And McKinnon, mostly in the passing game. But between the two of them they should be huge in the playoffs. Luckily, we're operating from 13 personnel almost 40% of the time, so it should be easy to keep these guys fed in the gameplan. [Reply]

Yea, and it's not like he was facing a soft defense that was worried about stopping a future HOF QB passing attack or had an ultra elite run blocking OL. [Reply]
Why in the world wouldn't you just bring Mckinnon back and have Pacheco take more of the load in his second season?
You know Mck physically can't be a primary, and Pacheco in his second season should have full grasp of the offense and improve his blocking.
Add a late rounder to groom and get on with it.
I imagine that's the plan, but I doubt they want to overpay him. See: Precisely how we brought him back THIS season after letting him test the waters. [Reply]

Yeah, but nobody's going to break the bank for an oft-injured 31 year old running back.
And if you're Jerrick, you have to know that there's no big payday out there that's worth it, and that THIS is the best possible situation for him to extend his career and win championship(s). It's perfect for his skillset, and he's proven he can't hold up to being the bellcow.

What injury’s has he had since being here ? Nothing serious that I can think of and the way he blocks and catches let alone running the ball it’s a no brainer to bring him back [Reply]

Can't risk it, look at MEH you have to have more than one. [Reply]
Several big plays today in key moments. Bouncing that run led to 7 that made the difference. And brought the energy once again. Amazing how far he's come since week 1. [Reply]
