atlbillsfan1975 Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I think a lot of this is coach talk, however I don’t like how this reminds me of the Peterman fiasco, this was mentioned in the article. McDermott has some old school conservative coach beliefs. I hope he can move past them. Tolbert stunk, Gore isn’t as bad as Tolbert but he is old and no where near as explosive as Singletary. Personally Singletary is in first and often. Yeldon is in as a passing option. Gore can spell Singletary for a series in the first half and second half if needed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's going to have a huge game and I for one am going to enjoy it! First real Bills starter (non kicker) I have started in YEARS... I think the last one was Travis Henry for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayoffsPlease Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Based on the combination of carries and results, I would say Josh Allen is the Bills RB1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like QB's, to stop any RB you need to control the line and tackle well. Not much difference in preparation because all teams use multiple backs during a game.

DCofNC Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 All I know is Singletary needs more touches. He took a ton of snaps, barely touched the ball and accounted for almost 100 yards. Daboll needs to adjust something there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefenseWins Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Agreed that Singletary should get more touches. However, keep in mind that he is a rookie. He is not used to playing 16 games in one season at this point in his career. A lot of rookies tend to "burn out" if used too much in their rookie seasons. Remember also that with preparing for the Combine he has not had a typical "offseason" to rest up either. All in all it is probably a good idea to ease him in slowly to the offense rather than to risk burning him out too quickly. That is especially true if we want him to be ready for a playoff game or two... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Anyone paying attention knows that this is Singletary’s job. They might ease him into it but it’s very, very, very, very obvious that, from draft day, their plan was to hand him the keys. Gore will rotate in and probably even start but this isn’t going to be a 50/50 split. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially Yeldon as pass catching weapon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Otreply Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Good on SM for not telling anyone anything. Giving information to the sports news guys is not his job, and is counterproductive to the teams end goal, which is to win football games.. as a fan not knowing the specifics of what he is up to builds the anticipation for game day, makes it more fun.

Charlottebillsfan2 Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Singletary should get 15 -17 touches in this game. I can see him getting about 10 -12 rushes and 5-7 receptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's young and in exceptional physical shape, not sure we should be worrying about tiring him out. Edited September 12, 2019 by klos63 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Tip hand? One guy looked amazing and the other looks completely done. You don’t have to say anything about it.
