Hope we get to see Chubb and Hunt on the field at the same time.

I'm not sure we do. Nick Chubb is an every down back at this point. It will be nice to have Hunt though.

Well, the way I'm looking at it we can use them the way we used Byner and Mack. Nick won't be as worn down by the end of the season. With the D having to worry about 2 top running backs like that it will open the play action and our passing game. We have a good WR group and it will be near impossible for a D to cover them all with their speed. It could become the O we all envisioned at the beginning of the season.

But still not the O Freddie and Monken envisioned... :-p


There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

Problem is I think they sold themselves an air raid pipe dream.

yep, seems like this offense is not what we originally dreamed and hoped

but, at the very least Hunt is a big upgrade to Hilliard

Sadly, you all are probably right. I really hate to be negative but it's hard not to. There are coaches out there that would love to get their hands on the talent we have.

j/c:

We aren't running the Air Raid offense. Our offense resembles a Bruce Arians offense.

Regarding Hunt. I think we might be giving Chubb too many carries. He was second in the league in carries after our game against Seattle. I like what teams like New Orleans did w/Kamara and Ingram [last year] and now Murray [this year] and how guys like Shanny in SF rotates his backs.

I don't know if our coaches can effectively use both Chubb and Hunt, but I am hoping they can.

I think many people aren't considering that the biggest factor in the life of a RB's career is based mainly on the amount of carries he has. I feel you are correct in your opinion that Chubb is pretty much maxed out in his rushing attempts. Now people can debate when he is getting those carries. I can't say that I totally disagree with them there.

But having Hunt to help split the carries with Chubb can only act to help insure his health and longevity. As the season wears on, RB's can wear down. The timing of Hunt's return is perfect.


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

That was random, outside the lines, and disturbing.
