The guy had a career YPC of 3.2 and was cut by like half the league before he was forced into retirement.
Fair enough.
It remains to be seen, however, if 1st-rounder (32nd) Clod can recreate the kind of highlights and/or career stats that 3rd-rounder (96th) Knile Davis did.
The McKinnon reception where he fights for the first down was a play I don't think Clyde makes either. Those are the type of plays we haven't seen since Hunt. [Reply]

That was a very nice play and turn his body to stay in. [Reply]

Until then, Clod. Or MEH.
Wtf are you even talking about. Clyde already surpassed Knile's career in his rookie season. Knile Davis was fucking terrible. CEH is about average for a RB, which is kind of disappointing given he was a 1st round pick but that doesn't make him useless. If the Chiefs actually utilized him in the passing game like they intended when they drafted him I doubt people are bitching, but who knows since people legitimately seem to think Knile Davis was better.

If CEH put up these numbers, it would have been considered an awful game.
Williams made some nice plays, and it’s possible that he’s better than CEH, but the “cut him now” talk is a little premature.
Pretty much. Clyde gets a bunch of unfair hate because of where he was selected.
Darrel Williams is a free agent after this year and barring some crazy career altering explosion, he'll be fortunate to land another job in the NFL and we have people saying he's our new RB1 and cut CEH. Its insane.
About the only thing he did yesterday that I question if CEH would do right now, not that he isn't capable or hasn't shown it before, is the patience to cut that run back for the TD. He does have a pretty maddening trend of going where the hole is designed to be and not where it is right now and if the hole isn't where it should be he just rides the ass of his lineman like its 4th and 1 and he's just trying to force a few inches for a first.

What a tragedy. CEH has more talent but cant hit a hole, follow a block or stay up right. DW hits the hole and makes the decision with authority. But just lacks true NFL starter talent. [Reply]

This is BS. I have seen Clyde make that exact type of play THIS YEAR. I don't remember which game but I know he did it. I think some of you all are seeing what you want to see. [Reply]
