Buffalo Bills RB LeSean McCoy: "There's no back that can touch me"

Buffalo Bills’ RB LeSean McCoy appeared on ESPN’s SportsCenter and had a lot to say about a wide range of topics.

“I still feel healthy, there’s no back that can touch me.” Those were the words that Buffalo Bills‘ running back LeSean McCoy spoke on Friday while on SportsCenter.

I agree.

While on SportsCenter, McCoy sat down with Cari Champion of ESPN and gave his opinions on a lot of topics, including his list of top-5 running backs, Tyrod Taylor, Sean McDermott and Rex Ryan.

Let’s go down the list.

Shady’s Top-5 NFL RB’s

LeSean McCoy broke it down for everybody on Friday. After stating that he’s the best back in the league with confidence, he went on to name the next four best backs in the league.

“I like Le’Veon [Bell],” he said. With Bell at No. 2, he went with “kid from Arizona” for No. 3 — that of course being David Johnson. With No. 4, he really liked what DeMarco Murray did this season. That left Ezekiel Elliot at No. 5, or as McCoy put it — “I feel five or six.”

McCoy went on to explain his Elliot selection at No. 5:

Let’s see what McCoy had to say about Tyrod Taylor.

Tyrod Taylor

LeSean McCoy was asked “Do you think you need a quarterback — a new quarterback?”

Shady replied:

The Buffalo Bills have a big decision to make with Tyrod Taylor, but it seems like Taylor prefers to  stay here. Unless the team let’s him walk, he’ll be here next season.

Personally, I think the Bills would be best off keeping him in town.

Rex Ryan

Of course, McCoy was asked about Rex Ryan and his thoughts on whether it was fair to see him go this season. Here’s what Shady said:

LeSean McCoy was one of the players that spoke out after Rex was fired, saying that the team lacked discipline at times, but ultimately it comes down to the players not being held accountable.

Sean McDermott

After talking about Rex Ryan, McCoy had to give a shoutout to his new head coach.

“In Buffalo, we get a great coach in Sean McDermott, I was with him in Philadelphia and he has the right tools to get the job done.”

Cari Champion quickly asked him, “So what do you need to make a deep run into the playoffs?”

McCoy replied:

There’s that word ‘discipline’ again. Good news is Sean McDermott should fix that problem in Buffalo.

LeSean McCoy had a gifted season and could’ve had more to show if a couple of injuries hadn’t happened.

Either way, his 1,267 yards, 13 touchdowns and 5.4 yards per carry speak for themselves. Not to mention he did it all with just 234 attempts — opposed to the 300+ he would get in a full season with Philly.

I can’t wait to see what he does for the Buffalo Bills in 2017, I’m sure it will be quite special.
