Devin Singletary 1st half vs 2nd half

[Rigotz]

Does anyone have access to 1st half vs 2nd half stats?

 

I would be curious to see Singletary’s 1st half vs 2nd half stats, particularly because I have a theory that we don’t give him the ball enough in the 2nd half.

 

He looked great in the 1st half against the Vikings, then got 4 touches in the second half and that feels like a theme.

That looks like defenses figure out our run / blocking concepts at halftime and shut them down 
 

Cook not getting the ball in the 2nd half was shameful.  He looked good on his few touches.  I'm sure he would have loved a chance to respond to his brother's long TD with a big run of his own

Cook and Dorsey still owe me 120yds and 2tds from last game. I put my posting reputation on the line saying he would have a big game last week and they laid down. That's not something that I'll forget nor forgive them for. Redemption is the only way those two will get back into my good graces.

Cook and Hines should start getting 10-15 touches a game between runs and receptions

Our run game has been ***** for years. No consistency and Allen running has been the only real consistent bright spot, which isn't enough.  I still think OL is the biggest problem. Is it blocking schemes or just lack of top OL talent. RB's have also been underwhleming but I can't tell if its lack of vision... but the OL definitely is not making consistent holes

Picked up last year at the end of the season. Everyone thought it was Bates, that’s why we signed him.

Is that right? Our leading running back has only 134 second half rushing yards in the entire season! Frightening.

He had opportunities to score a TD and get first downs. He could do neither. He appeared kinda weak to me.

[Rigotz]

The entire season he has 3 rushes on third down for a total of 2 yards.

 

0.7 YPC …. wow.

 

There’s your predictability. Either Josh runs on third and short, or he throws.

Yeah our running backs suck

This is the whole teams problem imo and the same issue cropped up at the midway point of last season but they figured it out down the stretch.

 

Dorsey seems to have 0 confidence in our teams ability to pick up 3 or 4 yards on a tough run that the defense knows is coming. That’s making us press hard for tds in the red zone and leading to critical errors

But SoCal, we are the Bills, we "aren't good" at running, and besides, Josh can always do more.

I can’t help but wonder if we run well in the first half because teams don’t care if we run.

I can't help but wonder if that contributes to our #2 ranking in points scored in the first half and our #20 ranking in the 2nd half.

As do I. 

[ngbills]

59 of his 92 carries on 1st & 10. Averages 5yds per carry.

3 3rd down carries all season...0 on 4th down.

Yep I thought that was part of the solution myself, Him and Brown..... but here we are yet again same exact problems no consistency

I would think defenses having to respect run and pass in the first half and being up by 3 and 4 scores in the second half is a determining factor in these numbers.
