Major disappointment! A new topic was needed for his play this year. Can someone name one game where he has made a difference? Until we can establish some signs of a running game, it will be tough sledding in the big games.

No speed or size to run past or over people,  wasted pick.  Get rid of him because easier to defend Allen when they have no worries about your running back

Singletary felt like a breath of fresh air last season. He was a rookie, not that fast but quick and hard to tackle. This season I have very few good memories of him and this drop was just too bad. Stevie Johnson got a lot of criticism for his famous drop, but this was much worse. Most of our moms could catch that ball!

Is hard to explain how/why he looked so much better last season.    Not sure if the issue is the run blocking is much worse or something else going on, but entire running game basically doesn't exist??

 

But agree the biggest things they need to improve in the off season is running the ball and pass rush.  Starr should help against the run though we all thought he was horrendous in past years but may have helped more than we realized.  But still not enough consistent pressure on QB .

He's made a difference in several games, along with Moss. Running the clock down at the end of several games, getting several important first downs, making some nice catches and runs and doing an absolute ton of terrific blocks keeping our QB unsacked. And a couple of TDs on top of that.

 

Oh, and thanks for the total lack of any new spin, facts or point of view on this.

Singletary can and will be replaced by any journeyman out there, was a wasted pick.  Should have had Dobbins this year and instead have a backup DE.. awesome..

McCoy in his prime or Lynch in his prime on this team would be an elite offense.. right now this offense just isn't dynamic enough to shoot it out with KC

Who should we draft/ elevate from PS/ sign to replace Singletary?

Is there someone in rounds 3-5 that could be an Alvin Kamara type of back?

Kamara would solve our RB issues.  Then heavy OL  DL in draft   we are not doing the best in the trenches,,, especially defense

I'd cut him Immediately. He's the definition of mediocre. Keep Moss and draft another. The coaches should apologize to Yeldon.

C J Yeldon fits this Offense best and had he been used more today I think Buffalo would have had a better chance to win IMO.

 

Dabolls worst game of the season. 

 

Whole coaching staff including McD for that matter. Kicking field goals when you need 2 1/2  yards.

 

Hand the friggin ball off to Yeldon! Damn

Singletary is a great guy, just not good enough to get significant snaps in the NFL. He doesn't have NFL speed, and he tries to use his 1 great attribute (moves) too much instead of blasting into holes.

 

I think Moss would've helped today, but we need a major upgrade.
