Hubbard is fine if there is a hole where it should be as he can hit the hole hard. If the hole isn’t there he flounders like the 4th and 1 where he turned his back and got nothing. He’s complementary/a backup and that’s it. If he’s your starter against a good D, you’re in trouble as we saw last year.

I guess you missed him squirting through the small hole for the first down. No back can run through a hole that ain't there.

Wait, after a game where we got choked out by a bad Falcons team you thought you'd start a chest-thumping thread about Hubbard running for 60 yards (and no TDs)?

H'ok, you do you, bro. 

I'm talking about perhaps the only mostly positive player of the game other than maybe Hayden Hurst (or the kickers). The O-line wasn't awful at pass pro. The D-line made some plays. The defense, as a whole, was inconsistent. So, yeah I'm talking about Chuba.

Didn’t miss anything. Atlanta isn’t a great D. Hubbard looked fine but he’s not a starter. He can’t make something from nothing. For example, his vision and moves aren’t close to say CMC. He wasn’t good until the OL started playing well. He’s not a starter, he’s a backup. It’s OK, he played fine but what you saw is his ceiling. He will not win games for us.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
