People with something to prove, who possess talent, usually prove what they want to prove. 3. Never underestimate a Man and his desire to succeed. 4. Fred = UDFA : Antonio = UDFA 5. Comfort and entitlement breeds laziness 6. Our 3rd round draft picks are too comfy. 7. Antonio Williams has earned the right to battle for the #2 spot. Versus the "NuMbEr 1 DeFenSe" in the nfl, with backups on the O line, Williams really impressed. He was punishing dolphins out there... His desire to be great, his desire to prove his talents, to me, harkened Fred Jackson all day long... Sometimes all these guys need is a shot. See: Eckler, Austin. My hot take is we've whiffed on Moss (and to an extent Singletary). The remedy is all on Mosses shoulders... either he gets hungry fast, or he gets humbled. That's my take. Flame away. 1

4BillsintheBurgh Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Running the ball is one part of being a running back. This coaching staff seems to be willing to let folks compete so if he can get the rest of the game down he might have a chance.
bmur66 Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) Harkens as in " is similar to" I think IMO Singletary and Moss are too much alike. Williams looked like a breath of fresh air and he looked very good. The coaches know about his blocking ability and ball security. If he has that down he may just get a shot. One of the coaches on the sideline was having a cow telling everybody "I told you so......" Edited January 4, 2021 by bmur66 1
Maybe Someday Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Just another PS stash on a very deep team. I assume Yeldon will be gone unless more exposing photos become available so Williams will compete next year. Moss has been coming on strong lately so don’t think that pick was a miss. 2 1
BuffaloBobs Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 A little bit reminiscent of Willie Parker running wild against the Bills in the season closer in 2004 -- perhaps a preview of things to come. That said, not down on Singletary or Moss at all -- if he has any special teams ability it wouldn't be a surprise at all to see him on the 53 next year. 1

Antonio Williams is more like a very poor man's version of Karlos Williams. Straight ahead runner only.......no wiggle to his game........not very athletic.........opposite of an Austin Eckler who can beat you with the run or the pass. I mentioned in another thread that some fans were giddy about the future of Darick Holmes and Tim Tindale after the 1995 Dolphins playoff blowout.........you can't put much stock into what happens during broken football time. If so then Dean Marlowe would be getting a 5 year $50M+ contract this offseason. Edited January 4, 2021 by BADOLBILZ 2
Freddie's Dead Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Typically, the word "harkens" is followed by the phrase "back to". The title "Antonio Williams Performance Harkens Back to FredEX" would have made more sense. That said, comparing Williams to FredEx is just a bit premature. 3 2

YattaOkasan Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 I would also like to see him block in the passing game as thats a critical need for our RBs that I know Moss and Singeltary have done well at.
Johnny Hammersticks Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 I still think Da’Rick Rogers got the shaft. 5

This is exactly what I was thinking of when I was watching the game. That result really sucked. Much better feeling on this side of the equation 😂 1
