CRA

Don't want. Injury issues, is a RB.

It is what it is. Whose fault it is doesn't matter.

FO says lots of things.... NFL players are two things.....production and contracts. Both matter. 800 yards and 3 TDs for example.....that could be GREAT or HORRIBLE production. What decides it is how much the person who got it costs.

Williams wasn't a top 5 RB in 2011. And again, I said based on what he was PAID TO BE.....he didn't do much over those 4 years.

You said "excellent"....I disgareed with that. That is the standard old Williams junk. Claiming he was excellent, or too 5 RB, or whatver wild statement is made about him....someone disagreeing with the over the top claim......then countering with why I don't think he was "good" is crazy. I never said it wasn't a good year. Good isn't excellent

We used him extensively bc he made plays work. Period. Read option runs, play actions, etc. It wasn't bc he was simply a good reciever at RB. It was his between the threat in the read and play action ultimately that earned him those snaps. I don't hate Williams. Hated signing two RBs to featured deals. Hated the impact it had on us. Then I hated having one that wasn't a natural fit in our O. People to this day can't seperate disliking an individual vs disliking a situation created.

Stewart played a larger percentage of offensive snaps than any RB in our entire division in 2011. Why? Bc he made things work. He was the best option. He helped set up the offense. That doesn't show up on his stats....and why stats don't ever tell the full story...Stewart made plays work. That made him the BEST option Not Williams. and Williams had a lot of plays designed for him that year....playing off the threat and attention Cam and Stewart created. Big play for us. Williams gets the stat sheet credit. Newton and Stewart played big roles....but stat sheet wouldn't let you know that. So why did 28 play the largest percentage of snaps in our division?

Meh, there really has never been that much 34 hate.... One person could claim he is old.... Then person 2 claims "Oh my gawd you didn't say something totally awesome and praising 34....why do you think he is a POS, why do you believe he punches kittens, you are crazy" Then people think someone claims he punches kittens....yet no one did. Williams was setup by Hunrey to be in a postion to fail. There was no way for him to not be criticized. Yet people couldn't handle it

Stats never tell a full story....it became obvious staring in 2011 he wasn't fitting well in our new team's direction. They found ways to make some plays for him and some big runs helped mask that on the stat sheet. He wasn't even the preferred RB....so that in itself isn't excellent. And again based on his paycheck vs performance....he didn't do much over that time.

I know they need a body the first 2 weeks and having a vet with their youth DOES make some sense..... Expecting an old and unspectaclar RB to be something different than what he now is.....is a waste of energy. and I repeat, he isn't better than Fozzy and the NFL is FULL of those type RBs of you want to strictly talk on field talent. I said previously that isn't what is signing was about IMO I agree GMs know EVERYTHING and can't be questioned. I said signing to RBs to featured RB deals was a horribly dumb thing and would hurt us. GM still did it. So I guess Hurney was right.

If you look at what he has done based on what his paycheck/cap says he should of done.....he hasn't done much.... And in the NFL not much else matters

about fit....how is Williams the 2nd best option when he doesn't really fit well at anything there. Also the Steelers drafted Archer for a reason. I would expect more to come from him (was just a rookie) AND other RBs. Williams doesn't fit the power runner or change of pace role....so how will he be the default second best option? There are Fozzy type RBs all over this league and Williams ain't a better option than that

Point is simply...Williams has one broken 7 TDs once in his career. He ain't doing it now. Not as an old and unspectacular RB who will be the 3rd or 4th best optionin Pitt if he works out

Pretty sure Williams had more 1 yard TDs than Stewart in 08... So....

Who? DeAngelo? Williams will be an unspectacular between the 20s runner who sees some work the first two weeks and then is a JAG.

Stewart has at double digit TDs more than once....so I guess that makes it about even

At least Luke was attempting to do something....unlike the last play of the game Also if memory serves that wasn't even the standard PI Luke committed all year...was on the light end

I think you have to credit Buffalo to everyone's new favorite CB.

Yes. By NFL standards. He lumps into the bottom tier of what a NFL WR is.

Dave came into town talking Hog-Mollies.... Last year it was Chandler or Bell could be the answer....now it is THe Blindside Seems like maybe we have quickly figured out his flaw....and all GMs usually have several. You need talent Dave not just size

His ceiling just isn't high enough to really be continuing this experiment

Bell IMO is a guy we likelt see again. One TC injury and he will be snatched up by us in a heart beat if avaliable He also wouldn't be bad as a backup T. Knows system and can go either side. Issue has always been pretending he was a starter

I like him. Just wish he could jump....

day late and a dollar short Pete....

compared to who? He is much better than Bell at LT
