Here's Edelman broken up and the pass is no sign yet.
Edelman comes down with a football and they're saying it's a catch.
It's a catch!
It's a catch! Side- caught. It's a catch.
Skyline.
Touchdown.
Unbelievable.
Swings it way down the field to Watkins.
Sammy Watkins for the touchdown.
Touchdown.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
We are proud to present you the Fumble Rooks Key Podcast by Power 88,
Deem Radio, along with Fans Only Sports Network.
I am your wonderful host, Justin Tucker, along with my good friend, CJ Medeiros.
CJ, what's going on, my man?
Hey, man.
I'm just fine.
We have a good episode in store for you guys.
And yeah, let's... I mean,
it doesn't matter how I'm feeling. Well, I mean,
you know.
I'm just excited for the episode. That's all I'm going to say.
Let's...
You enjoyed 4th of July?
Oh, of course I did, man. Great.
Had me a wonderful time. And yeah, I'm going to Martha's Vineyard next. So if you're listening for July? Of course I did, man. Great. Had me a wonderful time.
And, yeah, I'm going to Martha's Vineyard next.
So if you're listening for Martha's Vineyard and you see me, just say hi.
And that is all you're allowed to say.
Don't.
Come on.
We keep competing around these parts.
Just say hi and keep walking.
We know.
We appreciate it.
All right.
But we have a good show for you today.
On this week's episode, we are going to talk about our top five running backs
and along with our most underrated running backs,
thanks to the Fomorowski Fan Box question.
But, of course, we start with the top five, as usual.
CJ, without further ado, let's kick us off.
All righty then.
Let's start number five with some controversy.
My number five running back heading into the season is christian mccaffrey now there's a lot of people panthers fans that
say he's number one well the stats don't exactly say that and i'll give you one reason why
injuries the past two seasons he hasn't even rushed for over 500 yards and he hasn't even received
for over 400 yards in the past two seasons as well last season he ran for 442 yards and one
touchdown he had 343 receiving yards and one touchdown so he has just two touchdowns whole
season that won't cut it he's slowly starting to become a real big injury red flag.
But, yeah, if he wasn't injured, he'd probably be number two or number one.
But he just can't stay healthy.
I'm a Christian McCaffrey guy.
But, good Lord, I just want this man to stay healthy.
Maybe he'll be top three if he stays healthy.
But at this point in time, sorry, Panthers fans, that's a big if.
That's my problem.
He's not even on my list.
And I know it sounds sacrilege, but he can't stay healthy.
And he's on an incompetent Carolina Panthers team.
So that's the struggle for me.
I don't think he has a line in order to succeed.
So it'll have to depend on more of the pass-catching side of things.
But I'm not sure that'll be the long-term success too considering they have robbie anderson
and i don't trust who they have at quarterback right now so oh oh you mean the ghost man there
he who sees ghosts sam and arnold he threw like four picks that game didn't he oh yeah that was
a fun game as a pats fan to watch and then hold on wait didn't y'all play them too this this past
season yeah and he threw like two picks i'd like didn't y'all play them too this this past season yeah and he
threw like two picks i'd like didn't even reach i'm not i don't know what the stats were from
that game but i know they weren't good and i think y'all i think y'all won yeah yeah we did
so yeah sam donald continues to see ghosts but as far as christian mccaffrey is concerned i feel
like when healthy oh yeah he stopped, he's top five all day.
But the problem is the best thing is availability,
and he hasn't been available to them in general.
So until he becomes more reliable as far as, like, less injuries,
I can't put him in my top five because there's just too much talent
and just it's unfortunate.
But it's also the same reason I didn't put saquon in there
yeah i didn't know saquon's not in mine either spoiler alert yeah so yeah so all those new york
giant fans sorry saquon didn't make the cut my number five i was debating between two players
and in the end i chose with austin eckler i think heler. I think he's a downgrade from Christian McCaffrey, but not by much.
I think what you lack in rushing with Austin Eckler, you get majorly in the passing game.
He is perfect for the type of system they run in Los Angeles.
And along with a quarterback like Justin Herbert, who is top seven-ish, top five-ish,
he'll get a lot of receptions. He'll get a lot of targets and therefore have a lot of opportunities
to gain ground in the run, especially if you have a center like Corey Linsley and a left tackle like
Rashawn Slater that'll make holes for you to run and get like five or six yards per carry.
So I believe that they'll take a step forward.
He'll take a step forward with this offense
and they'll make the playoffs this year, hopefully.
But my other guy, the one that just missed out was Aaron Jones.
For me, it was Eckler that just missed out.
You chose McCaffrey over Eckler?
Yeah, but I mean, just from a skills standpoint, you know? I'm still holding out hope for McCaffrey over Eckler? Yeah, but just from a skills standpoint.
I'm still holding out hope for McCaffrey.
I don't know how it is with injuries.
I'm holding out hope for Saquon.
Yeah, he was so great his rookie year.
Yes.
But then, you know, injuries.
And they didn't really give him a good line.
They didn't fix that line at all for him.
Well, they tried.
They gave Nate Solder God knows how much money,
and look how that turned out.
It was a bad investment.
Yeah.
They tried.
It doesn't mean they were actually successful.
That's fair.
All right, so who's your number four?
Coming in number four, I'm putting the main man from the Vikings, Dalvin Cook.
Now, a lot of people see Dalvin Cook for his injury history.
And yeah, that makes sense.
But last season, I will grant you, he only played in 13 games.
But he still put up 1,159 yards and six touchdowns.
And he had like 224 receiving yards.
It's just the thing with Cook is, once like McCaffrey, it's injuries.
Like I said, despite the fact he put up those numbers,
he still only played 13 games.
But, I mean, luckily for him, he does have Madison backing him up,
so when he's gone, the running game doesn't suffer entirely.
But look, Dalvin Cook, you know, he's fast.
He's strong.
He's got good juke moves.
And he's shown an ability to catch the ball out of the backfield as well.
So just, like I said, once again, it's injuries.
That's really what it comes down to.
If he can play at least 15 games next season,
I'm willing to move him up a spot.
I agree.
As a matter of fact, he was my number four guy too.
I think in the type of system,
especially when they had Gary Kubiak in that zone scheme system,
he was amazing.
He was phenomenal, especially now too.
Even though he only played 13 games, he still racked up 1,100 yards and six touchdowns.
Now, if only he could stay healthy, those numbers would get better.
The problem is he never stays healthy.
So I think that's just a matter of you can only get him for only a certain amount of time due to injuries.
But when he's healthy, oh, boy, he can make plays that only few can.
And it's impressive what he can do.
He may not be a power guy, but he's a shifty guy.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, I've seen him bowl people over.
He's got a little bit of power behind him.
Yeah.
He's got a little bit of power.
He's got surprise power.
But I wouldn't call him a power back.
No, he's not a power back.
But, no, he can.
I mean, he can, like, squeeze through the line, get you that goal line touchdown.
No problem.
I feel like if they just get him out in space,
especially in the passing game,
I think he should get more receptions this year.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
I mean, he doesn't have, like, a nose for the end zone as a receiver,
but he's played for five seasons,
and three times of five seasons he's gone over 300 receiving yards.
Yeah, so it's not like he can't catch the ball or gain yardage.
It's just a matter of how they plan to use him.
And I think it'll just get better under an offensive-heavy mindset of coach
instead of Mike Zimmer.
Yeah.
I feel like with Zimmer gone, that offense is going to take another step forward.
I think a lot of that depends on Kirk Cousins, but don't tell Vikings fans that.
Don't tell Adam that because he still thinks Kirk Cousins sucks.
I mean, he doesn't suck, but he's not like a world beater.
I think he's underrated.
I think considering what he's been dealt with as far as an offensive line.
Yeah.
He's done fairly well.
I think he's,
I think top 15 ish to top below top 10 is fair for him.
Yeah.
Top 15.
Yeah,
that's fine.
Yeah.
And again,
Dalvin cooks on our number four.
Who's your number three?
My number three from the Cleveland Browns,
Nick Chubb.
Now,
well, let's take a gander at his stats. Now, let me tell you something, Nick Chubb. Now, well, let's take a gander at his stats.
Now, let me tell you something about Nick Chubb.
1,200 rushing yards last year and eight touchdowns.
I mean, he's not really a receiving back, but, man, he is.
He's like this really scary combination of size and speed.
He's fast. When he's in size and speed. He's fast.
When he's in the open field, kiss him goodbye.
But when you're in close quarters, he will knock you down.
He will just bowl you over.
And that's like just terrifying.
You know what I mean?
How are you going to cope with that as a defense, a fast guy and a strong guy?
He's basically like kind of like a Dalvin Cook on steroids.
It's like a Dalvin Cook on steroids.
He's like a pure ball carrier.
The only reason his numbers aren't even better than what they are is because he shares that backfield with Kareem Hunt,
who's pretty darn good in his own right.
It sounds like I'm repeating everything you just said
because we might have the same list.
That's why I'm afraid.
Number three is Nick Chubb.
Again, the only reason he's not number one is because he has two freaks ahead of him.
That is the only reason why he's not number one.
Every time I see him play against the Baltimore Ravens, I fear my life.
Ever since 2019, he ran for over 100 yards and 188 yards against us,
and it just never felt the same since.
So every time he goes against us, I always fear, oh, my God,
he's going to break off a long run against us, and we can't stop him.
Once he gets going, he's very hard to stop,
and you need to gang tackle this guy.
And if he didn't show up at backfield with Kareem Hunt, oh, my God,
his numbers would be through the roof.
He actually might be number one.
But, unfortunately, he's handcuffed to Kareem Hunt,
which isn't a bad thing for Cleveland.
That's a good problem.
But as far as Nick Chubb's stats, as far as fantasy, that's a problem.
Yeah.
But, yeah, Nick Chubb is a phenom,
especially for a team like Cleveland that had a bad season last year.
Yeah, I mean, and even still, you know,
there's a bit of a quarterback controversy, you know, like in Cleveland.
But it doesn't matter.
Like, I mean, everything aside,
you still have a really, really dangerous ground game,
like, you know, with Chubb and Hunt.
So you should be fine, especially with Chubb leading the way.
Yeah, especially in that Kevin Stefansfanski offense that's all right who's your number two
now this might surprise some people a lot of people would have him at number one but my number
two is jonathan taylor from the colts all right we're different. All right. You see that? Good. Yeah, we got some variety.
Now, Jonathan Taylor was the best running back last year, I will admit.
He's another one who's fast and powerful.
Had 1,811 yards rushing and 18 touchdowns, starting all 17 games.
Oh, my God. And, you know, I'm a Pats fan fan i remember what he did to us i'm not happy about it
but the dude's a freak of nature literally averaging over 100 rushing yards a game and
five and a half yards a carry and like i said plain simple best running back last year but
i have someone else at number one and like said, this is going into this year because there was someone else
that was a little bit hurt last year that I think, you know,
will be number one next year.
Tucker, who's your number two?
My number two is Derrick Henry.
Big, bad beast.
Now, let's put this into perspective.
He missed half the season, and he almost put up 1,000 yards.
That is – you know how dominant you would have to be to miss half the season and he almost put up a thousand yards that is you know
how dominant you would have to be to miss half the season and still finish top 10 in rushing yards
pretty dominant pretty dominant oh my God he's a beast when he's on the field I think I want to
say in 2020 last time he was fully healthy he ran up for over 2,000 yards. Yes, yes, he did.
Yes, he did.
I think he's the eighth running back to do so in NFL history.
So that was a huge milestone. He then went on the next year to completely be on pace for that same type of year,
if only injuries didn't hamper his success.
What I'm trying to tell you, once he gets going, he is hard to stop.
I saw what he did to us in the regular season in 2020.
It was not good.
It was not healthy.
He ran through us in overtime, and I was punching a hole in the wall.
I was so upset.
I could have punched a hole in the wall.
I was so upset. But he's just that dominant of a player.
Ever since his third year in the league, he turned a switch,
and he's never looked back.
He's just as dominant as he is.
He just hasn't had the season that Jonathan Taylor had, which, spoiler,
he's my number one.
I believe Jonathan Taylor is younger, less wear and tear on the body,
and will only go up from here.
Fair enough.
So who's your number one?
Well, my number one is actually Derrick Henry.
And let me tell you why.
So we look at Jonathan Taylor's stats.
Like I said, he's like 1,800 yards, 18 touchdowns, I believe.
And look at Derrick Henry, 937 yards and 10 touchdowns in only eight games. If Derrick
Henry is fully healthy that season, heck, like I said, he only played eight games or 17 games in
a season. If we double that, so we only played 16 games, he would mathematically have more rushing
yards and more rushing touchdowns than Jonathan Taylor. And with Derrick Henry, I know those leg injuries can
be a death sentence for running backs. But Derrick, I don't know. I don't think it's going
to affect Derrick Henry that much. And if I'm wrong, I'll admit it. But Derrick Henry, just
like you said, he's a tank, probably the strongest running back in the nfl has the deadliest truck
and the deadliest stiff arm he's not really a receiving threat but he doesn't need to be he can
run over anyone and i think next year he king henry's taking his crown back king henry is taking
his crown that's nice but meanwhile while we're're talking about the number one running back, let's talk about that bad, bad man that just so happens to be in Indianapolis, Jonathan Taylor.
That guy had a season for the ages, especially with a quarterback that is as erratic as Carson Wentz is.
He still put up a dominant season. I remember when I knew I was watching something special when he went up against
the Bills and just toyed with them, made them look like little boys out there, and just completely
eviscerated that Bills defense, which is no joke for anybody who was watching. That Bills defense
was good, and he just toyed with them, and they just couldn't stop him, whether it was running
or passing. He just felt invincible that game. Jonathan Taylor put up a season where he had over 1,800,
I'm going to say either total yards or 1,800 yards and over 10 touchdowns.
What do you want to say, CJ?
Wait, what?
No, no, no.
I thought you wanted to say something.
My bad.
No, I'm just agreeing.
Hopefully he'll have more competent quarterback play,
so hopefully he'll have bigger lanes to run through
and not have a seven- to eight-man box to deal with or nine.
So hopefully he'll have a better season than last
and maybe break into the 2000 threshold.
I'm not saying he will because he does have nine lines backing him up.
I think that Jonathan Taylor could have a historic season
this year well it's certainly possible but yeah you know i you know like for me as far as henry
and taylor go you could basically you know flip a coin i mean if he didn't get hurt henry i think
would be the undisputed number one because his stats are already on track to be better but you know
that's we could you know do like if fans are butts all night long so justin uh what's coming up next
coming up next we turn to the formal risky fan box and we turn to you listeners and your
suggestions on who is the most underrated running back in the nfl
stay tuned you're listening to the Fumarushi Podcast.
Here's Edelman broken up
and the pass is
no sign yet.
Edelman comes down with a football.
They're saying it's a catch.
It's a catch.
It's lost.
It's a catch.
Sideline.
Touchdown.
Unbelievable.
Swings it way down the field.
The walk-in.
Sammy Watkins for the touchdown!
And welcome back to the Fumble Whiskey Podcast.
I am your wonderful host, Justin Tucker, along with my main man, CJ Medeiros.
And right now we are talking about the Fumble Whiskey Fan Box,
where we send out a question and we look for your responses.
And today's question is no different.
Who is the most underrated running back in the NFL?
We look to you and we figure out what you guys think.
And the first one is, without doubt, CJ says Damian Harris,
what was it, 900-plus yards and 15 touchdowns last season? and he's ranked top 20 or fringe top 20.
Yeah.
All right, hold on.
I got to rant a little bit here.
As a Patriots fan.
Yes, as a Pats fan.
Let's hear it.
How did he finish?
I believe top 10, either like 9 or 10 in rushing yards.
Number two in rushing touchdowns,
and yet the best those sports pundits will say to him is fringe top 20 if that well i say no the damien harris slander must stop
and yes i know he's not a big name he's not exciting to watch but the man puts his head
down and gets it done and keep in mind he missed two games last
season count so kind of a little bit like derrick henry who knows how much better he would have been
and he played like a full 17 because he definitely would have gone over a thousand yards that's just
i mean i'm not going to say he's top 10 but the fact that some people don't have him top 20 is to quote Stephen A. Smith, blasphemous.
Blasphemous. All right. I think he might be top 10. I will give you that. But you're trying to
tell me in this new Bill Belichick offense, he'll have the same success as he did under
Josh McDaniels? Well, I don't know. I'm not a fan of Josh McDaniels, so I'm inclined to say he might
be a little bit better. Maybe just some
outside runs. Don't just send him up the middle or do
screens every god darn
play. McDaniels.
Oh, it sounds like
a little hatred coming out. Well,
just a little bit.
I guess you were very happy when
they got rid of Josh McDaniels then.
Extremely. We do have an offensive
coordinator, but in Bill we trust.
That's really all we can do.
All right.
Grayson Mortimer, a regular on the show,
said either Devin Singletary or Damian Harris.
Yeah.
I would talk about Devin Singletary.
For the Buffalo Bills, he's underrated
because I don't think many people know about him.
Yeah. Yeah, that's true i mean i'm looking at his i'm looking at him like last season right and uh he still had 870 yards and
like seven touchdowns that's that's pretty darn good yeah i mean he's not really a receiving
threat but i mean the buffalo i mean buffalo is a heavy pass-first team. Even still, you can make a case their best runner is Josh Allen.
I just think Devin Singletary needs the reins a little bit more.
Did you just say that Josh Allen is their best runner?
You can make a case.
It's a terrible case.
Is it, though?
If you're telling me Devin Singletary is a worse runner than no i said you can make a
case i didn't say he was let's all just calm down a little bit all right all right all right
i think josh allen is a very good runner josh allen literally had 763 yards and six touchdowns last year that's basically
just slightly worse than devin singletary it's still worse that's the worst all right
all right enough jabs about josh allen's running ability he is a good runner but i still think i'd
take devin singletary as a runner but josh allen is a big strong running uh threat as a running
because he actually will plow
through defenders like it's nothing oh yeah tyson state another regular on the show says damian
harris easily yes damian harris called rise damian harris supremacy but yeah yeah but but we all know
how i feel about damian harris i mean we need darn good running back would you feel this way if he was if
he wasn't on the patriots i don't know i'd like to think i would because you know i i i mean i give
like props to most people i got giovante williams he's gonna be big next year honestly rashad penny
in seattle oh that's darn good i i mean i just i respect the underrated ones, too. Also, the backup in Minnesota, Alexander Madison.
He's basically like Dalvin Cook 2.0 there.
Yeah, it's kind of crazy that they have Dalvin Cook and Madison.
Yeah, I know, right?
If one goes down, you can just plug one in, and you'll be just fine with it.
Exactly.
Because he's not a bad running back at all all right patrick will ever says madison could be just
as good as cook if he has the starting role i mean he's kind of like cook but i wouldn't say that
i think adam said that he's a little match-up dependent which is true but you know like madison could still start yeah yeah he could start
the problem is delvin cooks better yeah i mean like another team like maybe that's all running
back needy he definitely could probably start you could do a lot worse than uh alexander madison i than Alexander Madison, I will tell you that. Oh, yeah. Ian Mulhern.
Mulhern, I think it's pronounced.
Yeah, Mulhern.
He said Nick Chubb.
How's Nick Chubb underrated?
Most people have him top five.
I mean, I'm not throwing any digs or jabs,
but I'm just saying.
I'm a little confused.
Who's saying Nick Chubb is a scrub,
or who's saying he's not top ten,
or top five for that matter?
Probably the Ravens fans.
No, those are the top 5.
Yeah.
I'll admit he's top 5.
My problem is, y'all just act like J.K. Doddins wasn't injured last year.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
J.K. Doddins, he would have been a beast last year.
But, you know, injury bug's going to get you sometimes.
They got him and Gus. Oh, oh yeah that's right that's the boss
well you know just i mean look devin's nick chubb is a great player i mean like i said top three
running back in my eyes but i just i mean he's great just, I don't see how he's underrated. I would like that explained to me some time.
I agree.
I don't think he's under, I think he's rated just fine.
Same.
Derek Cole says,
Kareem Hunt finished RB 12 in 2018, RB 10 in 2020,
and RB 8 before injury.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's just behind Nick Chubb.
That's the issue yeah brown kind of like
we talk about the vikings the browns have another great running back duo with hub and with chubb and
hunt also please keep in mind kareem hunt's also a great receiving back too and he could also start
in a pinch for pretty much most any team he'd be a great starter on other teams.
The problem is in the Browns, he's behind him, Nick Chubb.
Yeah.
So, yeah, he's a bit underrated, but that's because of who he's behind,
not because of him individually.
Tyson Tate, again, says,
James Conner does not get talked about enough after his bounce-back season.
Yeah, James Conner last season, he was scary.
He was a touchdown threat.
Exactly.
I think he led the league last season with, I want to say,
like 18 total touchdowns, like 15 rushing and three receiving.
I mean, the yards aren't there per se but i mean
but kind of like damian harris he's a touchdown machine what do you think he finished with 15
touchdowns i want to i'm not sure if it was rushing but no it says right no i'm on a pro
football reference it says uh 15 rushing touchdowns
and three receiving touchdowns yeah so that's 18 in total yep so i think he was kind of deserving
of that pro ball not if you can give me oh yeah now i think the running yards is something to
be desired more but that could be just the simple case of the offense he's in, not necessarily
the player, because he only had like 200 touches.
Well, yeah, I mean, you know, the A-rate
offense isn't exactly, you know, friendly
to running backs. No,
but since he's found a nice little starter spot,
I'm not going to complain, especially if you're giving me
18 touchdowns. Exactly.
So I think he
is a little underrated, because I don't hear him
talk about enough, but I think it's just a similar case to, like, Robert Quinn. Like, he is a little underrated because i don't hear him talk about enough but i think it's just a similar case to like robert quinn like he had a monster season no one really
talked about it roberto canado said harris i'm going to assume he means damien yeah that's not
anyone who says naji harris is over is underrated. I mean, unless you're a Steelers fan.
Yeah.
I don't think he is.
But yeah. Damien Harris, apparently
that name's coming up a lot.
Yes, because we know.
We will not sit back and let
Damien Harris just be called barely
top 20. It's not good.
Top 15 easy.
Fair. That is a fair
assumption.
Brady
Etherton?
Etherton?
Forgive the grammar.
Etherton?
Javante Williams.
Yeah, Javante Williams.
He's going to take
off next season.
He's the Broncos running back, right?
Yes, he is.
He's on a year.
Yeah.
Oh, and almost certainly he's going to take the reins away from Melvin Gordon.
Absolutely.
If they don't start Javante Williams, that's a problem.
Oh, yeah.
Same like the next one coming up uh not this one the
one after uh cole hinkley says zach moss yeah zach moss he's uh he's a bit of an interesting
fella now let me tell you something about zach moss he's like the bruiser for Buffalo. Believe me, I'm a Pats fan.
I know.
That guy, he just runs you over.
I mean, granted, he only had like 345 yards
and like four touchdowns last season.
That's because he's primarily used in short yard situations
where you can just plow through a defensive line.
Mm-hmm.
On other teams, he'd be a solid. I'm not even sure that i think he's rated just fine it's just
on certain occasions he comes in to do what he's designed to do for that team yeah so i think he's
good where he's placed i don't think he's underrated i think he's just rated fine he's
definitely not overrated yeah no i wouldn't call himrated. He's underrated a little bit to me.
Mm-hmm.
Kpro underscore 6.7 said,
Tony Pollard, that's the one I wanted to talk about.
Yeah.
He needs more touches immediately, if not sooner.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's just the thing is with Pollard, I mean, obviously you have Zeke there,
but I know some Cowboys fans that would literally take Pollard over Zeke.
My issue with Pollard is that he doesn't quite have a nose for the end zone,
only had two touchdowns last year.
But still, he played in 15 games.
I don't think he started any.
And yet he still had 719 rushing yards.
Not to mention he's a decent receiver who had 337 receiving yards last season.
So, I mean, don't sleep on Pollard.
He's like the dream number two running back.
Yeah, so he had 1,000 all-purpose shots
and still are keeping them around as the number two.
And you can see Ze Zeke potentially might be having
a decline because he's not as
fast as he once was.
I'm sorry,
but I want him to start next year
instead of Zeke. When you get to short yardage
situations or goal line situations, then
we can put in Zeke.
Tell Mike McCarthy that.
Mike,
you know where you need the juice.
It's coming from Tony Pollard.
That's where the juice is.
Are we missing anybody that's an underrated running back that the fans haven't said?
Honestly, I would say Rashad Penny from Seattle.
The thing about him is injuries yeah i think he
just came off a torn acl as a matter of fact all the running backs in seattle him and chris carson
yeah i mean rashad penny stepped in when he needed to and he still had 749 yards and six touchdowns, quite literally averaging 6.3 yards per attempt.
Yeah.
Yeah, remember, Rashad Penny was a first-round pick.
I mean, at least now he's finally finding his stride.
But honestly, I would say he should probably start next year over Carson
because Carson's showing he can't stay healthy.
Yeah, that's my problem with Carson.
He runs super hard, but he can't stay healthy yeah that's my problem with carson he runs super hard but he can't stay healthy
yeah my well of course me being a raven and seeing no one pick jk dobbins i'm gonna throw
jk don's name into that but if i had to choose another one who's underrated? A.J. Dillon. Oh, yeah, from the Packers.
Quadfather and Quadzilla.
I thought Saquon had quads, and then there's the Quadfather and Quadzilla.
Yeah, that's certainly something there.
That's how you know you're a beast.
You have two different names for your quads.
Yeah.
Yeah, these NFL fans, they're a crazy bunch, I tell you.
Mm-hmm.
All righty.
