Oof, I remember that. He got steamrolled by Derwin James.
James is a beast, but I was disappointed Clyde couldn't power through him for that extra yard with a full head of steam. [Reply]

Pretty much
Our backs are really hard to watch run sometimes. [Reply]

But he was still a 1000 times better than Bell.
The Lesean McCoy situation was so weird. Cause he was actually good for us but kept fumbling despite never having fumbling issues in his career. Also Reid usually let's guys work out their issues but he just straight up benched McCoy. [Reply]

Can you define "never having fumbling issues in his career"? Because he had 22 of them before making his way to Kansas City. He's 4th among active/recently active, non-QB, in fumbles. [Reply]

He played 9 years before making it to KC though. That's not even 2.5 fumbles per season.
He always ran with the ball away from his body, but it never resulted in a noticeable fumbling issue. [Reply]

25 fumbles in 2500 carries and 500 catches is a really great number. [Reply]

In a 12 year career Shady has fumbled 25 times. That's just 2.08 times per season.
Let's find some context, dipstick.
Walter Payton: 13 year career, 86 fumbles.
Jim Brown: 9 year career, 57 fumbles.
Barry Sanders: 10 year career, 41 fumbles.
More facts:
Through his 12 year career, McCoy has had 7 seasons with two or fewer fumbles, and 4 seasons with just 1 or fewer fumbles.
Through McCoy's first 7 games as a Chief (he didn't really play after week 8), he rushed for 362 yards on 69 carries. Let me be clear: that's 5.25 yards/carry.
To be even more transparent, let's look at his average per game through the first 8 weeks of 2019:
Week 1: 81 yds/10 carries=8.1 yds/carry
Week 2: 23yds/11 carries=2.09yds/carry
week 3: 54yds/8 carries=6.75yds/carry
Week 4: 56yds/11 carries=5.09yds/carry
Week 5: DNP
Week 6: 44yds/8 carries=5.5yds/carry
Week 7: 64yds/12 carries=5.33yds/carry
Week 8: 40yds/9 carries=4.4yds/carry
So 6 out of 8 weeks behind a different OL every single game, with new teammates at every position, Shady averaged more than 5yds/carry.
In fact, if you subtract both Shady's best performance as well as his worst in those 8 weeks, Shady averaged a league-leading 5.37 yds/carry.
During this same period Damien Williams was averaging less than 2 yds/carry.
Like I said, damn, you're stupid.
You are moving the goalposts with your fumble stats you fucking imbecile. Who gives a shit about his career, you originally said AS A CHIEF and that was what I was responding to dumbfuck. AS A CHIEF his YPC was 4.6. You can cherry-pick all of the games you want to but AS A CHIEF (your words from original reply to me) he shit the bed at the most inopportune times with turnovers and had a 4.6 YPC. Yeah he had a few decent games, but so has almost every other starting RB that's ever played for KC.
You are seriously one of the most obtuse, mouth-breathing morons on this site...and that's really saying something. [Reply]
