Biggest issue is player being willing to take cheap shot on Josh even if penalized/fined/suspended because player is confident that team will reward him. I'd rather have Thurman. Barry Sanders had far too many negative plays. I was gonna go Jim Thorpe. 🤣 Quote

Thurman had two years with a 4.9 YPC 1991 with the Bills and 2000 with the Dolphins. His career YPC is 4.2 (below Singletary's 4.5 YPC this year and a career YPC of 4.6 in his 4 seasons) Quote

The Bills are a pass first team, the reason they don't keep opposing DCs up at night trying to figure out how to stop our running backs isn't because the running backs are any worse than other teams, on the contrary they rank top 3 in YPC, they are not worried because the Bills run/pass ratio is so pass heavy. The reason teams game plan against the Barkleys and Henrys of the league is that they know they are going to see them carry the ball about a zillion times a game, with Singletary, if they see him carry the ball 10 times a game it would be a lot.

No! I was waiting for your analysis of how Barry Sanders compared to Singletary. I was wondering if I made a better choice than Thurman. Quote
ndirish1978 Posted November 4, 2022 Posted November 4, 2022 Beane was on Schein today. I don't have Sirius. Is there a link anywhere? Quote

Sanders is somewhere in the neighborhood of 54 years old; I doubt he could put up stats anywhere near what the top running backs today do ... you chose poorly. 1 Quote

If a young Barry Sanders existed in today's league, he would lead the league in rushing. Quote

Einstein Posted November 4, 2022 Posted November 4, 2022 Thank you for giving the summary. Very helpful. Quote
BuffaloBill Posted November 5, 2022 Posted November 5, 2022 Don’t have the subscription but sounds like a great interview. Beane is really good at what he does. The Bills were lucky to land him. Quote
