Jaren is gonna have his struggles adjusting to the NFL obviously but I still hope he can be good but what’s important to me is that due to the lack of running game we need backs out there that can be always available for a screen pass or dump off and actually beat a defender or two, something Mattison has been incapable of as of late. Couple this with his butter fingers and as much as i’ve liked Mattison over the years, he’s gonna hurt Jaren’s play. Thus, Ty needs to be in more to provide this easy play option and it’s something i’m bewildered we haven’t seen more of this season. Anyways, looking forward to watching the next Brady cook this weekend
It bothers me that while this team has been good at recognizing issues and fixing them they still run Drive Staller Mattison out there time and time again. Let’s stop making our D option our A opinion.
There’s only like 10 RBs in the league that have rushed as often as Mattison and have a higher success rate.
The one thing he’s not is a drive killer. He’s just not explosive. And he’s had a hands issue this year, but that seems to be a Vikings problem more than an individual player problem.
