QB Bills

Where is Shaud Williams?

No offense (pun intended), but if you watched the games last year and thought "man, Fred just isn't very good", then you really don't know much about football. Not many RBs could be successful in that situation with that o-line, those QBs and those coaches. That's why objective fans were actually excited to see what Fred could do with a better supporting cast and some decent coaching this year. Why do you keep bringing up the fact that he's 34? You do realize he has less career carries than McCoy, right? Everyone's entitled to their opinion, and I guess that's what's good about a public message board, but I can't disagree with your assessment enough about this being a good football and/or business decision. The guy can still flat out ball. And the money he makes is paltry in the grand scheme of things, especially with all the workarounds available with contracts.

Serious question...do you watch the games?

Juicy... Oh, and screw Doug Whaley if this is true.

What is this nonsense about him going there to be a glorified babysitter? You people do realize Seattle won a super bowl (and probably should have won another) without a "babysitter" for Lynch. If it happens, this is a smart move by a smart organization for the sole purpose of winning football games. Fred is a gamer and a team that's gone the distance two years in a row recognizes that. The one that hasn't sniffed the playoffs since the turn of the century sees differently.

You still are. And you're welcome.

My favourite all-time Buffalo Bill. And I was a fan during the Super Bowl era. Still holding out hope that he somehow is back mid-season.

Doesn't have to do with saving face. That just makes no sense. Add an option for awful talent evaluation by the FO and that would get my vote.

No he's not. Everything Whaley does is great. At least according to the majority of the mouth breathers on this board. The fact that Nix was the GM when the bulk of the talent on this team was assembled doesn't matter to them. The talent Whaley brought in, he overpaid for (salary, or trade-wise). This is a stupid move on many levels. I'm still holding on to the delusional hope that he somehow signs back here mid-season. Although from the way the almighty Whaley made it sound, that's not an option.

Ya, but still. If you get hurt, you suck. That's just the way it is.

The guy has looked awful so far. Justin Rogers bad. Leodis needs to get back asap. This defense could be incredible but could also be done in with a glaring hole at CB2. I'm sure Rex will take care of this somehow. I hope.

Sounds good in theory OP, but you have to account for the other 52 guys on the roster. Not sure how they'd react to EJ starting if the consensus is he's worse than the other two guys. If he's good enough, he'll show it eventually.

This guy is going to take over the legend of kiko stuff. Don't mess with IK.

haha...that's brilliant! "off too much" or "off to dog porn"

Which platform are you using? How is the gameplay? Enough of a difference from last year? Or the year before that? Or the year before that? Or the year...

Surprised his name hasn't been on here yet but I find Manny Lawson quite underrated. And of course fred jackson will always be so. As for overrated, the unfortunate answer will prove to be mccoy.

I don't think you understand how contracts work.

He signed somewhere else??? Man, that hurts.

Lol at people saying no to Peyton f'n manning. Blindfold him and make him throw using his left hand and he's still better than the pile of dog feces we have at qb.

The positive here is that it seems like he wants to stay. A guy with one foot out the door wouldn't be saying anything. Cough....byrd...cough

I think you're right. But still, shut up dude. You're not going to get anything accomplished crying to the media.

can't tell if that's sarcastic....if so, kudos anyway, i'll eat crow on this one...i thought it was a bad move not paying him

I can't argue with someone who just looks at basic numbers to make a point. YPC and age are all relative. He has less career carries than Shady. Does that matter to you though? Probably not. Hands over ears, eyes squeezed shut, everyone chant "Fred's too old! Fred's too old!" Anyway, the season is only a few weeks away. We'll see how it all plays out. I don't know. How about you tell us how many?

Really? Because I've rewatched games from last season and I've seen him plow through guys like he has in the past. He's never been explosive in terms of speed, so that's why I don't agree when people say he's lost a step. He's as smart and shifty as ever and I think he's going to have a great year, assuming he can stay healthy.
