Good upgrade

We will see... he said he will be focusing on his pass protection in the offseason,  which was his weakness they were saying last year in practice etc. 

Without that, he won't get on the field as much.   I know your disgust for the hardworking,  fundamental, popular team player like Gains because you can't write a movie about a guy like that... but those fundamentals allow teams to run the full playbook.  

You all love Shady...but forget two awful efforts in pass blocking that got Vick and Foles injured.  While the " choking"  Barkley was dominant in pass protection and blitz pick up when it mattered at the end.  

The fundamental stuff that isn't flashy is very important in the game of football.

Shipley is better than Sanders or Swift in my opinion

Maybe he can be but Shipley hasn’t shown anything yet he has the potential to be a good RB though nice skill set…. No need to put him over players when he has hardly played though

Signed Harrison Bryant former Raider/browns TE could be mistaken him with another player but isn’t he a fairly good blocking TE? 

Never hear of him,so that's what I know

RIght, get any decent RB past level 2 and they are gone, yet this is surprisingly dynamic to you? I would also have liked Najee Harris

Think about it…they weren’t shocked and surprised Shipley made the big play…that’s your third string Rb. They already clearly been working on his very next level skills. He’s a talent! It wax a very good draft pick. We haven’t been able to really see him do his thing yet…but wasn’t because he wasn’t capable.

It was all about Gainwell had a huge preseason leading up to the year and earned the backup job. Gainwell was Siri’s boy …being forced in even as a rookie. Gainwell’s gone now though…Shipley is a whole other level.

Just being forced in with so many touches... again perhaps because Sanders couldn't pass protect if GB or MJK were blitzing ( all due respect) and Scott sucked except vs the Giants.

They needed someone to protect your boy.

Still to this day don’t understand your Gainwell hate…. Dude was never really forced in he was our only capable blocker when we had swift… even last year spelling Barkley Gainwell made plenty of key plays for us….

Gainwell was about as good of an all around backup as you can get in the NFL

First string O line let that 3rd string RB shine

Even listening to them on the sideline…they weren’t surprised he made the big play….they’re already in discussions about how they’ve been working on him breaking away to close out and finish making the big plays.

Lol... you mean running the ball with nobody near you!

Right ..I liked Gainwell for the versatility reasons. He’s seemed to understand situational football also. We could trust him to do his job being a vet. But sure…I agree…the dynamic young playmaker waiting to be unleashed…I’d say his pass blocking would be his area he needs to improve the most on.

Sanders shined too,then he flopped when he left(ask Carolina about it). IDK that Swift was a powerhouse last year either. If you don't have the O line your RB won't do diddly

Plus a very popular teammate... you don't get that way playing RB or WR ( positions that are naturally selfish in nature) ...due to his work ethic and unselfish play.  

It just doesn't fit Ham's agenda of writing the movie. He needs the flash.

Yeah…it was a narrative about Gainwell being the better receiving back than Sanders also. Yet Gainwell never did sniff Sanders rookie season as a receiving back before Siri got here. Gainwell wasn’t some stellar pass protector either. But at least had a brain …unlike Sanders.

No, it's the intangible dynamics. You need to understand this

Dude... you bad mouthed Gainwell for 4 years.... still doing it.  You have zero people fooled.

Our Oline was built to run block maul opponents into oblivion. Glad we look to utilize that advantage.

Last season I gave Gainwell props for earning the backup RB role. I like Gainwell..as the third RB.

Hey... 2019.  Remember 2017 SF cleared cap..  how about Siri in 2021

You must love Wentz then...because it's only about 2017?

But... now that both Sanders and Gainwell are off the team... we will compare production for the rest of their careers. 

You called Sanders a " special talent" so we can see now.

The translucent aura of intangible dynamic waves that ebb and flow over him. The constant flow of vast energy emerging at just the right time to produce the galaxial power that transcends thought

Sanders got stats in zero pressure situations.   Even as a rookie Gainwell had to be on the field when it mattered.  Sanders blows,  you can tell his teammates wanted zero part of him

He crapped his pants in Carolina

Shipley is going to take the 5 yard Gainwell carry and make it 25. Gainwell just didn’t have that burst and explosion. That’s why I just couldn’t go along with your(No Mas and FL) plan of Gainwell being our starting RB in whatever committee approach. He’s a versatile RB that can do everything decent. Trust him to come in and do his job. Nothing wrong…or bashing about saying that.

I liked the Shipley pick all along. Just a far superior talent to Gainwell. But I manned up and stated Gainwell earned the backup job to begin the season with a stellar PS.
