Shady as a Chief, using stats from the games he actually played was the most efficient RB on the roster last season. Look it up.
But Andy had McCoy back in 2009-2012, where Lesean ran for nearly 4,000 yds, about a 4.5yds/carry avg., 30 TDs, another 200 or so receptions, and another 8 receiving TDs.

The guy that played a pretty important role at an important time that helped us, ultimately, reach the Super Bowl? I didn't love the guy, but he was certainly successful when we needed him. 465 yards for the good guys while averaging 4.6 per carry were absolutely valuable. His fumbles, though, ended his time in KC. [Reply]

All these guys became at least functional RBs in Andy's system since his arrival in 2013. Most of those guys were nothing better than average, but Andy managed to get 1,000 yd seasons from just about all of them, and two became NFL rushing champs.
And those are just the RBs he had in KC. Can you think of any good-great PHI RBs from Andy's tenure?
Yeah, I think just about the last thing we need to worry about is whether Andy will be able to figure out how to get a good performance out of Le'Veon Bell, former rushing champion. [Reply]

How come you didn't include cj spiller in your list of rbs? He did like 15 stints with the Chiefs, must have really been wanted by the staff. [Reply]

Can't be serious. Leveon has a hell of a lot less mileage, he's young, and unlike mccoy the Chiefs picked leveon up because they've wanted him for a long time. As in... They seemed ready to give him a huge contract even with all of our needs. They didn't sign him simply because he was cheap and available.
When Andy Reid wants an offense guy this badly, you know he has something big in mind for the kid. [Reply]

They've been after him since at least last year. [Reply]
