Singletary has 10 touches this year. And 5 receptions.  Not sure how you declare him special or a good replacement for shady.  That dude is a playmaker. Which we could use right now.

A: Why has this devolved into a Shady Thread?

B: I am not a fly on the wall at OBD, but I believe that a large part of Shadys release has to do with loyalty to the player who’s on field time would be greatly reduce this year and who obviously still has time left to be an effective player and establish his place in the Hall of Fame.

The oldest RB in the league played very well against the Pats....he was our only offense.  The play where Allen got injured wasn't a running play.  

I was shocked at first with the news but understand it now.

McCoy is one of the highest paid RB's in the league.  He would have been a part time player with us and that's a lot of cash for that.

They weren't going to cut McCoy if Singletary didn't show all that promise in camp.  We've seen him and what he can do....he looks to be special.

 

 

We are eating the cap anyways. Money was a non-issue

Well then give us some news on his concussion protocol

Adam Benigni said on Monday that he thinks it's highly unlikely Allen plays. 

It didn't sound like he had an inside info, but Vic Carrucci and the other TBN reporters were at the desk nodding. 

Take it for what it's worth. 

I think we'll know everything we need to know tomorrow. If he's not out at practice in some form (shorts/t-shirt) by Wednesday, I think we can prepare for the Matt Barkley show.

Paying way too much for a part time player is always an issue.

Having 3 starting RB’s when there’s only one ball is an issue.  We’ve tried that once and it was an issue.

I would rather get Singletary his game experience than keeping Shady for his 10 carries a game.  If Shady was going to be our bell cow back, then yes of course keep him...but this wasn’t the case.

Josh Allen is eating wings at Anchor Bar right now?

 

The buzzards are circling.

Well so far no roster moves for a Qb so that's promising.?‍♂️

 

Wouldn't they just call up Davis Webb from the practice squad?

I would doubt they'd call up David Webb until Saturday. No need to give the Titans any extra time to prepare for the starter. Once you call up Davis Webb it's obvious Barkley is starting

Belichick's son may have the scoop.

Honestly, I don't think there is any way Allen plays.  IF he isn't cleared to practice tomorrow, I just don't see it, especially with the Bye being next week.  If he isn't cleared tomorrow, I would guess they take things slow and give him a full 2 weeks to get healthy.  Just my guess, though.

seriously. i know its not something we pay attention to on other teams but can anyone list any documented protocols that started on a sunday and ended in time for a player to take the field the following sunday?

 

just doesn't seem like it happens anymore.

 

It would be pretty fantastic if someone could find info on this.

Honestly it's not horrible if Allen can't play. It might be good for his development. It's a little unconventional but it might help him to have one game on the bench plus the bye week to refocus himself. Then come back with the Dolphins as a warm up game.

 

The Titans game is going to be a gritty defensive showdown no matter what. I'm fine with Barkley taking the reins for this one.

I certainly hope you are wrong and the brain trust at OBD is making decisions about the Bills is based on who helps us win the most as opposed to getting guys who played most of their career elsewhere into the Hall. 

 

We could have cut Yeldon.  Looks to me like their afraid to give him the football.  Reminds me of last year when we had a back up QB we were afraid to play.  These types of player decisions are disturbing.

Now that he's gone I think it's OK to admit that McCoy was coming off two sub-standard(to be kind) seasons and was woeful in pass pro and unplayable in short yardage and didn't exact any toll on a defense if given a lot of carries etc..

We have one starting RB the last 2 weeks...4 weeks into the season. 

 

Even if Singletary was heathy, I’d rather pay Shady to be on the roster than to take the cap hit and not be on the roster.

A. Fair. I’ll stop hijacking the thread after this post. Originally I was responding to a post here on here on whether or not Gore could be productive handling the work load given his age and mileage.  He wouldn’t need to if we weren’t eating his dead cap for him not to be here. 

 

B. I tend (hope) to agree with this point. From a roster perspective we are better with his 10 carries and his cost, than without him...for the same cost.

I had considered that Allen got a mind f'ng by Bill B and was out of sorts. he got a bit humbled sorting out those Defensive alignments and finding guys not getting open with carzy pass rush
Okay to sit him a week by me. and then get the bye. come back to run roughshod over the Fish and get his Mojo back

I want to see Barkley after a week practicing with the ones. good for him to get reps as well.

Gotta bring up Webb though. when ? saturday ?
