We didn't know what we had in Larry Johnson until Priest went down
We didn't know what we had in Jamaal Charles until Larry went down
we didn't know what we had in Kareem Hunt until ware went down

Now it's Darwin thompson that will become the next great Chiefs RB.

Patriots have no film on him. turn him loose.

What's C.J Spiller up to nowadays?

Add me on to the Darwin Thompson bandwagon. This kid has an interesting style of running. He has the quickness of an undersized back but finishes really strong. I think this kid has really good vision as well. I've been wondering about him. But he is a sixth round rookie. Coming from Utah State to starter for Andy Reid is a massive jump. But hey, Kareem never had a problem. This kid should've gotten more action by now. Especially since Shady fumble against GB and Williams fumble against TEN cost us two games.

I don't know how special this kid is yet, but he's a little spark plug. He runs with enthusiasm and intent.

He runs like every carry is his last. I dig it. Lets hope he catches lightning in a bottle.

As hard as he runs I'm not sure he's gonna last long.

Use the little fucker up. :-)

Dudes built like a rock.

He and Tyreek have identical bodies for sure with Tyreek being quicker and faster of course but DT ain't no slouch either.

With an injury history. Shady has it too. Good reason to split carries between the two.

so was MJD

he lasted about six years before brokedick status

we need to use this kid up fast because it's go time
[Reply]

To be fair, how many current running backs last that long besides a Frank Gore?
[Reply]

I’m not crowning him based on last nights limited action, nor am I willing to poo-poo his potential

But the bottom line is he is our youngest, freshest, most dynamic back right now... and he deserves a much closer, in depth look to suss out his ceiling

Andy has been load managing Shady for the stretch run. Expect to see more of him this week unless the O line shits the bed again. He looks fresh. He and Darwin could be a good 1-2 punch. Feels like the screen game has been missing, and Darwin could excel there. I like our line better in space.

The biggest advantage that Darwin has, IMO, is his smaller size. He literally doesn't need much of a hole to slip through. Or crash through, whatever. And since our OL is not run blocking that well, Darwin can make use of holes that our other backs just might not be able to get a shoulder into.

Yes. The answer is yes.
