Kamara & Fournette you can at least make a halfway intelligent argument for. McCaffrey is a gadget player. You don't like those, remember? Cook, with his torn ACL, history of fumbleitis and off the field issues? Really?
And Mixon and Henderson aren't even worth mentioning. This is why people don't take you seriously here.
You're either trolling or just a complete fucking moron. [Reply]
"Broncos are just a QB and RT away." :-) Philadelphia and Minnesota sure blew that one up. Philadelphia is in the NFC championship game despite missing their starting LT and QB, and Minnesota has changed their starting OL 8 times and is also starting a backup. You see, Knowmo, those teams actually ARE loaded.
You should be infuriated that Vance Joseph is still the head coach of the Denver Broncos. Despite being a defensive minded coach, he took a unit that allowed 297 points in 2016, added some damn good players to the D Line, and allowed 384 in 2017. What the **** even??!? With how ****ing STUPID Reid performs in the playoffs, he at least has 1 redeeming quality; the ability to develop QBs. Vance Joseph has nothing.
Face it, Knowmo. If the Broncos don't right this ship ****ing fast, you're staring down the barrel of a multi year rebuild. [Reply]

This is an old argument. I said way back in August and September that Hunt might be the 6th best RB to come out this year behind Fournette, McCaffery, Cook, Kamara, and Mixon.

Nice cherry picking of stats.
Did you notice that is his first 5 games, he averaged 20 carries a game. When he went into his 'funk' where his YPC and total yards dropped in the middle 7 games, he only averaged 14 carries a game. In his final 3 games in December(not including his one carry game against the Donkos), he averaged 26 carries a game and amazingly, his YPC and total yards shot back up.
It's almost like his head coach/OC didn't know how to use him properly the whole year . . . . . [Reply]
Kamara looks better because he has Drew Brees and a dominant OL. The box is always open for him to make plays bc teams respect Brees. He also has Ingram do the real work between the tackles.
RB’s are usually either between the tackle bulldozers or pass catching RB’s. Jamaal was a pass catching running back. Kamara and Cook are not consistent between the tackle players. Neither is McCaffrey. They won’t consistently pound the rock up the middle and punish LB’s.
Kareem is an all around caliber back. He can break tackles better than anyone, he can be a weapon in the passing game on screens, he can be a WR if needed. He also never fumbles. 1 lost fumble in his last 5 years of football.
Get out of here with your McCaffrey 3.7 YPC bullshit. He is a gadget player that Carolina stupidly chose over Marshon Lattimore. [Reply]

So far I'm wrong, he's the 5th best RB.

It's kind of funny how much KnowMo likes McCaffrey (I remember him praising him before draft and wanting Donkos to draft him), despite him being a gadget player. You know, the thing KnowMo hates.
Kareem is a MUCH better all around back than almost all of the guys on his list. The only thing Kareem needs to work on is his picking up blitzes in the passing game. Luckily, that is something that can be taught and refined with better technique. [Reply]
