Lat Murray is simply depth. No meaningful Carries without injuries

Because Melvin Gordon is not that good, he has fumbling issues, they picked up another mediocre RB, and they don’t trust him at all. This was never going to be the Melvin Gordon show.

I mean. I’m backing up my claim.

You just keep laughing and not saying anything to backup yours.

Again. Anyone who thrift things were going to change simply wasn’t thinking logically.

No you aren’t. You’re just posting a bunch of nonsense.

There’s nothing for me to back up. I thought Gordon would see increased usage, which he did. It was just a surprise that Boone was given entire drives instead of just spelling him.

Except they did change. Gordon was the lead back.

Correct. 18 opportunities to 10 opportunities shows who’s the lead dog.

Sure they wanted to give him more chances to prove himself as the vet. He did himself zero favors with the extra chances.

This small gap is only going to get less going forward.

Yea but tell me here what’s funny

Cause it’s all true and it’s all pointing to him not being the main guy by a big margin like he should be.

He should be dominating this backfield with Williams out. But he’s in close to a 50/50 split with Mike freaking Boone lol

Claiming a guy totaling 104 yards on 18 touches “did himself zero favors” is fricking dumb bro.

I’m not sure how else to spell it out for you.

He had 5.7yds per touch

Boone had 8.5yds per touch

Gordon had 5 touches inside the 15 with shite to show for it

He def didn’t do himself any favors with his increased usage.

Like I’ve been saying. This wasn’t and isn’t going to be the Melvin Gordon show. And it def should be. He’s not good.

I’ll take the guy who got 65% of the running back opportunities, including the important scoring opportunities any day.

Repeating shitty takes doesn’t make them better. Just saying.

Did I say that? Are you under the impression that this is the first time a backup has been more efficient on fewer touches?

Boone was solid tonight, but he wasn’t anything special. Gordon will continue to see the bulk of the workload this season, and you’ll continue to be wrong.

TBH, not sure of many RBs who would ball out against the Colts run D. He did better than I expected

No lol. But when you have the chance to come in and claim the lead role and take the backups out of the equation, and you do shot with it, then signs point to you not being that good.

Like I said before, this was his chance with Williams out of the equation, to come prove that he can be the guy. He absolutely didn’t do that. And what’s worse is that Boone was more efficient with less opportunities. This coaching staff is dumb beyond measure, but I don’t think they miss this fact.

He only put up 8.5yds per touch to Gordon’s 5.7. So if he wasn’t special, then wtf was Gordon? Lol

If you want to quibble and use semantics on the term “bulk” 52% vs 46% then go ahead. I wouldn’t say a majority is the same as the bulk. Reality is, he had a chance to put a lock on this situation and be the 75/25 guy but he shite himself and we are looking him getting 50-55% going forward. If he was good, he’d be commanding higher and that’s just not going to happen.

Gordon got 65% of the RB opportunities, including all of the scoring ones.

The rest of the shite you keep posting about is lagniappe. Gordon is the clear lead back.
