After rewatching the first half a dozen times I'm going to give Patches a partial pass. That WAS DL is legit. They were consistently getting penetration from their down guys and giving their LBs open lanes to the RBs. In that particular play it looked like the Chiefs did have the play decently blocked up, and Pacheco did miss seeing that hole, but even if he had seen it I'm not sure the WAS front doesn't bring him down for a short gain anyway. They're just dominating in the middle.
If Andy was calling a real game I think he runs something away from that WAS interior. [Reply]

I think he’s a star ready to break out big.
Yeah, Pollard is always like the best back in the NFL on those efficiency charts.
I don’t know all of the ins and outs of Elliott’s deal, but I know he’s expensive. They can’t pay both. Not sure when/if they would release Elliott. [Reply]

They wouldn't. That's the point. Bleacher Report spends time throwing random stuff against the wall because they have writers with too much time on their hands who have to publish and get clicks and then you're posting a guy speculating about a Bleacher Report article that was at best speculating and at worst pandering for clicks.
Pollard was clearly the better back. Everyone knows that. No one is parting with real capital for a RB these days. [Reply]

Ok, how about a straight up trade for CEH?? [Reply]
