Chubba Hubbard mass improvement

[Barney]

Chuba gets north south very quickly and on the pass plays he is much improved.  Nice to have a back that does not dance around but puts his head down and goes.

Ooof.  I agree Chuba is better than in the past, but being the best one of this RB group isn't a major accomplishment.  Take out his long of 8 yards and his average for yesterday would have been 0.7 yards.  Totaling 44 rush yards on the day, 33 by our trio of RBs is AWFUL...averaging under a yard per carry yesterday.

14 carries for 20 yards is not a 0.7 YPC average.  You're mixing up the numerator and the denominator.

Ooops, yup....1.42 yards per carry for Chuba without his long of 8 yards and 1.65 as a RB group without Bryce.  Wrote it down wrong.

Chuba has been good, but I don't see him as an every-down back. He needs to be used in a rotation and needs better running lanes than he's getting from our turnstile of an O-line. 

Still need to address the position to build a better RB committee. Sanders was an absolute waste of a signing. One of the worst I can remember in recent history.

He looks to be the same guy for the most part minus having brick hands.

The Bills just signed Fournette to their practice squad.  He's been out of football since the end of last season, being released in the offseason per his request (didn't want to play for the Bucs after Brady retired).  Since Fitts loves to poach guys off of other teams PSs, lets give him about 2-3 weeks to get back into football shape and then sign him.  We need a big, between the tackles RB.

not a bad idea. we need a hammer. at worst he could be what zeke Elliott is.

How much of his mass has been improved?

I'm just saying Last Year he dropped like every single pass thrown his way. I said he had the worst hands i ever seen of a nfl rb. but he has been really good in that department this year.

I was never onboard with chubba...but  he seems to fall for 2 yards....

Joke dude. Re-read the comment.

How’s the blocking for Chuba, or any of our RBs?

Chuba is playing hard.  Something to be said for that on this team

[Move the Panthers to Raleigh]

Crazy that we could have just rolled with him and Balckshear and still be be fine
