Big Gun Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 That guy needs to have about 25 touches a game. He looked dynamic earlier in the year and still didn't get touches, he looked great on his catch and run for TD yesterday and didn't get many touches after. Someone needs to be held accountable for him NOT getting more touches. His skill is what got Shady cut, right? it wasn't Gores skill. These coaches need to be held accountable for Devins lack of touches. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Agree it is time to feature Singletary at the No 1 RB. Not Gore. Gore has a role on this team just not as the feature back. on a side note can we put on of the ST only players on the bench and actually activate all out WRs at once. Or put Lee Smith on the Bench and start moving away from the walking Penalty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Maybe he can't beat out a 36 yo RB and if that's the case he needs to be 3rd string behind the useless Yeldon. I have a gut feeling he is fumbling the ball in practice and that is why he isn't getting the carries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCOrange Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 How many RBs in the NFL even get 25 touches per game in today's league? That's an insane number for a guy that the coaching staff clearly doesn't trust to be the #1 guy yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The opponent thought we would run...we baffled them!!!! OOPS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artem Lipatov Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 he was 6+ ypc yesterday, made a beautiful TD and they still continued to play struggling pass in windy weather. I can't understand it. Maybe they want to adapt him for NFL hits slowly? In 2nd half defenders are tired and hits are weaker. But he received injury because he was freezed waiting for his next snap.

Idk if he doesn’t trust the younger backs or what but he’s been using the older backs since he got here. Singletary might be the receiving back atm I saw he has something like 70% of his snaps he’s running a route Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had his moments yesterday see the TD but he also looked slow at times when he get tackled from behind or not make it past the line of scrimmage. I still like the kid but not sure he'll ever be an featured RB in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsatlastin2018 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 If ever there was a game to NOT have Singletary in the Witness Protection Program, it was blustery wind yesterday! And yet, the OC... must have been in the same WPP telephone booth, with him! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wiz Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I think I heard this morning he had 6 touches on 42 snaps. I'm assuming they meant targets and not touches (carries)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Gore is simply playing too well to put Singletary in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Singletary on the field for nearly 70% of the snaps is a great start, I had no idea he was out there over Gore that much, we now just need to up his usage rate in a major way.

Bangarang Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 It boggles my mind how these coaches will spend 70 hours a week preparing for a game and still not know how to get this kid involved earlier in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
