Dr.Sack Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 The real question is does he have enough gas left in the tank to catch Emmitt Smith 3,607? At 4.0 a carry that’s about 902 carries. Probably won’t happen, but assume he comes in 2019 and has a throw back year - 1,400 yards. Then perhaps 3 more seasons at 750 yards (age 37-39) and he’s in the record books. Sounds about as crazy as a 42 year old who is arguably the best QB in the game. Sports medicine and science has improved & behind a dominant line it could be a history making next 4 seasons for a guy known for being a decisive one cut down hill runner.

I think you missed the point of my post in as much as Frank Gore already made the decision to come to Buffalo. I do agree with you that many high profile free agents refuse to go to Buffalo and some other small market teams. I think some of that relates to the lower potential income from endorsements in small markets.

Dopey Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 As mentioned by the OP, Shady's hammy says "yes, Gore will get there".
auburnbillsbacker Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 With 3 good RBs on the roster I think the over/under for him should be around 500 yards.

Would be nice to see something like that happen in a Bills uni. Last time I remember someone other than Bruce hitting the top 3 on any All-Time list in our uni was probably Lofton in receiving yards. Based on Shady's hammy history, I think its really possible this year. Thoughts? it is quite possible, depending on how they use him. He will not get a majority of the workload, but the fresh legs should add to his productivity when he is on the field. I was thinking he would be in the 400-500 range, so 521 is in the realm of possibility for sure.

Freddie's Dead Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 If it does happen, it's likely that good things are happening to the Bills, so let's do it!
