We all know LeSean's talent, one of the premier RB's in the NFL What we don't know is his ego.

Odell Beckham Jr injured his ankle in the pre season against the Browns. Was off a few weeks, came back for a

few weeks and then was lost for the season as he broke the same ankle he injured a few weeks earlier. 

Coincidence? Who knows. Shady injured his ankle Sunday in Miami. So far he has not practiced. Will he play

Sunday in Jacksonville? Nobody knows, but if they do know, no one is saying. Obviously Shady wants to play,

and the Bills will probably be better if he does. This a decision the coaching staff, the trainers, and medical

people should make, and it is a decision they have to say yes to, only if he is 100%. This is not a decision that Shady

should make. Against Miami Sunday, a healthy McCoy in 11 carries gained 10 yards. That's right 10 yards.

It really wasn't on him though, but on a O Line so bad that it would have been hard for anyone to do good. 

A O Line that needs to be fixed in the off season, no matter what any statistics show. How bad are they, and

disagree if you want, but do you know who has the most negative yards from scrimmage in the NFL this

year. If you said Shady you win. He has had some good games this year against poor DL But other teams

have stacked the box and want the passing game  to beat them. Anyway if he is 100%, let him play, if not he

needs to sit. Win this week and the Pats are waiting in Foxboro. He needs to be healthy next week.

What about other players who aren't "100%"? Should they sit as well? Worry about next week, next week. All focus is on this game, There may not be a next bweek

It's very rare to return to play 7 days later from a grade 2 ankle sprain. I think we can survive and actually win with Murphy. I'd prefer a 100% Shady in Foxboro,  than risking worse damage for the summer camp.

jeremy2020, you are one with over 6,000 posts that say nothing, but I guess haters will always hate.

You couldn't be more wrong, with your hate. If you want a gimpy McCoy out there so be it.

He's gonna play if he can. It's not called being egotistical, it's called being a competitor. Beckham had his ankle rolled up by a defender hitting him from behind. It was a freak injury. If Shady is say 75-80% that's still a better option than Tolbert.

Murphy and Tolbert ran well at times behind that bad line.

. Could it just be that the Dolphins focused on taking Shady out? You do realize that the guys on the Dolphins...the defense... they play professional football as well. Right?

 

It's good to see people like you on the board. The " Crud they got in the playoffs but I have a reputation for complaining" crowd. So the real question becomes will your ego outstrip your posting "talent"?.

This needed its own thread?

 

...LOWERING the "thread starting bonus" from $500 to $2.38 should do the trick, right?.............

Wanting to play is ego now?  

 

"the Bills will probably be better if he plays"  He's been 33% of our offense.  Probably better??? 

 

Good grief

So, any athlete that isn't at 100% shouldn't participate? I guess Tommy Lasorda then shouldn't have sent the injured Kirk Gibson to the plate in the bottom of the ninth in '88 to face Eckersley. 

And I suppose Willis Reed shouldn't have suited up in the '70 NBA finals. And Schilling shouldn't have started in the '04 ALCS game 7. And Tiger should have pulled out of the US Open in '08 instead of playing on one leg. Those athletes needed to check their egos and say "can't go" and left it at that.

it's the playoffs

 

he's playing

 

will he be effective....probably not

 

 

 

It's hard to know if he can be effective - to say probably not is a bit early for me.
