Thank you for making your first post (and topic) a useful one. I'm sure it reflects the quality of all your future posts.

And sorry we're so hard on people here at the huddle. We aren't very friendly this season. :(

But to respond, there's no way you voluntarily let go of Williams, unless you want to see him become a hall of fame player somewhere else.

depending on how next season goes, I wouldn't blame him if he wanted to walk away. 2nd highest yard per carry average and he still isn't getting the amount of carries he deserves. It makes me sick knowing Chris Johnson gets 25'ish +/- a few carries a game, and we're lucky if Fox gives Williams/Stewart 25 carries COMBINED. He has the potential to go for 2k yards if given a f**kin chance..

I'm not saying stop splitting carries, I'm saying we should be calling 35+ runs a game, if not more.

With that said, I would be devastated if Williams walked :[

depends on who the management is after the season..i know shanahan wouldn't give a crap about trying to keep him..all RBs are expendable.

Maybe his exit from Denver helped him see the error of his ways. Last year the lack of a rushing attack really hurt them toward the end of the season. They used to rely on the blocking scheme but could have benefited from a workhouse like they had with Terrell Davis back in 1998-99. Which is what Williams is to us. A workhorse with breakaway speed.

After looking at this article, I was reminded of how many 1000 yard rushers Denver has produced since Shanahan went there in 1995.

Still I can't see us going after Shanahan. Although we tried before to hire the super bowl coach and hopefully learned from the failure.

    • Yup. Hopefully  Brandon adds some muscle this off-season but he'll probably be resting his shoulder for a while so I doubt it. Miles should probably be replaced but I don't think we find a better 4th option to be honest. So is it better to add depth along side williams and Coby or try to upgrade the 4/5 . I think adding depth will probably be more beneficial than trying to upgrade starters and bank on Brandon and Kons continuing development. I really don't think they are going to make the playoffs unfortunately. I think the big hole they put themselves in has exhausted them. They've been amazing since January 1 but I think it's come at a cost and their legs are gone. 
    • The issue is the predictability of it all in a Bryce Young led offense. In 4th down attempts the Jets were at 41 and we were at 40. And we were 4th in conversation %. We were 25th in the league in 3rd down conversion because we faced so many 3rd and longs in part due to playcalling on 1st and 2nd down but more largely due to the limitations that cannot be overcome.  And people want us to spend another 1st rounder on WR as if it is going to magically give Bryce physical talent he will never possess. It's a shame we cut off our own nose just to put ourselves in this frustrating predicament.
