The issue with having a burner is usually he's searching out HR's. With that being the case, you have alot of "strikeouts".
Give me a RB who consistently churns out runs. 4-5 yards a time, then eventually hits a crease and goes for 20. I don't care about getting big plays in the run game as much with having Mahomes at QB. Those will come in the pass game.
I need basically what McKinnon did in the AFC champ game first half. Take what's blocked up.

Totally disagree, you need a RB that can break long plays it keeps defenses honest. Also the problem so far in CEH's career is that he can barely get 3-4 yds a carry with hardly any that go for over 20. He just lacks being explosive\quick.
Hell last year behind this bad ass line his longest run was 17 yds. Shit Mahomes did that every game.
