Success Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 This would be legit exciting. I mean, our offense would approach '01 Rams or '07 Patriots levels in terms of the # of playmakers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALLEN1QB Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 let him go somewhere else I really don't want him in Buffalo. We have good team cohesion and don't need his bad attitude being a cancer in the locker room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s really between those 3 teams, we are the best option. The Dolphins aren’t going anywhere, the Chiefs have an established running back now, we have a need for a running game plus he can stick it to both his former teams within a few weeks of each other this season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Back2Buff Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 We need Bell so bad, hopefully he chooses us. People that don't know if they want this or he wouldn't be a huge addition, are in delusional about our running backs. Same situation with Fournette. We need a real RB bad!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willing to bet he is signing with KC, but Bills should have the most money to offer. Sean will pass because he only like high motor good guys , will never learn and you lose because it. Andy Reid is the teacher and Sean still does not get it, this is why Murphy is still on this team. The fact is Singletary is not taking us anywhere with his lack of size and speed, a motivated Bell can really help Allen out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Singletary shouldn't be running up the middle. They should use him out of the backfield & on the edges. He needs space to make things happen. Maybe Moss can be that complimentary guy, but we don't know. Bell is an instant upgrade to a running game that has struggled to this point.

Nobody is really offering more money than one another in this case due to the offset language in the contract. If the Bills offer $3 mil for example, that just means the Jets pay him $3 mil less. Unless someone is giving Bell more than his overpaid contract that the Jets had signed him too, the money won't matter here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
