I hyped him up at the beginning of the year a lot and said that he would be 1000 yard running back this year and take a huge leap. I’m still expecting him to take a big leap after the bye week especially with a really easy schedule except for the Eagles of course. But it seems like we aren’t utilizing him enough considering we win every game where he gets more than 10 snaps, in both the Broncos game and the lions game he only had eight snaps every other game he had 10+ so I don’t know why we aren’t continuing that trend.
He needs to be used more particularly with teams playing off.
Having said that, I think he’s a solid NFL starter/rotational guy but not special.
He’s a power back who runs hard with good speed but he’s not a break it big type of guy because I’ve never seen him with an ability to juke someone or make someone miss. That’s just not his game.
I think he’d be much, much nicer if the Chiefs could round him out with another quality RB of IP’s level but was the lighting to IP’s thunder style of running… Basically like a younger, more explosive McKinnon.
