Chiefs Don't blame MEH for his performance Monday night - Page 5

dlphg9 · 10-12-2022, 02:18 PM

I'm no fan of MEH and I never have been, so its hard for me to say this, but his lack of production in the run game on Monday night is on the OL. They did an atrocious job of blocking for him. My initial reaction from the game was that he just had one of his typical shitty games that we have grown accustom to seeing from him, but a look into the stats show that the offensive line failed him.

Clyde had 9 carries for a total of 15 yds, but the most telling stat is his yards before contact (YBC). In his career he has averaged 2.3 YBC/ATT, but Monday night he only had 6 yards before contact on 9 rushes. That comes out to 0.3 YBC/ATT and that means he was getting his pretty much at the line of scrimmage every single play. That is the 2nd lowest YBC/ATT for his entire career and the only game that was less? The Colts game a couple weeks back. In that game he had -6 YBC on 7 rushes. That comes out to -0.9 YBC/ATT.

So lets try to stop blaming him so much for his crappy stats on Monday, because the OL didn't help him even a little.

Shoulda chose Jonathan Taylor.

No he wasn't. Anyone that actually believes this is just as dumb as jd1020.

You are confusing potential with results.

Pacheco without a doubt has more potential than any RB on the team. CEH doesnt have his speed and McKinnon doesnt have his size.

Here's the problem though, the violence everyone praises him for is getting in the way of that potential. There's a time and a place for violence and there's a time and a place for not pounding the ball right into your guards ass for a 1 yard gain.

The Chiefs called up Edwards-Helaire with Clark Hunt, Andy Reid, Brett Veach, Eric Bieniemy, and Deland McCullough to congratulate him on joining Kansas City. In the call, they let him, and the rest of Chiefs Kingdom in on a little piece of information. Both Reid and Veach revealed that Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes had hand-picked Edwards-Helaire as the player that he wanted for the Chiefs. And so, they made it happen.

“Hey, listen we’re fired up for you, man,” Andy Reid began. “We asked Pat Mahomes, ‘Who do you want?’ And he picked you. How great is that?”

dipshit9, with the hot carl of a hot take.

Lmao, MEH is the king of running into his lineman's back. He does it all the time. Pacheco passes the eye test more than any RB on the team and anytime he's been given the chance to produce he has.

Ah the eye test. Not a biased test at all.

I don't care what some feel good bullshit Andy told him. Mahomes was not the person that decided who was getting drafted.

Like the word.

'Meh'

Per Websters:

"Used to express indifference or mild disappointment; not impressive"

No better word has ever existed to describe Clyde. He's not great; not ghastly. He's unimpressive and mildly disappointing.

He is meh.

Why would they report that if it wasn't true?

The NFL is completely on the up and up and wouldn't let people believe something that isn't true just because it makes a great story...would they?

McKinnon is average less ypc than CEH less TDs too

At the end of the day, whos better than who overall doesn't mean shit. All that matters is who is doing better that day. Just ride the hot hand.

But it seems like Reid and EB are trying to force CEH into being the hot hand so even in games he's not doing well in, they keep putting him out in high leverage situations.

Y'all need to give Clyde a break. He's a league leader. Oh, I should tell what stat? Running into offensive line men's rears.
