Deranged Rhino Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I'll bet Fred's hamstring heals before Chris Conte's face.

Dragonborn10 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Fred is done. He was old and slow last year. The wheels have fallen off. I wish he was four years younger and had the same team and coaching staff that he does now. It is time to bring him in the office and have the talk. Retire or get cut now.

What a Tuel Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Fred is done. He was old and slow last year. The wheels have fallen off. I wish he was four years younger and had the same team and coaching staff that he does now. It is time to bring him in the office and have the talk. Retire or get cut now. Led the team in first downs last year. Might as well change out the entirety of the offense then too.

BuffaloBaumer Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Swing pass for 1st downs all season...let it rip Freddy.
ALF Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Time to see if the FBs can run the ball, with Fred and Dixon out for now, and Bryce still has fumbles. MarQueis Gray is there TE/HB Edited August 8, 2015 by ALF
Dorkington Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Huge deal---hammies can plague a rb/wr all season, and as we age the healing process is more complicated. Exactly why it's better for it to happen now, so he can properly heal instead of rushing back to play in games. Those things tend to linger in the regular season because players come back before they are 100%.
judman Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 3rd and goal from the 4... i want to see fred lined up in the backfield. But that's me.

It's going to be Fred's body, not his heart that determines if he has another season in him, IMO.

Buffaloed in Pa Posted August 8, 2015 Author Posted August 8, 2015 Time to see if the FBs can run the ball, with Fred and Dixon out for now, and Bryce still has fumbles. MarQueis Gray is there TE/HB What fumbles are you talking about the ONE last year. Hasn`t fumbled in camp at all. Has a TON of more upside than Fred.
Dorkington Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 What fumbles are you talking about the ONE last year. Hasn`t fumbled in camp at all. Has a TON of more upside than Fred. Yes, yes he has.
Buffaloed in Pa Posted August 8, 2015 Author Posted August 8, 2015 Yes, yes he has. Liar and guess what Fred is done for sure after this yr anyway Ha.The T.D. machine,with Big Play ability.
Dorkington Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpages/playerbreakingnews.asp?sport=NFL&id=7670&line=314248&spln=1 http://bills.buffalonews.com/2015/08/07/bills-depth-at-running-back-takes-another-hit/ The rest of the plays were runs that the defense was able to keep out of the end zone. Alex Carrington made one of the best plays when he stopped Brown in his tracks for no gain. Brown struggled in the drill, failing to score on six rush attempts and losing a fumble.“I forgot to do that,” Ryan said as he knocked on the wooden podium, referencing his comment Thursday about how Brown had not fumbled to that point. “He put one down today. But yeah, that’s been an issue. He’s got to just hit it. He’s got the best guy in the league in Anthony Lynn working with him. He’s got to believe in it.” If you're going to troll, at least be factual.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I love how some of you are counting fred out. If there is one guy who gets the benefit of the doubt, it's him.

I`ll still take him over dead legs.Get rid of BOTH then.Fred has NO..NO. Upside.Fan favorites don`t win games.It`s been such a losing culture here,that fans begin to accept a washed up r.b. as a icon. Pro-bowler ? League top 5 back ever? Hall of famer ? No, but he`s a nice guy. He was part of why we were losers all these years. He just wasn`t good enough ever.Spiller and Jackson . I`ve seen other top r.b.s produce big numbers ,without a good Qb.Just because he played for us,you were blinded by reality. That is why we got Shady. We needed a play maker at this position. We let HALL OF FAME players go when they were done. Thurm ,Reed,Bruce, What makes a average rb ,better than them ?? Whatever.

He's going to be used as a platoon/backup/3rd downish back, not a featured back.
Billsguy Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Agreed...and last year he really lost a step. I love the guy but his time has come. Great guy, but the time is running out on Fred Jackson. He's the oldest running back in the entire league. As they say, "Father Time is undefeated" Nobody hates Fred Jackson, just the opposite, but let's face reality.
