With the new rules we have the ability to bring up PS guys and activating them without cutting anyone? Is that it? Yes he is on PS and would need to be called up. I believe you get too call up a player 3 times before you have to either keep him on active roster or keep him on PS for the season. But not 100% positive.

PS players can be activated on game day before the team announces their inactives (90 minutes before game time). The player doesn't have to be elevated from the PS to the main roster for the move. This can happen with up to two practice squad players per week. A player is only able to be elevated twice per season. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/31869693/nfl-carry-flexible-roster-rules-2021 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put these backs behind the OL in NE or TN and they would produce fine. Najee Harris is a talented RB. Pittsburgh expended a $30M-per-year-position-type draft pick on him. He's rushing for a ghastly 3.7 ypc this season. Because his OL isn't good. By contrast......Devin Singletary is getting nearly a full yard per carry more than him and is basically a career 4.7 ypc RB on over 400 career carries. Not sure how one can watch the Bills OL allow defenders to slash cleanly into the backfield play after play and somehow think that it's not an offensive line issue. it's an OL issue, but I also see RBs missing their holes. So did John Fina, btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fina pointed out some mistakes by the RB's in that game...........but EVERY position group makes SOME mistakes. Fina could have pointed out the same types of occasional mistakes in the secondary or the WR corps or the DL.......units that generally get good grades. The issue is that the OL CONSISTENTLY fails to execute their assignments properly. It all starts with them..........if they do their job consistently.....then the RB's can trust their blocking and it makes it easier to anticipate where the hole will be. What we too often are seeing are RB's being tentative because they ASSUME that the OL will blow their assignments. For good reason. Go back and watch the Breida fumble..........that's a mistake on him........but as he is being handed the ball two defenders are coming unblocked leaving Breida trying to figure out how to avoid a loss before he even gets the ball. Your running game can't function at a high level like that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da webster guy Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Singletary is having a good season. Considering his Oline, the guy is still averaging well over 4 ypc, better than guys like Henry, Ekeler, Mixon, Fournette etc. RB talent isn't the issue, its a combination of having mediocre run blockers and an OC that isn't exactly Greg Roman when it comes to blocking schemes and implementing an innovative ground game. Also we need lil Dirty back asap so I see them sitting Brieda or Zack again this week and only going w two backs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
