26CornerBlitz Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 @JoeBuscaglia With no LeSean McCoy at practice today, Karlos Williams was working closely with #Bills RBs coach Anthony Lynn today Getting Karlos Ready to Roll (0:14)
Astrobot Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Here's what I said about him on DraftTek the day of the draft: Â 155 Buffalo Karlos Williams Florida St RBF Â Â Karlos is a personal favorite, a big and fast downhill runner who spent the 2013 season as their starting SS. Ground and Pound just got another hammer, as Williams' size was interesting to the Bills here, despite having Boobie on the roster. Some trouble getting on the field as he backed up Freeman for the Seminoles. DT Michael Bennett was still on the board, as was TE O'Leary. Grade: B Â Lo and behold, we got O'Leary too!
Astrobot Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Karlos leads Shady in everything but snaps (57 to 125).  Karlos--Running Overall +3.8 Shady--Running Overall -1.6  Karlos--Blocking Overall -0.6 Shady--Blocking Overall -1.7  Karlos--Yards Per Attempt 7.8 yds Shady--Yards Per Attempt 3.4 yds  Karlos--YAC per Attempt 3.0 yards Shady--YAC per Attempt 1.4 yards  Karlos--Longest Gain 41 yards Shady--Longest Gain 18 yards  Karlos--TDs--3 Shady--TDs--0

Those are some great numbers to look at all in one place. Here's to hoping Shady can come back 100% and we can have a legendary one-two punch!

BuffaninATL Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Clearly, you weren't watching the game on TV. The announcers kept going on and on about what a great fullback he is....and then when Felton was on the field with him they were clearly confused and I THOUGHT the light bulb was flickering on....but then they just shrugged it off and ran with it and talked about the Bills jumbo formation with two fullbacks. Â Clearly, you should know better than to take a Solomon/Spiro comment to the bank as Gospel truth. Carlos is NOT a fullback ..... look who is clearly on the radar of the NY Football Giants: Â http://nypost.com/2015/10/01/the-giants-only-hope-of-stopping-bills-240-pound-steal-of-a-rb/
K D Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 i just hope Karlos doesn't get dinged up or winded. He was used to splitting time in college and has never been a full time feature back. It will be interesting to see how he handles it

It will be interesting to see how he handles it  good point - with Boobie's feet seemingly stuck in wet cement, I wonder what the game plane is for another RB to get carries.....Thigpen? activate Cierre Wood? I doubt the latter, but we'll see according to the game plan
26CornerBlitz Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 @billsupdates What they're saying: @Karlos_29_SR vs. @Giants 'D' an old-school matchup: http://ow.ly/SWLed

26CornerBlitz Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Karlos wasn’t expecting early successHe’s a green rookie in his first NFL season, but not much has slowed Bills rookie RB Karlos Williams so far. He’s leading the Bills in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns with LeSean McCoy slowed by a persistent hamstring injury. Even Williams himself admits he didn’t think he’d enjoy this kind of success this soon. Â
YoloinOhio Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 @theMMQB: Why did Karlos Williams fall to the fifth round of the draft? (Hint: He wasn't very good last season.) http://t.co/LcV9qBsRCU
Dorkington Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 18 for 40 yards, not that impressive... he's not ready to be #1 with this team/scheme/line. We needed more out of him today.
YoloinOhio Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 @BuffRumblings: Karlos' 4th straight game with a TD puts him on short list that features Dubenion & O.J. http://t.co/4n1mFUUBZxhttp://t.co/bNr4YbaCnm
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 18 for 40 yards, not that impressive... he's not ready to be #1 with this team/scheme/line. We needed more out of him today. I didn't think we set him up very well. Lots of running into the line. The few times we had some misdirection and fake sweeps going on, he had some nice runs.
YoloinOhio Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 The NYG had the #2 run D coming into the game and we had two starting OL out. We also couldn't stretch the field without Sammy which doesn't help the run game either. Loved the play call on the wheel route for the TD though!
