I'm gonna be super annoyed if he keeps poaching carries from Ajayi. You really have to drop this narrative. What's your irrational hang up with Blount? He's been more than adequate and has wayyyy more than exceeded your expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO He's been under performing all year, He gets 2-3 good runs a game other then that hes stopped behind the line or just looks sluggish and doesnt attempt to power through tackles and picks up 1-2 yards.

RBreezy Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Packerraymond's avy is throwing me off lol And I'm cool with Blount. If he has space to use/a hole to run through he's an absolute terror coming downhill (especially in the cold). I do agree that Ajayi needs the ball more, he's a lot more explosive and can make more out of nothing. I'm getting sick of the Blount runs on 1st down though. Everyone and their mother knows its a run in that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to say that Ajayi should be getting more carries, that's fine. But he's been getting the majority of the carries since like week 13 or so. To say Blount is "underperforming" or "not good" is silly. What exactly has he underperformed or has been not good at this year? Obviously, being reasonably comparative to what he is. If you had a reasonable projection for the guy going in, he's been very good for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ_Eaglesfan Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Blount is really good when he has a hole to run through. Ajayi can make something happen even when the blocking isn't perfect. That is why Ajayi is much better than Blount, but if he can get in to space he is so hard to bring down and can punish defenders especially late in the game. Blount should get carries in the second half, but Ajayi should get at least 15 touches and Clement should be in on third down imo. We really need a speed back, after losing Sproles that is the one dimension our offense completely lacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General purpose back... not so much. That is all Mastercheddaar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worry about the offense line though. Not worried about the weather even though some people keep throwing that out there like it's going to be an issue.
