Clevfan4life Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 He has a bit fresher legs. Let him be the workhorse for a few weeks and let carlos get a couple relief innings in per week. We're not running enough. We need to avg around 30 carries a week. The 1 should get 15-18 of those and the rest of the carrys split between the #2 and duke.

Dutch Oven Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Do you guys know why he's not being used all that much? Because the dude has no idea what he is doing regarding his blocking responsibilities. He's gotten a punt blocked because he literally let someone run right past him, and he nearly got Taylor killed because he couldn't figure out a badly-disguised blitz.

CLEVELANDwantsPLAYOFFS Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Good news, once Chubb gets it all down, he looks to be a stud RB for us, and another solid pick. Very explosive, breakaway speed, and some good feet to go with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyde still runs tough, but he's not bursting through the seams as hard as he has. Give him a week or so off on limited carry's.....that's the beauty of having the RB room that we do. The same guy doesn't have to be the bell cow every game. Chubb deserves a minimum 5-10 carry's a game based on his performance today. Those were not fluke runs. Give the kid the rock, lets run the Fukking ball byner and mack style...…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haley's tendencies so far are to go away from it too early when it doesn't click right away. 31 rushing attempts is right proper in my book. But to keep that up we need to involve Chubb more so Hyde doesn't wear down. It's actually a potentially amazing situation to have those two interchangeable as the workhorse to go along with Duke.

BrownsKidd Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Yes Chubb has some very serious pass protect issues and needs to learn that role of his position. But I still would have loved to have seen him on that 3rd down run that got reversed late in the game. Hyde is kind of dancing in the backfield a bit. Would like to see him hit the hole harder and run downhill quicker. How do you not utilize a guy that had two runs for TD's for avg of 35 yards?

No one that knows football has a problem with Hyde starting, he is playing well. Exciting to have Chubb as the fresh legs though ... 14.6 Yards per carry isn't bad.

Again I can't get passed being up 2 scores with a chance to start wearing out a front 7 and Haley opens with a 5 step drop in our own 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm confused...are we running enough or Nah? I see no reason for Chubb to be the starter over Hyde...yet... I'm not sure if this is the first game you've seen Chubb run in or not but spoiler alert....he doesn't get 30 yd TD's every time he carries.

And thank u for reminding me no RB ever has avg'd 35 ypc. I pretty clearly stated i still overall prefer hyde but noticing his burst is dropping off. He can still grind out tough yards, that ability stays around after the loss of acceleration. my point is give chubb the lionshare of the runs for a week or two till his legs drop a bit. Rinse, repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you pretty much covered it. Blocking assignments are generally where many rookie RBs struggle, and it's obvious with Chubb. We're not about to let our rookie QB get killed.

How about play action or a quick swing pass? Can he catch? Chubby doesn't have to block on EVERY play he's in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I read multiple times that he looked very good catching the ball in training camp, so I'm with you. Let him catch and run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo, maybe trying to pound the rock and throw on third down would have been the route to go.. with a rookie QB playing on the road in his first NFL start. Of course still try and establish a nice drive and get some more points, but why not try and establish the run up 14 in the 3rd quarter? It’s what the teams who have beaten us do. Maybe set up play action as the defense becomes desperate to make a stop... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
