The end.

More important question would be what would Priest do behind Charles’ line? He didn’t do much in Balt because they’re line was merely good.
Look at it through that lens.

JC wasn't that kind of runner and while that line was all-world, I'm not sure it makes that much difference. JC was a crease runner, bigger holes weren't going to make him a better back.

The **** they weren’t. Holmes wasn’t getting touched until he hit a safety or CB on a lot of plays. You give that much better angles to JC and he would have been untouchable. Not to mention his ability to change direction was vastly superior to Holmes and even if they did get an angle on him, he would have been more likely to lay a nasty move on them than holmes.
People forget how goddamned good prime Charles was.
