Matt Breida in the lineup 🙏🏼

[Chicharito]

He has to crack the lineup soon wouldn’t you think? I know the line hasn’t been top notch in run blocking but I think the lack of speed is what is hurting this offense. What do yous think?

[RobbRiddick]

I'd like to see him catch some screens in space

[1ManRaid]

The lack of speed isn't causing the poor run blocking and play calls.

[SageAgainstTheMachine]

We need to get CJ Spiller the ball in space.

Some of that N-S running will confound opposing defenses!

Why when have Taiwan Jones on offense?

[ColoradoBills]

Well it's been pretty much known that neither Devin or Zach can get around the corner and the Bills OL is not blocking well

for runs up the middle.  I wouldn't mind if Matt got activated for a game to see if his style could fit better with the OL as a

change of pace runner.

FWIW.

[Warcodered]

I mean I don't see anything to indicate that, our running issues seem to be more focused on the O-line.

 

This would be like changing your tires when the reason your not going forward is that you're out of gas.

I don't want to go back to the days of "95% chance this is a run, Spiller is on the field" with them knowing it's a run outside because Breida is on the field.  If you can't run, just throw it.

[Brand J]

I don’t think the running game is a running back problem. That said, I’d like to see either Singletary or Moss traded and Breida a game day backup to the other. Won’t happen though, we’d get next to nothing in a trade.

Breida can run between tackles and catch balls too.

[YoloinOhio]

Unless he’s a guard in scat back costume, it won’t matter 

[JohnNord]

The Bills and Dolphins offensive line were equally bad today.  When the ball was snapped the OL either was stonewalled or got pushed backward causing the backs to get him behind the LOS for a 1 or 2 yard gain.  It was disgusting 

[LABILLBACKER]

It doesn't matter. We won't magically improve our run game with Breida or King Henry. Our OL sucks at run blocking and they know it. Daboll continues to pretend he can run Singletary or Moss 6x each at 3 yards a pop. This entire OL needs an overhaul and unfortunately that won't come till maybe next year. We just have to be smart and take our shots at screens or dump offs.

Its not lack of speed, its the line and questionable playcalling

The line is not great but our back are also too slow

Backs are fine, dont need a blazer just guys who can get yards. Would love Derrick Henry but freaks like that dont come around often.

They are not fine or Beanne would not have been trying to make a trade at the deadline last season. I like Moss but Singletary is slow and small,  not a great combination.  Teams don't respect our running game at all

This^^^, but mostly a legitimate pair of offense guards, the O line is a far bigger issue than our RBs, jmo. Beane has his work cut out for himself this upcoming off season.

 

Go Bills!!!

 

Go

I guess you forgot about the Breida highlights from preseason and the Steelers game? O right, there weren't any.

 

He is not the answer.

[MrSarcasm]

The people clamoring for Breida remind me of the same ones clamoring for Reggie Bush... and his negative yards

don't you want every receiver to catch the ball in space or do you prefer they're tightly covered?

[without a drought]

He might not be a difference maker like Christian Wade, but why not, I don't like the way they've been winning lately.

If not for anything else, I would like to see Breida play this week to keep the rust off in case we are forced to use him further down the line. 

[Freddie's Dead]

Brieda is permanently affixed to the inactive list.  He only plays if Z Mo or Motor are unable to play.

You'd rather pay more for 2 yards per carry?

Christian Wade?!?  Of course!  To the Activationmobile! (Regardless of league rules or injury status.)

Look what Breida did against Pittsburgh.  Speed is only as good as your blocking and the Bills offensive line stinks

Breida legit looked promising with the 49ers.  Don't know what happened.

 

Agree with the folks who say it's primarily not our RBs that are the problem, it's our OL.  Best RB in the world only a threat if you can get them out to the 2nd level.

The idea with Breida was that he had the speed to get to the outside where the OL blocking not so much an issue.

 

That didn't pan out vs Pittsburgh, so the Breida experiment was curtailed.
