CEH runs like he's trying to make the first man miss.....he begins shifting left/right and stop starting to give him a clear advantage on the first tackler.
Listening to the great running backs when they get interviewed, one thing they always say is they NEVER even counted the first tackler. Didn't focus on them and instead had eyes for the second man in and were thinking of how they were going to beat THAT guy.
That's the advantage a great runner believes they have, that with speed and the chance to choose where they are going they have a natural advantage against the first man in to tackle to the point that guy shouldn't be able to bring them down.
CEH looks like he thinks he's got no advantage and needs to make moves to get the first guy unbalanced.
Reckon that's a fixable thing through coaching. He's got to explode initially and then use a pause to change direction to beat the next line of defenses.
He's built like a tank, should run more like Maurice Drew and take what's there as well as advantage of extra yards and open space when he catches the defenders in the wrong fit.
