    Maybe #88 makes us better than with Ward.

    This could be Wards last year with big contract.

    We need to sign these three young Wr. Let Mendy walk and sign these guys. We can find another RB who is scared to get hit.

    Troy has lost a bit. He is not as sure in coverage as he usually is. And when does Troy miss a pass that hits him on the numbers

    I think you're spot on. Ward brings value but not much of it is on the field. I like Mendy but he's much too expendable to sign to a second contract.

    I dont understand all the hate for Mendy. You do realize our team is a pass oriented offense with a weak oline. As much as I would love for Arians to use 2 back package of mendy and redman and have ben hit the PA pass, its not going to happen when Arians is in town. Mendy is a really explosive runner, the problem is he is not being used effectively. What I have seen this game is almost like Arians looks at the stat sheet and goes "oh I only called Mendys number 6 times today lets give it to him 2-3 times if he doesn't break a 10 yarder lets go back to throwing"

    Mendy is not a good goaline back because he bounces everything.
    Redmen hits it in there and gets positive yards.
    Redmen is better down there.

    I agree. The days of "pounding the rock" are gone and we are now a passing team, and with this talent we probably should be.

    Exactly. We're a passing team and Mendy isn't being used effectively. So let him walk and re-sign our talented WR (Wallace) and focus on getting some athletic pass blocking OL. That's not a dig on Mendy, just a sound business decision.

    I agree with you that Redmen is better in short yardage, my point was based off the in general tone I get from people on the board and even espn comments that mendy is no good.

    Now that is what Mendy is good at. In space he is good.

    He's using those little dump off passes well today.
