Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy has been known as one of the best running backs in the league, but this year he has looked far from that.
On the season McCoy has only had 257 yards and zero touchdowns. Against the New England Patriots on Monday night he really struggled to rush for only 13 yards on 12 attempts. After the game,p McCoy admitted he isn't playing well, but he knows he can still play at a high level. Via Pro Football Talk.
“S—. I still can play. I still can play. Defenses know I still can play. You see the way they approach me when I’m in the game.”
McCoy said he has no idea if the Bills will trade him, but he does enjoy being with the Bills and would like to stay with them. More than anything though he would like to start playing better so he can stop being so angry.
“This is my team, . . . I’m happy here,” he said. “But it doesn’t matter whether I was here or anywhere else, playing a season like this, you would be mad. I don’t think it’s a matter of where I’m at. It’s just what’s been taking place and how things are going offensively. . . .
“What do I got, 200 yards? In the [eighth game]? That’s never happened to me. Yeah, it’s different. It’s a different season. I’m 30 years old, playing since when I’ve been in high school. This stuff [has] never happened to me. It is tough.”
A lot of his struggles might be because opposing defenses can key on him since the quarterback play for the Bills is so bad. Whatever the case look for McCoy to really try and get on the right track in the next few weeks, either with the Bills or some other team.
