There is a rumor going around that Marshawn Lynch was arrested in Los Angeles last night and is current there in jail. I heard this on NFL Sirius radio this morning from Alex Marvez. I don't have a link, but still thought I would share this. Take it for what it is worth at this time.
PFT is reporting it also: http://www.profootballtalk.com/2009/02/15/was-marshawn-lynch-arrested-in-la/#comments Exact same name, different birthday. Lynch isn't the brightest though. He may have just given them the wrong day.
Confirmed: Lynch Arrest On Gun Charge http://www.profootballtalk.com/2009...arged-with-possession-of-a-concealed-firearm/ Na na na na. Na na na na. Hey Hey Hey...
Two arrests = 4 to 8 game suspension. (In my opinion) Honestly though, I don't think Fred Jackson is a dropoff at all for them. He may even be better.
Lynch gets the hype, but Jackson was playing well for them, especially later in the year indeed. Still, its nice to see other teams toss draft picks out the window.
Yep, I gotta agree. That being said, it is NEVER good to lose your starting RB to suspension for any length of time. We as Dolphin fans know that fact very very well......
Jackson definitely has some skills that are superior to Lynch. His receiving skills are obviously much better IMO. But yea, the Bills are in very rough shape. Jason Peters...ouch. I love it.
Fred Jackson is probably a better overall player, but since the Bills are very thin in offense missing Lynch would be a bed thing.
Missing Lynch is huge for the Bills. Jackson maybe good, but Lynch is definately better. The bills now lose their power game for however long he is gone for. He was a tough guy to take down in the red zone.
I think Lynch caught 40 something balls. He's decent. Lynch is by far the best bills RB. He has a very physical and violent running style (similar to Marion Barber). He just needs a better o-line.
