I didn’t think brieda looked good in miami. I loved him in SF though. He’s just a meh guy. A 3rd rb, who happens to be the only one on the roster with speed. Just so happens that he plays on a team that only dresses RBs (and one ST rb). Sucks for him and us. I’d like to see Breida and Williams get a shot, but they won’t do that to motor. He’s been improved, but still lacks that gear we need. I was hoping that we would’ve drafted a rb at some point. Kenneth Gainwell and Khalil Herbert are looking pretty good. I don’t think Basham is a waste. I think he’ll be a productive player for us. Just not this season. I would’ve preferred Creed Humphrey 💯 I would’ve preferred if we took Trey Smith in rd instead of Doyle or any of the 6th rounders we took. Those two dudes would’ve made our OL better. Instead, the picks were used on future potential. I just don’t think it was the right offseason to take that route. 👍🏻 Well said, hopefully if Zack is not cleared we'll get a look at Breida. You're absolutely right, his best action came in San Francisco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelius Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I think it’s more accurate to say that he had speed at one point years ago, and we all really hope that he still does, right? I’m seeing a lot of people acting like they know exactly what Breida provides despite the fact that he’s barely been a running back for two+ years. The guy hasn’t seen an end zone since San Francisco. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuelTime Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I don't see why Gilliam doesnt get more snaps.. Jones is kind of a wasted RB too.. Surely seeing what some others can do couldn't be worse than what we've seen from Singletary and Moss. I want to see Wade in action! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norcalbillsfan Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Not sure why everyone hates on this, he at least has blazing speed, which in my opinion is killing us, not necessarily in the run game but the passing game. No one respects moss or Singletary on passing cuz they are terribly slow. Let's see what brieda does with a few dump offs, that part of our offense can't get worse with brieda. And if he is terrible, who cares its 1 game, cut him move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to have vision when you look up and see 2 DLs in the backfield by the time you get the ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he has the most RAW potential than any RB on our roster or PS. You will never know how good the guy is until he gets the carries in a real game.

kkim0904 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Give him chance. Lets see how he does. Design the play for him to run, don't force him to run in desperate situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just as few holes in the D gap as there are on the A gap. I could easily see us having 3 new RB's next year to go with new olineman.

Yeldon fits the style O Daboll wants to run and exactly the kind of RB that could kick start the O right now. Higher draft pick then both Moss and Singletary. Good size, good hands. Pisses me off...

Scott7975 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 (edited) Lets be real. If the line still cant block he isn't going to make a difference in the run game. We had Breida in week 1. He had 4 carries for 4 yards while Singletary had 11 for 72. After the game people cried that McD sat Moss.

He was wasted. I don't trust this regime's eye for RB talent, although I think the Bears snaked Montgomery from us in the draft so they settled for Singletary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livinginthepast Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Im all for any of these other backs getting a chance. I dont think either Singletary or Moss has really progressed anywhere near where we thought they should be by this point. And thats still taking into account the terrible O line. Another thing that both our current backs are missing is the pounding effect they should be inflicting on the defense. Its so weird that Moss and Singletary are over 200lb but they are often easily stopped by the D. Time and again they are actually bounced backwards and lose yards. The problem for the Bills is that Brieda is taller but lighter than Singletary and Moss. Antonio Williams is one back that is taller and heavier than anyone else. You would think he might be the solution to break tackles and pound the defense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slippery Rubber Mats Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Can't hurt to give him a look. I'd probably sit Singletary but meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
