Would it be asking too much for the oline, Wr, Te’ guys to give Kareem a hand to get up after a physical run. They left him hangin multiple times yesterday. He’s taking a beating out there!

Agreed. As much as I'd love to run him on every play, it does look like he's wearing down. Can't blame him either.

I though CEH would be back by now. He can at least carry the rock for small gains and give Hunt some rest. The coaches don't trust Steele for more than several carries per game and they're not using Perine much.

When Mahomes motioned him out wide only to bring him right back. You could tell Kareem was like "c'mon man wtf" :-)

I saw that.
They are working him like a rented mule.

That's exactly what I thinking. 6 seasons guarantees your pension.

Lol Hunt had 6 games with over 20 carries his rookie season and 1 his second season. His entire time with Cleveland he never went over 20 carries. Gets signed by KC and has 21+ rushes in 3/4 games. It's pretty crazy.

LJ broke the carries record with 26 per game average. This is too close. Agreed, he was gassed yesterday. Seemed to have more energy the first week he played for us, all that "rest" and then every week playing you get hurt bruised and muscles don't recover, you wear out.
