People are freaking out over Kaleb Johnson's slow start

Someone here has a little boner for Najee and he is not letting go

 

YEAH!!
You better polish the silverware!!!
wash the dishes!!!
scrub the ....
lol

 

Problem with this thought process is you , and others are leaving out, fumbles, and injuries.
I know a lot of You love Warren, and the way you showed it was to down Najee, but if it were that simple, all RBs would run for over 1000 yards every year. It's kinda like the people who act like never having a losing season is easy. If it was , no HCs would get fired, or have losing seasons. Now I hope, and pray that all of our RB way way way play better than Najee ever did, and I expect them to , especially of Rodgers can keep teams honest.
I know this for a fact. L. Bell faced the least amount of stacked boxes for a 3 year period than any RB in the league did. That stuff matters.

 

No 7 fumbles are not bad at all, but when You figure in the small amount of touches he had to get that 7 fumbles, and people want to see him then get way more touches, and then he fumbles almost 1st thing in his 1st preseason game it makes you worry. I hope he is awesome, I promise. I would rather he be awesome, and help us win games , hell even be a MVP than to say, see I told you wasn't a good as Najee.

 

Kaleb will have more rushing attempts than Jalen? What you think?

 

I agree.


For that matter, I anticipate that Kaleb will take over for Jaylen Warren by the early part of the second half of the season. Not so much because Jaylen Warren is a bad Running Back.


It is due to the fact that Jaylen Warren has a habit of getting banged up during the season. Granted, Running Backs have the shortest shelf life of any player in the NFL anyhow. However, Jaylen was injured four times during last season and didn't look good in any of the times he did return. In addition, he was already injured for much of both Training Camp and the Preseason. Given his increased likelihood of injury, this is going to press Kaleb Johnson into action much sooner than some of us believe.


The question at that point will be "Will Kaleb's Pass Protection be sufficient enough?!" Time will tell in that department.

 

Had we re-signed Najee, we would now have a one-eyed Back in our deck of 53.

I think KJ will be our workhorse RB of the future. I honestly have nothing against Warren(other than fumbles), I just don't think he's built to last.

 

Jaylen Warren's 2024 Season would agree with you. He got banged up four separate times during that season. He just returned after being banged up during this past Training Camp and Preseason.


I like Jaylen Warren but I also agree that he isn't for long in the durability department.

 

Worst Rihanna video ever.

 

That deserves 2

 

But but he had 1,000 yds every season
In a 17 game season:
58.82 yds a game
People only see what they want to see.
Some don’t even believe in stats
That right there was the best of all time!
58 yds a game SUCKS

 

Apparently it was the lines fault

 

If course it is… no one will ever take responsibility for ones actions
I gave into today’s thinking
Everything is my parents fault

 

Ok, I don't agree, but ok it has good points. They didn't pay him because unlike Warren, they knew it would cost a lot.
Ask yourself this. If they thought Warren was all that, and I promise, I hope he is........why did they never let him try being the lead back, even when Najee was hurt, and why did they make sure, and draft a RB high in the draft??
Also like I said before 7 fumbles isn't very much for a guy who get a lot of touches, but 7 fumbles is a lot for a guy that splits touches with 2 other RBs most of his career.

 

Apparently we've had a great line, and great Qbs the whole time was here. Funny that You have also complained about those self same OLs , and Qbs during that time.

 

His stats would've been better if they didn't split the snaps with Warren, ran for 1,200 yards and caught 70 passes as a rookie with no Warren on the roster .

 

Not me

In no uncertain terms my parents let me know what was my fault was my fault

 

Huh

 

True as receiver even if I am not sure it would matter much but as runner,Harris was 5th in carries in 2022,6th in 2023 and 7th in 2024,so he had one of the biggest workload in the NFL in each season

The true,he was ineffective, especially last year with only a 43% success rate(bottom 5 in the NFL) and 46% of his career.He was below league average in 3 of the 4 years

 

He also had averages of 3.2 and 3.5 yards during his final two seasons with the Rams. I can use outliers, too.

Harris is not even close to Bettis's level, but he doesn't have to be a Hall of Famer to be very valuable. The use of Bettis's career average helps demonstrate that Harris's current career mark isn't the microphone drop you think it is.
