JohnBonhamRocks Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I hope not. He was a fumble machine in Madden for me today. Don’t like what the universe is telling me with that. Also he just shouldn’t be trusted back there anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need all the firepower we can get and weather conditions aren't expected to be a factor. No chance. Next year it won’t be Hyde but for the balance of this season it is.

GunnerBill Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 They will start with Hyde back there. But if we get behind in the game and need a spark I expect they will chuck Isaiah there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDingus Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I'd rather preemptively call fair catch for every punt than put McKenzie back there. Even if we had 0 return yards, at least the offense would get a possession. Better than giving the opponent a free drive in our own territory...

Was not a fumble as official was signaling down by contact before ball went out of bounds. This was on opening kickoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaMilBill Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I really hope he just keeps Hyde back there. Extremely reliable. Only downside to Hyde is the increase in injury risk and it quite as explosive as McKenzie. But, I’d take Hyde in a heartbeat 43 minutes ago, freddyjj said: Was not a fumble as official was signaling down by contact before ball went out of bounds. This was on opening kickoff.

JoshAllin Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) I still trust McKenzie back there but rather he gets more snaps at WR Edited January 23, 2022 by motorj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 The smart money is on Hyde to return kicks. Li’l Dirty will help us plenty on offense but he’s just too uncertain as a returner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyde can catch the punts and give the ball to the offense. Hyde looks very confident in fielding punts. Why do you think he usually ends up grabbing onside kicks? It’s the hands!

racketmaster Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I’d much rather have a safe punt catcher back there and just let McKenzie play on offense where he is more valuable. The Bills are not one of those teams that require great punt and kickoff returns as their offense is top shelf. If we still had Roberts it would be nice as he gives u some return bonus as well as the ball security but for now I’ll just take the ball security and smart decisions Hyde will make.

LyndonvilleBill Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Being one of the original Lil' Dirty fan club members, even I don't want him returning punts to start the game. I'm with Gunner bill on this one. If we (heaven forbid) get behind, then I would put him back there for a spark. I want him heavily used on offense and his entire focus on O.

Maybe he's like Les Nessman catching the fly ball in right field. Gets so excited over the action, he closes his eyes. 🤔 * Could be worse. He could pee his pants. There was a kid on my son's 8 & 9 year old baseball team tended to do that if the ball was hit to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locomark Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) No on returns but as far as McKenzie let’s just hope Daboll doesn’t get cute and suddenly stop using him much on offense this week. He has been dynamic for this team making offensive plays. Edited January 23, 2022 by Locomark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I hope they let him do more than just that i think he is a weapon that could be utilized like the Chiefs use Hill & speed kills so put him on the line a let that engine run WFO !!
