What about the Giants ? I like running backs and that Barkley kid is meant to be a future GOAT according to some article I read? Are there any teams that primarily focus on running the ball? I know the NFL is way more focussed on the passing game nowadays.

If they had kept Christian Wade id be all over them just because he's British but they cut him from the roster, not that he would have got much game time as 4th choice RB...

Did he not make the practice squad?

*Looks like they signed him to the practice squad using a unique rule; it prevents other teams from claiming him off the practice squad, but also can't play for the Bills again this year, so they must be interested in seeing if he can make the team next year

I need a team to "support", this is the first time I'll be properly watching an NFL season since the 90's when the Cowboys used to run things with Emmit Smith at RB.

My mind is saying 'Bears' or 'Dolphins' as those were the two teams everyone in the UK seemed to know about when I was a nipper. Dolphins are the worst team in the league this year according to the bible that is Madden 20 so maybe I'll sack them off and go with the Bears although their offense also seems a bit pony, Khalil Mack though....

Tight end is weak but other than that the bears offense is decent. Montgomery looks a massive upgrade on Howard .

Kicker looks an issue though

International pathway program rule I take it

They can cut him and let him become an FA but it’s not as Rule 5 as baseball where someone else has to keep him on PS under IPP

Cowboys and jets are 2 that will run it plenty anyway.
Leveon bell gone to the jets will be interesting to see how they do.

I’m probably one of those Dolphins fans from the early/mid 80’s , I even had a Dan Marino shirt. I just hope they don’t have a losing season.
