BarleyNY Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 http://Jeff Darlington (@JeffDarlington) Tweeted: In Week 6 of 2017, during a Steelers win against the Chiefs, Leveon Bell had 32 carries for 179 yards and a TD. Antonio Brown had 8 catches for 155 yards and a TD. Imagine the reaction if you’d said at that moment both will be healthy and not on a team exactly three years later… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I think Moss could give us more of a boost than Bell. Moss has the potential to be a good all purpose RB. He runs with power, can make u miss, has good hands and can block. He doesn’t have that home run speed but neither does Motor, Yeldon or Bell.

Depth is something we need as much of as we can have. Are their any D players available who are the positional equivalent to Leveon Bell? I'm all about adding to the D, but that doesnt mean we shouldnt/cant sign top O talent if it is out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrtonHearsaWho Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I 100% think that the Bills should give him a look. I get that he probably isn't what he used to be, but he used to be the best back in the league so some regression is to be expected. He showed up in tremendous shape this year and honestly I thought that he handled things pretty okay during his brief time there considering that his total clown of a coach talked about not wanting him almost immediately, didn't use him well at all, then put him back on the field when he was hurt. Green Bay has been utilizing three backs on the field at the same time while they have had injury concerns and it has really created matchup problems for defenses. Even though is isn't the player he used to be, he could still be an excellent player if used properly. We aren't going to pick up a defensive playmaker equivalent to Bell anytime soon so if we could add a piece to the offense that can help sustain drives and keep the defense off the field, that's a win.

thenorthremembers Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Are we sure he wants to sign anywhere? I mean he can sit out the remainder of the season and still make 19 million dollars from the Jets for doing nothing. The guy who sat out an entire year, and lost 20 million dollars is suddenly going to want to work his butt off to make an extra 3 when he is already getting 19 for sitting at home, rapping, smoking and sleeping? Hard pass for me on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QCity Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I'm going to say Arizona. Drake has been a huge disappointment for them and their RB coach is his old coach from Pittsburgh when he was lighting it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He fits this offense like a glove. He’s a strong runner and a guy who we can flex out as a receiver. Singletary is a decent player, but not a RB1. Moss can’t get on the field to share carries and the staff seems dead set on not playing Yeldon over an extended period of time. Yeldon was our best running back, last night, by far... Bell is a better version of Yeldon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
