mjt328 Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 I cannot think of a player more worthless. He's not a good blocker. He's too slow to get anything running the ball, unless there is a massive hole right up the gut. He can't catch and he fumbles too much. Yet this doesn't stop Rick Dennison from using him like a Swiss Army Knife. Watch him get no yards on FB dive! Watch him lose 5 yards on a FB screen! Watch him split out into the slot and drop the ball! I wouldn't be surprised if we have Wildcat packages designed for Tolbert. We are probably an injury away from him being our #1 kick/punt returner. 5 3 1
sullim4 Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 He should be cut, but he's a "process" player so he gets a free pass.
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 If they wanted to bring him as a locker room character guy, it wouldn’t have been a bad pickup. Dennison making him a featured part of the offense is the problem. Dennison has been the worst pickup.
billspro Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 I would take Fred Jackson at age 40 over Mike Tolbert. It's an absolute joke that he is on an NFL roster. There are probably hundreds of hard working kids that are street free agents that are way more talented. 2 1

I love when he was asked about it weeks ago, that if he realised that Tolbert was in the game, that he said he wasn’t aware. Like come on. Basically admitting he has no clue on his personal in the game and if the play calls change.
Maynard Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 I get pissed every time he’s out there. Opposing D’s just tee off on him. 2
BigDingus Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 He's bad. But they didn't have much of a choice this game after Cadet went down.
Pbomb Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 reggie bush finished the year with negative rushing yards yet i have to agree with the op, what a horrible, terrible player
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 Tolbert and Webb would be shoveling snow if it were not for the Bills employing them.
Augie Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 He gives us something we can all unite on. There’s some value there. 3

mjt328 Posted December 24, 2017 Author Posted December 24, 2017 Most OCs would use somebody like Mike Tolbert as a change of pace back. But not Dennison. He literally changes NOTHING when LeSean McCoy comes out of the game. Somehow he believes that "if McCoy can run that play, then why can't Tolbert?" The only value Tolbert brings to this team, is if he somehow helps Dennison get canned. 1 2

It just frightens me that our coaching staff can’t see the same thing every Bills fan does. There are Bills fans on every continent who know this, yet our coaching staff remains clueless.
Jamie Mueller Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 (edited) I think that the title on this thread is a little bit harsh. I'd have no problem with Tolbert being on the team to help teach the young guys how to be good professionals. The only problem is that the coaches keep putting him on the field. Edited December 24, 2017 by Jamie Mueller spelling mistake

Maybe we've had worse FA players. But how many of them have had the negative impact of Tolbert? It doesn't matter how many fumbles, drops, runs for losses... the coaching staff just keeps giving him the ball and designing plays for him. It's insane. 2
RichRiderBills Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 (edited) I've never seen a player with such poor performance on feild given so many opportunities Edited December 24, 2017 by RichRiderBills
NewEraBills Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 Couldn't believe Dennison had this guy running a SLANT route.
