Today KC will find it's starting HB...

And his name is Frank Moreau.

With all respect to Cloud, Moreau is/will be the real deal. The only question is how fast will he progress?

All early indications are that he will quickly be a weapon.

What usually keeps rookie RBs from seeing much playing time (Cloud was a good example his first year) is the learning curve on pass-blocking technique, and blitz pick-up schemes. Moreau comes from a pass first university and reportedly came out of camp well advanced in these areas.

He is the only RB on the squad that is a true inside/outside runner. His quickness, burst, and ability to turn the corner got me excited during the preseason and it broke my heart last week to see Bennett try and take a pitch wide. There is zero comparison.

TRich is quick enough to lead Moreau through some tremendous holes and potentially out perform Alstott/Dunn.

I have no idea how much playing time our coaching staff will give Moreau today, but watch him closely. He is our future at HB, and along with Gonzo and Morris will be fixtures in KC for years to come.
