Not that I'm against him having a 1200-1400 yard season, but the strategy with McKinnon down the stretch was so effective, why don't we try and bring McKinnon back again to keep the 1-2 punch going?
As much as I love our shiny new car, I'd love not to wear down the tread on him just yet. [Reply]

Good hands? Post and Regular season combined stats were for 19 catches off 21 targets.

Yea because there's a ton of 7th round pro bowls rbs out there. Hey Brock Purdy might have been an elbow injury from leading the 49ers to the SB.....guess you don't need to draft qbs early either lol [Reply]
I feel like during a play if a beer truck came onto the field out of nowhere and hit him during one of his runs ... he would still get up and run for another 10 yards even after the whistle blew. That dude is a warrior. [Reply]

His running style is very inviting to injury. I wasn't a fan for most of the season but he really showed out in the playoffs...especially his patience.
I'm excited for him going forward but I want a talented backfield mate for him because of his running style [Reply]
His run against Jacksonville was so huge from a momentum perspective. That entire stadium and sideline were reeling and it was like he brought them back to life with one run. [Reply]

Nah, that running style will catch up to him. It's great fun to watch but we need a complementary back to offset some of that load. It might be CEH next year but after that who knows. [Reply]
