So why did we look like we had a more serious running game with Spencer Ware?

Sure, but other than the Texans game, has it really felt like he was an important part of the win? Not really.

But, I blame the play calling more than any individual player today. Reid and EB didn't put the offense in enough winning positions today. It's the second week in a row that play calling on offense was an issue.

The one thing I don’t like about CEH is he doesn’t punish players. Jacobs dragged 2 of our LB’s for extra yards with frequency. Kareem did that all the time.

CEH just doesn’t do that that often.

He was great against the Texans and great against the Ravens. Hell he done some good things against the Pats too. None of the top RB picks from the last draft have lit the world on fire thus far. Infact Robinson from the Jags, who was undrafted, has the most yards carrying the ball if i remember correctly. Ceh will get better with experiance...just have to be patient and understand that he's way more than just a runner.

OL can't block worth a damn. Thats the real issuse. We haven't taken the interior seriously. Just throw out some jags and let Mahomes dodge lineman.

Offs. Niang. LDT.

Yeah, Andy and Veach really should've looked into their crystal ball and seen both of those guys opting out. Sheesh.

Sure....But he was billed as OROY candidate, and that he would help our offense go to some type of transcendental level, but thus far it hasn't really been that at all.

Of course, we're only 5 games into his rookie season, and there's a lot left to play, so too early to really judge the full impact. Early returns have been OK, not great

The Raiders defense against the run was ranked 32nd coming into today.

He’s not a bust or anything. Just not as dynamic as I thought he would be.

definitely not, and lots of ball to play....he's been good most of the time to very good at times.

Also can't discount the lack of pre-season either. Reid's offense is complex, and I'm sure they are still installing things for him....he's by far the least of our worries

Anyone can drag the KC LB's. They have guys starting that won't make most teams rosters unless for special teams.

CEH needs max OL.

Exactly, but he can play in this league and be a good player.

Yep. And our OL got punked all day by their D.

CEH is already on pace to have more yards after contact and more yards after contact per attempt than Kareem did in 2017 OR 2018.

Again, this is 100% selective, nostalgic memory.

People forget that Kareem's rookie year, he had a string of 7 or 8 games where he barely cracked 50 yards per game, let alone 100.

He literally won the rushing title by rushing for 150 or more in like 4 games.
