A big reason our offense has improved this year even w/o Bell

Yupp. No defense anymore.

 

I'm not denigrating Vance. Hell the dude is my avatar on here now. Big fan here.

Just saying he isn't the reason JAMES CONNER is playing well.

Definitely cool to see him healthy and playing well.

 

Not that 1.7 touches a game matters that much, but care to provide a source? I provided mine.

The bottom line is I think 27 or 28.7 touches is fine for someone making 12+ million a year to run and catch a football. Not catching sympathy here.


Fun facts.. James had 31 touches today

That’s true haha Maybe I misunderstood where your post was going.

The reason why James Conner is playing well has everything to do with James Conner. Sure the Line has been good and having Ben AB and JuJu to take the heat off of him helps... but yeah, the kid looks like he’s got “it”. Let’s hope he keeps this up and it isn’t a flash in the pan (I don’t think it is, just hoping I’m right).

 

yep, they were showing on the NFL tv station side by side stats between Conner and Bell. Agree it dosen't make much difference. Another fun fact: Conner was 7 rushes for 57 yards at half time. A lot of his latter carries were to run out time off the clock and against a loaded defensive line that knew we were going to run.

 

No Tod Haley

 

Yeah this. How about the fact we have an Offensive Coordinator that knows what he is doing?
