Sounds like CEH forty time : ) So he’s not a jag. Slightly better. Probably a reach in the 1st round I suppose. But water under the bridge. Enjoy the win today [Reply]

31 year old Mark Ingram is #5 in rushing currently.
The issue I have with all of our running backs is because no team respects our running game because we don't have that guy that can break one off. That is why teams are playing 2 high on us. Yeah CEH can get 5 yds but defenses don't give a shit that is win for them. He has a career long of 31 yds..that is pathetic for a starting RB
Isn't that the whole point of teams playing 2 high safeties against us? yes I think it is. Keep everything front and they will basically concede the short stuff because they want us to attempt 12-15 play drives and don't think we can do that without getting a penalty or a turnover. Defenses have zero fear of our current RB's breaking a long gain either since none of them have ever done it. [Reply]

Hey, if that's your strategy, enjoy the loss. [Reply]
Kareem Hunt averaged 4.6 YPC in 2018. CEH is averaging 4.7.
Clyde already has more 100 yard games on the ground than Hunt had in 2018.
In no way am I saying that CEH is as good as Hunt. I’m simply pointing to the fact that the production is pretty similar on the ground. The point is, with Pat at QB, you aren’t going to get the stats that people expect from a 1st round RB.
Hunt averaged about 75 YPG on the ground that year. That’s pretty much been what we’ve gotten from CEH outside of the first 2 weeks when there was clearly an adjustment period with 5 new starters up front. [Reply]

Every single team feared Kareem getting the ball and accounted for him at all times. You think they even care if CEH got the ball. Their production isn't alike at all. CEHs best games this year rushing and receiving is basically what Hunt AVERAGED.
In CEHs best games he had 109 total yards and 114 total yards. Kareem AVERAGED 109.3 total yards per game. And that doesn't even take into account his touchdowns. And I didn't even include the other 4 games Clyde has played, just his very best 2.
So no, CEHs production isn't anywhere near Kareem's. [Reply]

I was very clear that I’m talking specifically about their production on the ground.
If the complaint on CEH was that he isn’t getting used enough in the passing game, then I’d be in full agreement.
But it’s not. We’re talking about how you fucking morons will bitch about 5 YPC. [Reply]

Yep. Jonathan Taylor would have made everyone forget Kareem Hunt. CEH does the opposite. He's nothing special, and certainly not worthy of a #1 pick, but he can contribute if the Chiefs use him correctly. [Reply]
We took him because he was the most polished receiver of the backs in that draft and yet we absolutely do not use that facet of his skillset at all.
I fully expected that he would put up monster numbers as teams sat back in coverage, rushing 4 and Clyde would be all alone with room to run in the flats but we just flat don't use him in that way.
