The eye test doesn't work for everything when evaluating football players, you know.

I disagree but CEH is underwhelming enough that it opens up discussions like this because he is not obviously much better than guys that could be added like Gore.

Keep CEH as the lead back but if Breece Hall fell into the 2nd round I would pull the trigger.

I would love to see this type of run from CEH but so far in his NFL career he hasn't shown he can break one off.

The whole position group is just meh.

Feast? Don't think so.

Just like Pat can't feast on the deep throws.

You're wanting something this offense isn't designed for.

"I agree SNR. At the end of the day, it's all about the scoreboard!"

To reference another discussion...
The chiefs really don't need more carries, what they need is a bonafide threat when they do run it. It is frustrating watching an elite offense that is unable to punish defenses for doubling the deep routes and the TE.

Continued improvement from the oline will be great for the entire squad too.

I don't think you guys are being patient enough with CEH and he can have monster games and they are coming.


Last year he was beasting out before his injury and although he hadn't had a great start to the season he isn't the only one who struggled on offense.


Not giving him a chance or opportunity is grave mistake. I believe in CEH as much as he will get more playing time and make big plays running and catching the ball. Don't underestimate CEH.


He can carry five tacklers on his back for 4 to 5 yards and a first down.

The CEH disrespect is ridiculous.

Yeah this.


People will have egg yoke on their face. We will be winning championships with CEH starting running back.

Red Dawg 12-14-2021 04:19 AM

Andy doesn't stick with the run.

Talent for your profession usually shows up way before the point he's at in his career. I'm going to respectfully disagree.

I could understand this if he wasn't getting opportunities. But he is the starting RB with plenty of carries and hasn't really shown much.

I mean one of these things is not like the other minus 1 freaking run.

Gores on the season is 5.0 just saying

Only because of a single run from the game on Sunday. I guess they hadn't updated stats yet when I looked.

Nor should he.
