Funny the Jets are a mere 26th even with the great Me V'eon Bell.

Pitt comes in at 17.

NYG only 16th with Barkley? I think this rating puts too little weight on who the starters are, because after all, if they don't get hurt the see the majority of the touches.
Sure, consider depth as well, but the starters are more important.

Rams only 15th with Gurley?

Cowboys only 14th with Zeke?

Henry and Lewis a nice 1-2 in TN.

But at the end of the season, Pitt's RB unit will be considered top 10 if not top 5.

I can see the low rating considering the amount we passed...hopefully we get back to some power I/fullback usage this coming season.

Assuming we actually use more than 1 RB until forced to by injury, I'm really excited about the kid we drafted.

Same here. I mean if you've watched him play the game, how could you not?

I keep saying Tomlin needs to rise to the occasion and use this arsenal of RBs that we have. Fitchner can make it happen he just needs the go ahead.................... I think we NEED to use some two back sets of both Conner & Snell and Snell and J-Sam (all combinations). "D" headache for match ups..........................





Salute the nation

saquon + a random peanut vendor = top 5 RB unit

Now that's funny.

This can happen Coach, but we really need to utilize some 2 back sets. I hope Tomlin got the memo

if you only use 1 rb, what does it matter who is behind them on the bench?

He was a stud at UK and to me seems like the type of player the Pats would draft and make a stalwart. Tomlin is set up to have all these backs fresh come playoff time, but he's got to do something we've rarely to never seen from him and that's display creativity.
