffalo. He was always just a little nicked up or needed just a little more blocking or more effective downfield passing game to be like his old self.........it sounded good but wasn't true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
