At some point, it has to end. Generally, when it does, it isn't pretty. I think we will see LeSean McCoy struggle this year, and here's why. Let's start out with a fundamental question. I ask myself this every year for every team to help consider if a player will be this fantasy relevant. The question is always slightly altered, but you will get what I am driving at in a second. Can you name three players on the Bills right now? Sammie Watkins...oh wait. There's Richie Incognito....nevermind...Tyrod Taylor...oh, yeah he is with the Browns now.
To be fair, they do have Charles Clay, the Tight End whos career year was in 2013 with the Dolphins and has never caught more than 6 touchdowns in a season. Actually, for the last 3 years with the Bills, he has never had over 560 total yards. Also, who could forget Kelvin Benjamin, the Wide Receiver who hasn't been fantasy relevant since his rookie year with the Panthers in 2014. Or, Corey Coleman! We can't forget him. The Browns gave him away to the Bills for a seventh-round pick, all while they are having severe Wide Receiver issues of their own.
Who is their quarterback? AJ McCarron or whatever. I don't care enough to look up his name, but I am pretty sure his collarbone got decimated in a preseason game. Or is it Nathan Peterman, the player who's QB rating was 38.4 for the ENTIRE YEAR of 2017 (he threw five interceptions and two touchdowns and 253 yards).
Now that I have explained why the Bills will undoubtedly lose the AFC East, do I need to tell you why the Bills won't be running the ball effectively? Do I really need to point out that he is 30 years old? Isn't it clear they will stack the box against this poor, poor man? I can't wait to see Nathan Peterman run a bootleg and throw an interception in the first half of the first game. It's inevitable. When you can't throw the ball and make the defense respect the passing game, even if it is short passes, they will bottle you up. They won't let you run the ball.
Nobody fears the Bills, and we really shouldn't fear their run game.
I'm sorry LeSean McCoy! It was good while it lasted.
