Nzoner's Game Room>Losing Kareem Hunt killed us
493rd 11:20 AM 10-14-2019
This may seem obvious, but I believe Hunt’s loss created a more glaring void than anyone could’ve imagined. The simple reality is that our offense no longer has the ability to sustain drives because we can’t run the football. It’s easy to bitch at Reid for not running the ball, but the truth is that we can’t block well enough to run the damn ball, and the RBs we have now aren’t capable of creating things on their own. Hunt was and was at the top of the yards after first contact category. Now, no team in the league fears our run game and they’re teeing off on our shitty line as a result.

Getting Fisher back will help, but it won’t change things significantly enough to matter. Until we find another guy in the backfield that commands the oppositions respect, we’ll continue to struggle offensively. There will certainly be games that Mahomes is unstoppable in, but they likely won’t be in January. Damien Williams, McCoy, and the others aren’t nearly good enough.

The players need to be scared, too. They are coughing up the ball at an alarming rate.

His pass protection technique will have to be perfect considering his size. Thompson looks like he is less than 190lbs

Like the strip sack on Mahomes that led directly to a Houston TD?

Yeah, I'm scared of fumbles too.

Looks like he's right around 200 or more. Here is a good read on the guy.

We lost Hunt then we were without Hill, Fisher, Wylie, Watkins and Williams. And we tried to rebuild the D at the same time. It's all killed us.

Point is that nobody is afraid of anyone in our backfield. Teams had to pick their poison when we had Kareem. And the dude was awesome catching the football. Look at any of Reid’s teams historically and there was always a feature back that teams had to account for. We don’t have anything near that now.

Mahomes fumbled yesterday, is Andy going to bench him?

Play the the RB's who provide the most playmaking ability.

And its not like McCoy/Darwin Thompson/Darrel Williams are fumble-prone.

Offense needs more balance. Too much backyard football. But the defense's shortcomings are the biggest concern. Can't rush the passer or tackle. Bad combo.

Not disagreeing but it's like losing Hunt was the thread that started the unravelling.

It has nothing to do with his pass protection. He just doesn't trust him or he's too god damn stubborn to give up on Damian Williams. I saw one back go for a cut block on a blitzer and completely whiff. I'm sure Darwin can do better than that. He needs to get put in the game. I wanna see a guy running bitches over like what other teams do to us.
