There isn't a running back in the NFL that could do any better than LJ is right now.

Agreed.
LJ isn't a bad back right now. He's just behind the wrong offensive line. Charles is a better fit for a bad offensive line. That doesn't make LJ bad. You just got to get LJ to the second level. That's where he's dangerous. More often than not, he's getting caught in the backfield before he can even turn the burners on.
