Buck is an awesome player for us, I don't get the hate. He's good between the tackles, a reliable do everything back, and doesn't turn the ball over. Perfect for 3rd and short. Also he plays special teams. Give the man some love come on...

Hes boring as hell. Our RB2 needs to avg over 4 ypc with how little they get to touch the ball or at least be a threat in the passing game while Collins carries the load. Our running back standards have decreased significantly if we like Buck as our 2.

A team having two running backs that average over 4 yds a carry is very rare. And Buck averaged 3.9

There were a couple that I can think of last year, Saints, Cowboys. It's not realistic IMO

Pittsburgh:

James Connor 4.5 YPC
Stevan Ridley 4.2 YPC

It's easier to maintain that average when you're not getting the ball that much and that's what Buck should be doing is providing that change of pace spark.

Rice was at 4.2 as our #2 and Mcgahee was at 3.9

Once Rice took over, Mcgahees YPC went up to 5.0! 544 yards rushing and 12 touchdowns on 5 YPC. That there's what we need or at least a guy that can catch and make plays.

Connor and Ridley barely had 200 yards rushing combined, so the average is there but not sure the point. Levon is their Bell cow...

Buck Allen is a solid 3rd option who pass protects and catches passes out of the backfield. He's a straight line runner with very little wiggle who can do some damage if the hole is big enough.

[Shrubbs]

For me, Buck contributes on special teams, which is very valuable, while carving out a great niche on offense. His aversion to fumbling, his multifaceted skill set, and his reliability make him my favorite back on the team to throw in at 3rd and 2. He can do a little of everything, pass protection, pass catching, and battering into the pile to convert. He's very solid, and a true asset on special teams, and has always been durable. Let's not forget he led the team in receiving yards pretty deep into the season last year.

Ravens running back Kenneth Dixon left the field with about an hour left in practice. He walked off with a trainer. This was Dixon’s fourth practice back since returning from a hamstring injury.

Hamstring issues are complex and it's going to need more rest... I still say he may be in danger due to not being available....

Dixon is not going to stay healthy Culex. Don't do this to yourself.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

I still won’t be surprised if they bring in another RB after the cuts begin.

There are no cut days during the preseason, everyone gets cut all at once now from 90 down to 53.
