Skins v. Eagles Gameday Thread

[Ruhskins]

All of you people bitching about AP are being very ignorant. AP is a pure runner, not much of a pass catcher, he doesn't play special teams. You can't get rid of him because you need to see how Guice does, but you can't keep him active on gameday because this team cannot afford the luxury of having a back RB that doesn't play ST. Plain and simple.

Exactly right. People are so quick to condemn the front office. I havenr looked but i doubt there are many teams with 4 game day active running backs where 4th RB doesnt play teams.

I bet the same people that are saying that we should have moved on from AP, would be blasting the team if they did.

So you’re gonna play Smallwood over the greatest RB of this decade, and someone who’s been in our system a WEEK? Get the F out of here

Smallwood plays special teams, AP only gets reps if Guice fails.

There is at least one active player on our team today that should not be so AP can be. He has more than proved his ability to help the run game, and we are one play from a guy coming off an injury from needing him. You cannot in your right mind tell me there isn’t someone less valuable who is active on our team right now.

A different viewpoint although i doubt it will change your mind

Suppose Guice struggles his first few carries, if AP is active then AP being the competitor he is will be pushing to get in, by being inactive he can focis on encouraging Guice this week and be a sideline coach for him giving him his insights.

From Guices standpoint think of the added confidence he gets knowing the team has put it on his shoulders

Just other ways to look at it.

Ahhh bullshit. Stop apologizing for this organization. You are telling me he isn’t more valuable than at least one other guy standing on our sidelines?

This was a pure coaching decision. I like to think instead of bitching mindlessly bitching at everything. AP being an inactive has been discussed by JP and some other folks this whole week. It is unfortunate, but the team needs special teams players.

Look at the decision makers you are putting your faith in though. Lol.
And just because you disagree doesn’t mean someone else is simply bitching. You can look back when I told you TW wouldn’t be here today and u said the same thing about bitching and blah blah blah

Sitting down the 5th top rusher last season isn’t bitching.
Looks like mismanagement, just like Jordan Reed...and TW to an extent

Having a 4th RB dressed that doesn't play ST is mismanagement.

Jordan Reed has a concussion, where's the mismanagement there? Trent Williams is being a straight up bitch, where is the mismanagement there.

The team has done plenty of mismanagement so far (not re-upping Schreff, depending on Flowers, etc., etc.), no need to make up shit.

Also TD Davis!! #HeATerp and FU to all of you doubters!

Oh come on, don't tell me there was no way to have AP active over any other player: starting with Smallwood, is he really more valuable than our best offensive player from last year ? Is DRC that irreplaceable ?
