papazoid Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 Is this going to help the stomach bug? absolutely
aristocrat Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 wonder if he gets over 300 carries this year?
transient Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 Probably an acknowledgement that the intended increased workload for a 29 year old back with HOF aspirations won't help his longevity.
Scott7975 Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) Hasn't put up Philly type numbers since coming here, no. If he puts up the type of numbers he did in Philly teams will know he's still got it and his trade value goes through the roof. A RB desperate team will be itching for a back that can put up big numbers like that 8 years in the league. Last season was his fourth highest yardage total, highest ypa total, and second highest td total. He had 80 less carries then he had in 2 of the 3 years with higher yardage totals and 40 less carries than the third. Edited September 8, 2017 by Scott7975
3rdand12 Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 Incentive to get his numbers up so he looks more attractive in a trade. If you think they did this out of the goodness of their hearts you are naive well color me naive. you are rowing out to an Island of doubt my friend. Is that your intention ? i wish you could find some way to be enthusiastic

They want to show he can carry a team on his back. A monster year proves that
Scott7975 Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 School is now in session. edit: my post should say 2 of the 3 years not games =)
26CornerBlitz Posted September 8, 2017 Author Posted September 8, 2017 edit: my post should say 2 of the 3 years not games =) I knew exactly what you meant.
Scott7975 Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 They want him to have MORE carries. They said it yesterday over and over. They want to show he can carry a team on his back. A monster year proves that Shady had a monster year and practically carried the team on his back last season. He doesn't need to prove to anyone anything. The guy is a hall of famer and was 5th best from scrimmage last season. What more could he possibly do to prove he is worth any more than he is already worth. Just stop. Your conspiracy theory is half baked at best.
transient Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 are we sure about the workload? I thought it was humor Was basing that in part on the the comments and in part on the inauspicious cast behind him.
Scott7975 Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 I knew exactly what you meant. I know you did. I wanted to make the correction anyways.
BarleyNY Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 Is this going to help the stomach bug? absolutely BOOM! There it is.
26CornerBlitz Posted September 8, 2017 Author Posted September 8, 2017 I know you did. I wanted to make the correction anyways. Carry on Professor.
3rdand12 Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) Was basing that in part on the the comments and in part on the inauspicious cast behind him. Alright, fair take. Maybe they are going to pound Tolbert to weaken the linebackers? Use Shady coming out of the backfield more often. We just don't know at this point. Very looking forward to Sunday to see what the heck this Team IS going to be doing. I can only guess about Dennison's plans Edited September 8, 2017 by 3rdand12

Your conspiracy theory is half baked at best.Hall of famer has nothing to do with it. He's going to be 30, he has to put up Philly type numbers this year to prove he still can. 300+ carries, a lot of catches out of the backfield, 1500+ yards rushing. Feature back by every definition. So you think the Bills are going to carry a 30 yr old who is the highest paid RB in the league on their roster next year in the middle of a rebuild? You are dreaming. They are dumping the high contracts and high contracts for RB's are unnecessary. If they can get an asset for him so that they can rebuild they will. This is a team being built for 2-3 yrs from now
145B4IDIE Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) I took as a gesture of loyalty and a signal to the team that we are NOT TANKING! This had to come from the top Edited September 8, 2017 by 145B4IDIE
NoSaint Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 They want him to have MORE carries. They said it yesterday over and over. They want to show he can carry a team on his back. A monster year proves that If he has that kind of 350+ carry season, I think we can call it the end of the road for shady.
