I think Shady has been our best back, fumbles notwithstanding.
Shady and Thompson going forward is probably our best bet anyway given the state of our line play.

From what I see on A22, the way this line is playing right now just wasn’t meshing well for Darrel. He was giving us a little bit of production as a receiver in short areas, but nothing more than what the other guys can give us.
I feel like he’s the type of back who needs holes big enough to where he can really roll through them at top speed and then finish with some power. But those holes haven’t been available so he winds up more or less tip toeing, and doing it very slowly with little bend in his body to get skinny and create extra yards.
