Muhsin Muhammad: Mike Shula doesn't know how to use a fullback

I agree to an extent but I feel it is a much greater tell when you pull a player out of position for specific plays.

I'm not worried about that because they have run it with Dickson not even in the game too. The only thing I don't want to see anytime soon is CMC running an option play from the wildcat. That was BS.

I guess we should take lessons from Buffalo. They really used Tolbert effectively to spring Shady.  Now if he talked about wide receiver I might take notice.  Fullbacks, not so much

we got rid of tolbert for a reason but that young boy we had in preseason can surely be of service to our offense. also our receivers looked great

Exactly. They don't even use a fullback most of the time just like we don't anymore. Not with CMC in the backfield.

Do you have any clue what you're talking about? Last year the Bills built their run game around the FB position and their OL lead blocking for McCoy in a power run game. Not much has changed this year under McD. They signed DiMarco away from the Falcons specifically for this purpose. We don't have a fullback so we use a fullback 0% of the time. The Bills, and a handful of other teams, still utilize a fullback and in week one it was a part of their offense and McCoy's success.

It was in reference to the possibility of bringing up Alex Armah.

Moose believes a strong - and properly used - fullback is essential to an effective power run game. He questions whether Shula can implement it.

Yeah because we didn't have a great power running game in 2015. I guess he must have taken too many head shots.

I honestly do as well. Why didn't we keep one on the roster anyway.

And how well was Dimarco used yesterday,? How many.plays was he in.  We don't have a full back because they don't work that well and didn't yesterday. McCoys success was playing the Jets not because they have a great scheme. Who else uses a full back on at 50% of their running plays? It didn't happen yesterday? Raiders got 180 yards rushing against the Jets yesterday.

    • The guy has not coach college in ten years and in that span its greatly changed. Still take him over Davis, I want to see the presser and if billy still has fire in his eyes for college non-sense.....plus you know billy will want a multi-million staff.  This is interesting, very....... glad the old guard FINALLY steps aside......
    • Truth. Like when UNC hired Butch Davis and then we get hit for recruiting violations. Like yeah, no poo. Dude coached Miami when they we paying like the 33rd NFL team. What did you expect?
    • He's a hard player to rank, cause he is a young NT. I do see his abilities to branch out among the DL. That's the only way for him to land in the 1st, some team has to believe he's got the stuff to play DE or T3.... I just don't see using 19 on him, I feel there should be around 7 players just ranked higher than him for the Panthers team.  ___________________________________________________________________   Now you are a roster nut like me. Im tossing this into fire, I think a good move is to trade UP, yes rare. Just the roster #s tell me 5 rookies and no more than 2 starters will make the team. I feel 5 is magic number.    QB- 2  BY, Pickett RB- 3   Chubba, Brooks(pls), etienne TE- 4   Sanders, Temble, Evans, Draft pick/major/franks/UDFA OL- 10   Walker, Lewis, Fortner, Hunt, Motown, Zavailla, Samac, Stone, Draft pick, Draft pick/Charles/carter WR-  6   Tmac, XL, Coker, Metch, Horn, Tremay   offense=  25 with 3 draft picks   DL-  6   Brown, Brown, Wharton, Ray, Cam, Hunter/draft pick Ed-   5  Phillips, Nic, Prince, Jones, ST/incoom/hampton ILB-   5  Lloyd, Wallace, Bam, Claud, draft pick CB-    5 Horn, Jackson, Thor, Evans, draft pick/CSN/UDFA SS-  4  Scott, More, Ramsom, Sim   Defense = 25 with 2 picks   ST = known 3+o+d = 53 roster   SO I see only room for 5-6 with factoring in UDFA pool. That tells me to trade up! Bonus the 1st+3rd gets in front of TB yucs. Then use one of the 5ths+2nd to draft another target. That's your two starters and use the 4th, 5th and 6th for the development OTs and what ever the best player are at the pick/DB. The last couple years they have added 2-3 UDFA each year, maybe the same this year too. Soooooooo Im normally 95% trade back, but above made me change my mind. I do not want to waive 5th rounder, I feel thats high with players on the bench.    ?? There's waiver claims too, they have done that each year.
