Darrel made the most of his opportunity against that d-line.
The other 8 carries went for 11 yards due to the nature of the play.
Washington is the 19th ranked run defense in the league giving up 113.5 rush yards per game.
Even when cherry picking his runs, 3.92 YPC is sub par. [Reply]

It was his first start numbskull. CEH averaged 1.9 YPC last week so give it a rest. Darrel scores rushing touchdowns like crazy this year. CEH can't buy one. [Reply]

We literally had 5 3rd and 5's in the last drive.
... dat draft pic doh.
It looms heavily every time he runs straight up the ass of one of our OL. Years go by and I just can't look beyond it. My MEH viewing is just forever tainted. It's really not even his fault as he didn't pick himself in the 1st.
I'm sure it's part of why I can find myself cheering for DW or why I enjoyed The Sausage so much. [Reply]

You are epically stupid.
and you're a goat-humping douchebag
No way does CEH make that cutback on the goalline for a touchdown. CEH would have rammed him head up the nearest Offensive lineman's ass and then fell down. [Reply]
People that are shitting on DW right now are correct in that no, he is not elite but if you actually watched the game and this was your main take away...
If anything that's more evidence that CEH is crap. DW passes the eye test and looks like he has vision even if he's not doing something special.
CEH looks worse.
I'm not looking at it through draft status, DW actually looks like an NFL running back. Clyde looks undersized, slow, and blind.
Williams looks better even if he isn't doing anything special.
For this offense, Darrell is fine. Maybe even better than fine. I really have no issues with Clyde, though, except for the fact that he cost us a first round draft pick. [Reply]

Williams had a couple decent cuts to get a few extra yards and scored a couple short yardage TDs, but he rushed for damn near 2 yards less than CEHs season average and we are sitting here acting like we just found a new RB1. That's pretty hilarious.
Why in the fuck would anyone WANT to hate CEH? Everyone was ecstatic about the draft pick and had such high hopes for him. He never talks or does anything publicly to generate any kind of bad press. Nobody has anything invested in Darrell Williams either, he's been around for a long time. [Reply]
