We don't need a single 50 yard run to make the run game successful. We need someone who can consistently get enough yards to get a first down and keep drives going. That guy is Clyde. Darrel is complete ass at short yardage situations. Gore isn't getting a chance. McKinnon is laughable. Burton should get the ball on every 3rd and 4th down and less than 2. [Reply]
This team has been much better since they adopted a RRBC approach. I know that sounds crazy but this team is much better platooning than trying to feed CEH the ball.
If he can come back and get 8-10 touches, I'm fine with that. But I want to see Gore, Williams, and even McKinnon in the right situations. [Reply]

Our backs are so average across the board it's better if they're running fresh. [Reply]

When none of your RBs are particularly good, it makes as much sense as anything to just keep rolling out fresh ones.
I think they do have slightly different skill sets and so some situational rotations make sense. But weirdly, the only guy I think I'd give 70% percent of the reps to is Jerrick McKinnon. And if the Chiefs don't trust him, that's understandable. So go ahead and roll the RBBC. [Reply]
I'll take a formation of Gore and McKinnon flanking Mahomes in shotgun on 3rd and 4 or longer. Just have one of them chip TJ Watt fergawdssake. [Reply]
