NateDawg Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 As good as Ward and Baker have shown to be (and will continue to be), Chubb was kind of "my guy" when we took him. If he stays healthy long-term, he is going to be a legend in the Land. He's not really lacking in any area. Best in the league after contact last year, which is crazy. There were so many reasons to fire Hue, but chief among them was the three carries per game crap that kept going on no matter how effective Chubb was. If we can get a sustained dynasty going, there are going to be several names on this team off the top of my head that are likely to go down in Browns history as legends, jersey retirements, etc. This is a new concept. Baker, Chubb, Beckham, Garrett, Ward ... perennial pro bowl talents. I'm getting ahead of myself, but we have some no doubt cornerstone pieces on this team. It's crazy how overlooked seems to be looking ahead, though it makes sense with the guys that seem to attract the attention. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruceb Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Chubb coexisted quite well with Gurley and then Michel at Georgia. Smart choice for an RB in the NFL. The bigger issue is whether the dufus Hunt is as wise, imho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His running style wont lend itself to a log career, I hope we use him wisely though and let him be explosive rather than just a power runner. The first time I was impressed with him was a pre season game, his numbers weren't great, but he made it past the los, and a lb thumped him with a free shot, chubb brushed it off and fell forward. He is definitely special, I hope we do right by him, get good olinemen and design some good runs for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the weapons we have in the passing game and the depth in the backfield, I think they will have a pretty good game plan. Even before Kareem Hunt is available I would imagine. I’m really curious to see what the split up will be the second half of the season, if Kareem Hunt starts to get involved. That dude is way too talented to be a 3rd down RB. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Hunt is exactly what we’re all hoping Chubb will be when given a full season, you can’t expect to just give him 5-8 carries a game if he returns to form.

Maybe 1600 total yards. 2011 saints had 5300 yards passing and 2000 yards rushing. This was 8 years of offensive rule changes ago. I think we’ll have 7000 yards of total offense.
