He looks like he is running hard to me. He doesn't have elite numbers, but I like him. But like you said, he is a RB2 for sure. Like most on here, I would be interested to see Blue.
Definitely runs hard, he just runs like he has an anvil for an ass, which is amazingly more than I can say for Sanders.

I like him for what he is, I don't blame him for the organization being obtuse about the RB position.

I'd be curious to see how many of those came in the first half vs. the second.

Their pass rush was much more of an issue in the first half, in the second half the passing game was rolling the entire time, and I think we scored on every possession after the Dak INT to open the half until OT.

33 is averaging 4.6 per. Could definitely be worse. Like when they put in sanders
He has been good. Sort of solid RB play. I really think if Blue or Mafah can filled that complimentary role this year we could have a good running back room. Sanders is just kind of useless.

I think they would've attempted a 70, maybe even a 75 yarder yesterday if it was the last play of the game.

Nobody is doing that in any other circumstance since the other team would immediately be in FG range themselves.

The crazy part is I think it's a greater than 50% chance he hits a 70 yarder if you attempt it.

I believe it.

He's the guy I'm actually worried about.

Diggs is meh but I think still passable, Bland is good, I think Hooker and Wilson will be fine, but Elam looks like absolute shit.

Once Bland is back I'd roll with Diggs/Bland/Steward honestly, and then if Revel can play at any point go with Diggs/Revel outside and Bland in the slot.

I would cut him today. There's nothing to salvage and part of their game plan yesterday was to go directly at him.

Yeah, gotta trust the coaches I guess, but I can't help but think Jerry is influencing Sanders' active status based on his FA contract.

I do worry about Blue's durability.
