Should KJ be starting at RB

[SI_NYC]

KJ was clearly the standout back today, showcasing the best performance on the field. Moving forward, should he be the starter, or will the coaching staff continue to utilize him as they did today? One could argue that the current strategy—wearing down the opposing defense in the first half with the smaller, quicker backs and then unleashing KJ in the third quarter for a powerful, game-changing contrast—might be the most effective approach.

Kaleb and Jazz were suspended in the first half for violation of team rules.

yes

 

[squeezebox]

absolutely, complete difference with him in the backfield

 

[Zooropa_NCR]

Yes. He’s not a change of pace back. He’s a workhorse.

He might have a handful of runs that don’t produce much, then it’s one cut and he’s gone. He’s consistently been the big play threat the last 3 seasons and yet his carries are min

I just like how he glides. Give him a hole on 1st level and look out.

I like using all 3....

He will be #1 on the next depth chart

I love using all 3. The nits to pick on him last year were that he went for the homerun too much, tried to pop it outside rather than put his head down to get 5 yards. Those words are from the mouths of a coach (Betts, maybe).

He ran super hard today. We have great backs right now. I think we keep throwing a bone to the top 3. Jaz may just be buried. It's hard to feed 4 guys. Give Washington a couple jet sweeps or quick throws. I think Jaz may be #5 in the RB room.

I did not know that.

Outside of the home run threat, I like that he gets positive yards on first down and in a lot of situations, puts us in 2nd and manageable.

I missed that. Thanks.

Jazz ended up suspended for 2 halves instead of two quarters.
