CJ's rushing attempts

It was all true. He needs a lot of space. If you notice- when there's no hole, he doesn't make anything happen. He just falls down.

He's a speed back. No speed back should be the highest paid player in the league. He actually should be sharing carries.

 

I agree, he should be splitting carries but give the man his due credit. He's a tough back also. He ain't just speed. He does have great vision and is great at following his blocks and running in the open field. Sure he does have runs that go for no gain or where he loses yards but that happens to every back in the league. The difference is, they don't pose the threat of taking it to the house every time they touch the ball.

 

He does have good vision. I wont say great, because there are MANY times where he could cut out- use his blocker and be home free, yet he'll cut inside directly to a defender cutting himself short. And a lot of the time it's in the 2nd level, which is something most HS backs wont ever do.

But then again, he does see small holes well and usually gets through quick.


I'm only saying why he shouldn't be paid as much as he thinks. He's not as good as he thinks he is- but I doubt anyone can ever be as good as HE thinks he is.


He's a great home-run hitter.

but I'd like a basehitter to help him out and move the chains.
