The other two guys really haven’t shown us anything yet other than a run here n a pass there.
I know it has been 20 years of suck, and we are desperate for good things to come our way but let’s slow our roll with we got our RB, QB, and WR of the future until they prove it on an actual football field in the B & G.

Guice needs to be left out on the field. This rotating the backs is a bunch of BS if you ask me. He is obviously the most explosive back we have yet they keep rotating him. Callahan has a man crush like I've never seen for AP.

The Bills do it too with Gore and Singletary, it's just that respect aspect I guess

I admittedly haven’t watched a whole lot this year, but have seen enough. Maybe it is just coincidence but every time I have watched AP is breaking off 10 yard runs more than once. Besides McLaurin I feel like he is the only offense we have had.
If we had a passing game at all to keep defenses honest I think AP would be killing it but as games wear on teams realize they can just stack the box and key on the run.

Had Haskins showed up 12 minutes later, he wouldn’t have been eligible to play Sunday.

Given that we have no idea what happened before that, is it a little premature to condemn him for what time he showed up?

For all we know he was late because he got a flat tire on the way there.

The eye test doesn't matter when hes only played like 6 quarters of football in 2 years. Rb is on the need list, imo.

Maybe he was taking a selfie with the guy who helped him fix the flat tire?
I don’t know man. Even if it was a flat tire you would think he would leave early enough to compensate for such things. He is a rookie quarterback who is struggling mightily. He should be the first guy there. I bet the o line he was ripping were all there. Not a good look. Not at all.

Difference is at least Gore looks somewhat effective

yup...negativity all the time with zero context. It allows for stupid thinking and teaches younger generations to think less and re act emotionally...basic principles of incompetence.

Yeah, apparently he was outside signing autographs for fans for about 30 minutes prior to this

Exactly, but let us come up with the caption which will cause drama and elevate the posters' status as going viral. Fuck everything else
