Agreed. It’s his best chance to showcase potential teams that he still has gas left in the tank. If he stays relatively healthy and grasps the playbook quickly he will have ample opportunities to play. He might be arriving at the right time seems like Columbo has these OLs working to get right. He is satisfied with there individual skill it is more technique and getting time on the field together. I have a feeling the OL is gonna improve as the games go by. It should be better next week with half the 49ers DL out. No Bosa or Thomas. |

Lewis' numbers were good in Tenn and in NE 549 for 2331 (4.2 a carry) . He is not Freeman (why he was singed) and better than Gallman. I hope if Gallman gets the start ( I doubt it) He proves me wrong. The coaches see something in the way he runs the ball . They do not like. He is in his 4th season and has not moved one rung up the ladder on a bad team. This year he dropped a rung. There is a reason Gallman has not carried the ball 200 times in his entire career. he runs kind of high has dropped some passes and fumbled a few times got benched by Shurmur to. Think he is a good 3rd option. I do too. I said it in a post in this thread. He is good in his role. But that is all he is. If the coaches belived he was. They would expect more out of him. |

They still have Armstead who is the pretty good but Bosa kills this defense when we played them in 2018 before he was there we moved the ball pretty good and won the game no JimmyG either. but once Bosa came onto the seen that D went from OK to really good Werner has to be accounted for also. |

1 Year up to $3M is not a bad deal. Understand he took less than other teams offered him. Likes his situation with the Giants.

I’m not expecting much from him, our very own Barkley couldn’t run behind this line. Doesn’t mean Freeman will now. But, he’s a pro, can play out of the back field. And if needed be. Can be a workhorse. This move had to be made. We could not go into the rest of the season with Gallman Jr and Lewis as our backs. I just wonder what type of conditioning he is in |

Apparently Freeman took less money to play with the Giants. Had several offers. Must think he has more playing time here with Barkley down. they said the money I was looking for it? |

He’s in shape, but not football shape. He knows what to do, he will get up to pace fairly quickly. Time is not on their side, newly signed veterans know they have to pick up the playbook fast and get into football shape even faster. I find it unrealistic that he will be dressed next week. The following week I think he’ll make his debut. |

Judge was working with him during training camp trying to use him on teams. IDK: There is a reason for him being on the back burrner. Gallman is cheap and keeps his mouth shut, probably why he is still on th roster. This is a contract year for him. # threes are not a rare commodity. He can be replaced with another that can do the same thing for the same price. |

I have to say if he perfects his game a bit ball security and what not he can be a solid option he is a one cut down hill runner and runs bigger then he is. If by some miracle this OL improves enough to start moving the ball on the ground Freemen and Gallmen can be a nice one two punch as far as pounding defense down. |

He’s been a disappointment but he’s had a good summer, I’m willing to give him a chance. Can’t get excited about two 29 year old washed up backs. |

No one ever claimed he’s great. Me personally, I like the way he plays. He runs extremely hard, is a decent receiver. And can pick up a blitz if need be. Is he a starter in this league? No, but he can be a complimentary back. As for why hasn’t he gotten that chance? He has no room for error. Once he makes a mistake he is the forgotten man. What he needs is a coach who has faith in him, and gives him an opportunity to showcase his abilities. |

I do not think I am . I was not about Bettcher when Iquestioned why he needed 80% of his defensive players changed 2 years in a row durning the offseason last year. |

To me he is that guy that has you thinking there is something there he has some decent quality's kind of like Darkwa he was fan favorite here but we didn't want him and neither did anyone else, he was set free here and never got on an NFL roster again. |

Not playing ST’s has held him back so far with this staff. Look, I hear ya but it’s not like Lewis and Freeman are anything to get excited about. |

It'll be interesting to see how this pans out for him always thought he ran hard just had some ball security issues and wasn't as dependable as you would like catching the ball, He needs to be more consistent. |
