hemma Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 If he gets within sniffing distance, the team will sure try and get him the rest of the way. Last game of the year is home vs the Pats. Be nice to grind their meat into the snow. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 7 games last year with single digit attempts. He was splitting reps with Moss early on and we had terrible run blocking ahead of him….he started getting the lions share in the last 4-5 games. I think this year he does it. He will get the majority share of the carries and I don’t see our run blocking being as bad this year. While I think that he is ready and good enough to do it, I don’t think the carries are there. Especially if the Bills figure out a way to keep three backs active on game days. Exactly like what they did in the preseason. Gave the red-zone carries to Moss. If they do that, no way Devin makes it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoBills808 Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Won't get the volume but that's a good thing imo Singletary is well suited for his role in this offense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rc2catch Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Hard to say cause Dorsey is new. The issue with Devin has always been attempts. He always seems to be over 4ypc but he never gets that many attempts for a season. I’m going to say no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppy Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I'm in the "the Bills have so many offensive weapons to feed He may not have sufficient touches to attain 1000" camp. I feel dirty writing it I hope he does do it and I will then eat delicious crow m 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His projected totals over a full season after the Bucs game would be 1400 yds and 17 TDs. He will break 1200 yards this year and double digit TDs.

Not saying I don't like Moss but Singletary is obviously a rhythm guy and I think he's more effective in a rhythm than he and Moss are when they split.

FilthyBeast Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I say no because this offense is still going to be pass first with Allen getting yards on the ground and Cook likely being a major factor in both the ground and passing game. Also we'll probably waste a fair share of carries on Moss as long as he's still on the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ppl don't want to admit it but before Moss was hurt in his rookie year he was rb1. He's very talented. Ppl are blinded by bad oline play and him being hurt last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrPJax Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 2 hours ago, BuffaloBillies said: 59 yards per game X 17 gets you 1,000. I think he gets it, barring injury. And if he has just three 100 yard games, the average needed for the other 14 games is only 50 yards. It’s not really a high bar like when the Season was 14-16 games per year. I agree with you. With new running scheme under Kromer and Daboll being gone with his obsession over passing , plus we should be running games out more, 1000 yards is actually a a fairly avg accomplishment. It is just not such a landmark any longer. In fact if we don’t have one 1000 yd runner it’s a sign our o may not be playing from in front or running in the red zone etc like Mcd was asking for last year. Also could happen if they keep sticking to rotating too much and not defined roles and could also happen as we face more passing teams / better qbs this year a s have to play catch up. Basically , if it doesn’t happen it’s more Likely the season is not going the dominant route we are expecting from a w/L and could be from the d not getting off the field as we play from behind. I think Dorsey runs more and is less ego driven/ less cutesy in run situations than Daboll and it would be unexpected if they fail again. to have a 1000 yd back. I think Mcd gets more balance and dictates to Dorsey more than he felt he could with Daboll. Also see more prolonged drives and less punting this year. Side note, this debacle with ariza,Tre being placed on pup with no vet cbs, the disappointment with Howard , knox losing his brother, the o line issues with hart still on the squad ( Fina stated he didn’t see Hart making the team because of technique issues) , needing new holder , etc are a ton of issues for a supposed SB fav right out of the gate w a tough schedule. Somewhat reminds me of the early struggles / inconsistency seen last year with the home open loss, juggling o line, and that could be enough to lose home filed advantage in playoffs once again. ( Josh 0-3 in playoff road games). Will any of the mess of the last preseason game linger emotionally as they were so high off Denver game and the fell flat with Jobs on the line ? For such a talented roster , seems like a lot of coaching issues lingering that we shouldn’t be seeing in the 6 th year of a regime. Can’t just flip a switch and perception is mixed about how prepared they are for LA. Mcd has come up short in critical ,times (13 sec) , pressure is building for him to reach expectations. More questions than I expected for opening day! Just some thoughts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moss's "promising" rookie season was worse than Singletary's sophomore slump. Singletary has performed significantly better than Moss behind the same garbage o-line. All that being said, no I don't think Singletary makes 1k rushing yards this season. He won't get enough carries. McD loves gifting touches to Moss even though Singletary is better.

LABILLBACKER Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 If he plays the way he did toward the end of the season then yes he surpasses 1000. Averaging 58 per game with an increased workload from Dorsey is very doable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 He’s definitely capable. I don’t think he will though. Too many mouths to feed. Allen+ Cook + Moss + Shak and Dirty all taking carries away from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’ll be easy if the Oline can cleanly get him past the LOS consistently. If Singletary’s first juke is on LBers or DBs instead of Dlinemen his YPC will jump up dramatically, as he’d likely rip off a bunch of 10-20 yard runs.

Victory Formation Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I voted yes. I think our running attack will be ferocious this year, to the point where Josh does not need to be spectacular for us to win games. I do feel that Singletary can put up 50-60yds per game over a 17 game season. Cook will be right behind him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobills404 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I think he’ll start out on pace for 1000 yards, but then as the season goes we’ll start to see more and more carries go to Cook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
