White should be exiled to Duuuuuuvvvvaaaaaaaaallllllllll

Rachaad White trade rumors all over the Interweb

He’s not going anywhere. As Fire and others have referenced, we have a RB committee because we don’t have a single super-RB that can do it all.  You cannot replace Rachaad White’s contribution in this offense. Period.

Bucky could & likely will, be better at blocking, but we didn’t draft him for that. Rachaad was drafted to be the all purpose back - and he is elite in some roles - Tucker was a happy accident in that he can spell Bucky and has been developing. 

Wanting to get rid of Rachaad is idiocy.

There's no correlation between his receiving skills and winning games. There's actually a negative correlation between White's snap counts and the Bucs winning. The highest offensive state correlation is rush attempts. I'm not buying it's only because the Bucs were winning. The Bucs are a highly effective running team (minus White) and don't do it enough. Bucky and Tucker's rush attempts should count for approximately 50% of the offense, not 24%.

If only Tucker could stop blocking air in pass pro and leading the team in fumbles per carry…

Funny you should say that. I went back and watched the All-22 vs the Lions and White was supposed to help Skule on one of the sacks and wanted no part of it. He loves releasing early though, don't they have pills for that?

Yes. It’s part of the daily regimen for people who cosplay as NFL GM’s on sports message boards.

Remember, any cosplay sessions that last over 3 hours, should result in seeking medical attention immediately.

The highest offensive state correlation is rush attempts. I'm not buying it's only because the Bucs were winning.

The team was the 4th highest scoring team in the first half, and that was mostly because of passing the ball. Baker Mayfield led the NFL in 1st Half Passing (2,455 yards) and Touchdowns (21), while being 3rd in attempts.

You can buy whatever you want. The reality is the team came out throwing the ball, scoring points, and then taking the air out of the ball after that. Overall, the team was 10th in passing attempts and 10th in rushing attempts. Your arguments continue to be poor and unpersuasive.

They came out throwing vs Dallas and scored 0 points in the 1st qtr. No?

Came out throwing vs New Orleans and had 6 points at half time despite Bucky averaging 9 yards per carry. No?

Weren't you mansplaining statistics to someone a few days ago? Those are what statisticians call outliers.

The team was the 4th highest scoring offense in the first half for the 2024 season, and that includes those outliers you mentioned.

Now, do the other 15 games.

Surely you're smart enough to understand that if he's out there a lot means we're in passing mode and we're down... And those games you're more likely to lose. Yes?

Surely you understand that some of his best production came with key weapons out (IE he stepped up) and we're less likely to win games without Evans and Godwin.

Surely you understand that your stats are statistically outliers and our offense was one of the best first half offenses in the league?

Surely you understand the importance of sample size?

Don't know which thread it was but I posted the run/pass ratios in the close games and it was ridicuously high in favor of the pass.

Here's the brilliant 1st half Bronco play calling.

14 passes, one of which returned on an INT inside the 10

6 White carries for 17 yards

4 Bucky carries for 49 yards

Can we please stop pretending White should be getting all these touches?

I don’t think so, because your arguments continue to be poor and unpersuasive.

And this will surely continue to flummox you, but the Bronco game is also included in the 4th highest scoring offense in the first half.
