Singletary was close to fumbling with seconds remaining

I'm not sure I would say that was close to a fumble.

 

The ball was completely out out of his hands. How much closer can a player be to fumbling without actually fumbling?

You're far from right. If you were right, Singletary would have ACTUALLY fumbled and the Ravens would have ACTUALLY recovered. 

 

Would you please just go away? Your drivel and gloom and doom aren't welcomed here.

“You would be right about him ALMOST fumbling, if he ACTUALLY fumbled”

 

Quite the argument you have there.

it's pretty similar to your argument.

Allen almost threw several interceptions against the Ravens. It’s time to move on from him. His arm arrogance almost lost us the game!

Did he put the ball on the ground "Einstein"?

I use that name loosely. Doesn't really apply to you.

and you didn't even get my quote right. 

 

You are such a douchenozzle.

Analogous point to ponder…we almost won SBXXV! Where’s our trophy?

I find this thread to be hilarious because the very people ranting about an "almost" fumble would be the first people to shut down a conversation about an almost pick six in a loss as "should have, could have, would have"

Wasn’t even that close Singletary had the ball move a bit and then gathered it close to himself.

So, what is your recommended actions?

Do the Bills cut Devin?  Demote him to RB3?  What is the bottom line here?

Definitely not cut him.

My recommendation would be to look for an upgrade at RB. Whether that be a trade, draft pick or free agent.

 

Our line is not good at run blocking - no argument there. But the inability of Singletary to see the field, combined with his ball security issues, necessitates an upgrade.

You’re confusing “almost lost the ball to the opponent” with “almost fumbled”. Fumbling is simply losing the ball. That doesn’t mean it touched the ground or was recovered by the opponent.

At least Taiwan Jones hasn't fumbled this year.

I’ll be totally honest, I didn’t realize that he came that close to fumbling. Have you ever noticed that sometimes it’s less about what you do and more about how you do it? Especially if there is an established pattern. Some people just don’t read the room very well.  🤷‍♂️

Devin is an UFA in March so you might get your wish.

Until next year nothing else will happen.

Once again, your interpretation is wrong.

Lot's of "realists" in chat rooms will proudly say they don't believe in moral victories and then turn around and start whole threads about moral defeats.... that this or that win wasn't good enough. 

[buffaloboyinATL]

Shouldn't we be saying he did a great job securing the ball, instead of saying he almost lost the game?  Now NOT fumbling, when someone tries to punch out the ball, is a reason to bench someone?! What's next, complaining about someone on Defense almost not sacking the opposing QB?
