NFL 2018: 20 Running backs with best chance at 2,000 yards rushing
By Dan Parzych
10. LeSean McCoy
In an offense that didn’t have the best of weapons to work with during the team’s surprise playoff run during the 2017 season, at least the Buffalo Bills had one of the league’s top running backs in LeSean McCoy to work with. A running back like McCoy can only do so much on his own without the proper supporting cast, but the good news for the Bills star is he’s always going to be a workhorse for his team, meaning the carries will always be there.
As mentioned before, Buffalo shocked the football world last season by earning one of the Wild Card spots in the AFC, although the defense was the main factor behind the reason as to why. One can only imagine how far this team could have gone in the playoffs if the Bills’ offense had been a little more consistent, but most importantly, at least this team finally has high expectations heading into a new season for the first time in what seems like forever.
Nobody should be concerned over McCoy getting up their in age since the veteran doesn’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon if his production from the last few seasons is any indication of what to expect for 2018. Plus, when seeing how McCoy’s former team in the Eagles are coming off their first Super Bowl win in franchise history, the running back may be more motivated than ever to go after that ring.
