You could say the same about pretty much every RB outside of the truly all time greats.
Remember when the Chiefs were playing the Titans in the playoffs with one of the worst run defenses in the game and Derrick Henry was suppose to run for 200 yards? He got 60 and like 3.5 YPC. How you block is more important to how you run. That's why its the most replaceable position on the field and why it was such bad value to pick a RB in the 1st, regardless of the result.
