JESSEFEFFER Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Some RBs take hits and others deliver them. I think he is more the latter. He seems to have good to great vision, get very low prior to contact, protect the ball and maintain his balance after delivering the blow, sometimes with a Kenny Davis "Texas Twister" type spin move. He should rarely be tackled for a loss. He has a leverage advantage on taller LBs and a momentum advantage (m * v) on most DBs who might choose to step into his path. Assuming they are a successful duo, and they just might be all that, I wonder what such a pair would be worth on their second contracts. If they split the work load they may be viable talents through a second contract and do generally great things for the Bills offense in all situations. So, it is considered foolish to pay a RB Todd Gurley or Zeke Elliott contracts but what does Brandon Beane pay each half of a highly effective pairing? I hope we get to see in the next few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngjebrey Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 He’s going to make a lot of DBs (like gilmore) make business decisions when he breaks into the secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 He is a throwback type of football player. Quiet. His play will do the talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you bring out Devin who can pick it up through the air, on the ground, or a staight up pass play. Moss was a pretty solid pass catching back in college Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But after hearing him and reading about him, I Can’t wait to see Moss do that to Gilmore or Chung or any of Pats secondary Agreed. I thought the Bills should have taken Dobbns in Rd 2 when he was available. However, their patience paid off. Moss is probably the most underrated RB in this draft and glad we got him. He doesn't have to do it all by himself...Singletary will still be that lead back...But when we are in the 4th quarter with a 3 point lead, this guy will be like a sledge hammer, iin killing the clock. 2 hours ago, Bob in STL said: He is a throwback type of football player.

Jauronimo Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I'm glad we have a real short yardage back now. Don't get me wrong, I loved the QB sneak where Allen gets stuffed at first or fumbles then disappears into a pile of bodies before miraculously emerging for a first down while my heart skips a beat and I loved Gore falling one inch over the marker necessitating challenges and video review but this year I am looking forward to some no frills first downs. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh yes said the Noob that could not follow the rules - then had his thread merged with another thread because a quick search of the first page would of showed a perfectly fine thread on Moss and his running style that was a perfect place for your post. Starting a new thread just to post a Random thought and ignoring is such a LAMP move. For Gods sake man learn common decency and follow the rules - it is quick and easy to perform a search and your though was fine - it just did not warrant a new thread when the front page already had multiple threads with Moss and one specifically discussing his running style with a title starting with “Check out this collision....” Other than that I answered you original thought and made a suggestion that turned out to be correct and tried to do it in a nice way rather than what many other “Men” normally post which would have called you many nasty names for a lame Lamp post to start a new thread with. Sorry. ?♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to see how others think take a quick gander at the posts in the duplicate and closed “sammy’s Injuries” thread or a quick skim of either of the TMaster threads one closed and one still going about Blain Bishop. I just assumed as a noob you did not know the rules and made a suggestion you could search - it is easy and it is the way things are done here - which is a much better way than every random though becomes a thread.

Yeah, that 4 minute drill video was very encouraging. We all have bad memories of us playing with a lead and letting it slip away. If he can run out a clock in the NFL, like he did in college, it will be a joy to watch. (and we will all eventually learn how to relax when we are winning in the 4th Quarter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreggTX Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 3 thoughts on the OP. 1. I like our RB situation a lot, but I don't know that our OL is strong enough to match your prediction. 2. I see no reason why both DS and ZM can't be effective anywhere on the field. I'm fine with either one in short or long yardage situations. 3. We were top 5 for most of last season, but much of that was scrambling yards by JA on called pass plays. I think you need to subtract those yards from the team total to get a true measure of our rushing attack. Conversely, "pop" passes should be considered rushing plays/yards.
