I'll be rooting for Kareem, he's a hell of a talent and fun to watch. There's no doubt he would be a great asset on this team. But that ship has sailed and I don't see the point in arguing about the matter any more.
His situation on the Browns is interesting. The guy is way too talented to not be on the field as a primary back. His career should not go to waste sitting behind Chubb for 5 carries a game. [Reply]

LOL. With all the injuries this team has had to deal with? Come on with that. He likely would have been carrying the water for us in more than a couple of games this season.
He's a bull dyke runner that can catch the ball. Name a team he WOULDN'T help. [Reply]

He's being "smart" by asking how Hunt would have helped thus far, b/c he's still not cleared to play, so he could not have helped....That "smart guy" argument only works for a few more weeks, then he would be the shot in the arm that the run game needs, and would be coming at a crucial time.

I thought Kareem got railroaded, but in the big picture he sacrificed himself to save Tyreek for us. It was a noble shoving match that he engaged in. [Reply]

Please. Kareem is a unicorn.
He never fumbled in college and has one fumble in his NFL career... on his first carry.
You can't expect that from everyone, because nobody else is like that. It's one of the things that makes him special.
If you thought "We can just replace Kareem with another guy who can lead the NFL in rushing and basically never fumble" you're a damn fool.
RB's fumble. You hope they fumble 4 times or less during the season.
For the record, McCoy has been under 4 every season of his career.
I still think he's THE BEST RUNNING BACK IN FOOTBALL, so obviously we'd be better with him than 31 year old McCoy and 2 yards per carry Williams. [Reply]

Sometimes there is no point to arguing, you just do it because you're pissed. [Reply]

He doesn't need me to speak for him, but he was not one of those idiots who thought that. Some of them even doubled down on stupid and are still saying it. :-) [Reply]
