And CEH was averaging over 8 before he had a few clock killing runs at the end…

Besides, he's such a nice dude. You can't really hate Clyde.

This.

Even if you think “hey, we shouldn’t have drafted a RB in the 1st,” he’s a legitimately good guy and he’s producing as he should. No idea why anyone would actively dislike him.

I disagree.

You don't draft a 5'8", 207lbs power back in the 1st round. If CEH doesn't make people miss, then he isn't worth drafting in the 1st round. You don't draft a RB in the 1st round nowadays unless they are a game changer.

CEH is playing better, running harder now. That's good, but he isn't dominating anything. He isn't really even making anyone miss. He has started breaking arm tackles, though.

3rd straight week of good running.

So he’s not making anyone miss but he’s breaking arm tackles? You’re a moron.

Exactly. He made plenty of guys miss today. Another dumb take from JakeF.

Can't complain today, the line opened holes and he exploited them... and boy did they open some holes, you could literally drive a truck through many of them

His best game of the season by far. Two good games in a row. Hopefully the start of a trend.

They are completely different things.

Breaking an arm tackle usually leads to finishing a run with a couple more yards. Making people miss leads to long runs.

Maybe you should focus on football instead of insulting people.

Another rude post by Staylor

The only thing I disliked from him today was he is almost too patient. Sometimes I want him to just hit the hole and fly.

This place has legitimately gone full reeruned the last few weeks.

That's not a good reason. You give William's that canyon towards the end zone and he scores. Clyde weak dick gets knocked down. Williams is better or as good. Clyde is not 1st rounder worthy. No back is.

Offensive line is turning into a great run blocking unit.

We really need to run the ball regularly to help our tackles.

Wondering how much of it was Clyde the first couple weeks, and how much was the line just not quite ready for primetime. He looked like a completely different back today. Hit holes fast, broke tackles, didn't go down easy. Getting in the passing game, too. He's a pretty good complement to what the offense does, and it was very clear today he's the most talented back on the roster and it's not close

jd1020 10-03-2021 02:58 PM

Only complaint I have for Clyde is on that 2nd and short run late in the game where he made like 2 jump cuts to his left and started dancing instead of just powering it through for the easy first down. Hes not the only one that does that shit though. Kelce does that shit all the time where he'll catch a ball near the first down marker and try to evade a tackle by running backwards and not get the first down. Hill does it too.

Just get the first down.
