NFL 2010 Offseason Thread

Headspace is right (God I hate saying that). Barber should be a short yardage specialist/changeup only. Back when he was only that when Julius Jones was around, he ran like a beast; however, once he was named the feature back, he started to worry about banging heads too often and changed his style. He needs to revert badly.

Choice should start, Felix third down/homerun threat, Barber short yardage/eat clock.

[Flarega]

Yeah we've all heard about his short yardage.

[Stiker]

2 yards bitches

Isn't that the same shit I've been saying this whole time, Headspace is just pointing out the flaw of "3rd down back" as in he will only play on 3rd downs. While I think Choice should start and carry most of the load, there's no way they will name him the starter. It will hopefully be Felix next year (it's been hinted at that there may be a change this year), with Choice as the change up and Barber on eat clock. Choice is probably the best 3rd down back on the team in my opinion (look at 2008 december schedule), he's really good on screens and slants, but I'm not sure of what Felix is capable of doing.

[Headspace]

Barber has the perfect build to go short yardage, if he wasn't too busy trying to make cuts. Put him on the goal line or 4th and 1 and just pound it.

I mean, that's what they should've done last year, even though Flozell would've brought it back with a holding anyways.

Chargers. Game.

[Stiker]

Felix isn't a bad receiver at all. He would definitely be a threat to break a quick swing pass or screen for a big gain.

Spoiler: show

As long as he doesn't tin man it

[Headspace]

Chargers. Game.

Fix. Your. O-Line.

[Stiker]

Chargers. Game.

Thing is he fucked himself over by changing the way he runs. He isn't a battering ram anymore. If he just went back to saying "fuck it, I'm running you all over" it'd be a whole other ballgame.

Edit: and what Headspace said (fuck stop making me agree with him)

[Headspace]

You could run Tony Romo up the gut for 3 yards if your o-line didn't suck so bad

[Chun Liroy]

You know calling the same play 3 times doesn't help the Oline, or the fact that they made a hole and barber decides to run away from it.

[Weltall]

Do Bills fan just like to settle for being average? Jason Campbell + the Bills = last in your division for the forseeable future. Not like that isn't going to happen next 3 seasons anyway.

Might as well trade for Jamarcus Russell while you're at it and let the two compete in camp.

Yeah. I think part of has to do with the barber rule. No punching or whatever.

[Stiker]

I'm sorry, there is no excuse for not being able to gain a yard. Battle in the trenches, who wants it more, etc. Emmitt Smith made a damn living on vulturing one yard TDs and EVERYONE knew it was coming.

The bills would kill to be average. An 8-8 season and they'd flip their shit, seriously.

Campbell would be a significant upgrade over Trent Edwards, Ryan Fitzpatrick, and Brian Brohm.

True, but you're placing the blame on the Oline, I'm placing it on Barber.

[Stiker]

I'm placing it on both of them.

[Chun Liroy]

Fair enough. I don't think the OLine played that horrible all season long until it came to the Vikings game. They are just really old and we need to get young there.

[archibaldcrane]

Leroy your sig is killing me, can't scroll for shit while I wait for it to load constantly.

[Chun Liroy]

Stop using DSL.
