I have to say Hunt didn't impress me today; Zeke is a lot tougher

[haleyrules]

Zeke is fat!

and slow.

 

[Proof]

Use my reading comprehension? Do you even know what that means? Him and Zeke are of the same caliber is my point. Hunt is a different back than Zeke. We can sit here and talk about what each does best......but you can't make up or create what Hunt has done. He's a MVP candidate. A great back.

Ehh. Kid is good and Andy Reid is great at using his backs. They were both on display here and one looked dominant while the other ... didn’t.

One was was one of the best players in the toughest division and the other wasn’t.

One already has a year in the league destroying teams, the other has a few weeks.

And all that to say I really like Hunt. I love zeke

Hunt had more yards per carry than Zeke and only had 9 carries lol. Andy Reid got incredibly out coached today. No one will say that because everyone hates Garrett but he let Garrett outcoach him today and it wasn't close.

He is a tremendous player, kid will be special for years to come.

If true, I think it would be more of figuring out a scheme,

I think that's true to a certain extent, but every runner has a little of a bit different style(unique combination of strength, agility,etc.) and tendencies. Hunt wasn't high on everyone's radar at the beginning of the season, now there's more attention and tape on him. I think that makes a difference.

I think you're misunderstood. There's no argument being made. My stance is not only is Zeke a great back but Hunt is a great back also. You don't just luck into leading the league in rushing in your rookie year. ITs ok to think Zeke and Hunt are both great backs.

No you misunderstood.

Hunt is a very good back even though he is early in his career. I mentioned him to my brother early on this year as a special back but Zeke is in another league most people don't even understand or see. A very special talent.

 

[guag]

**** Hunt. He doesn't play for the Cowboys.

 

[InDakWeTrust]

Hunt is good, not quite dominant like Zeke or a gamebreaker like McCoy was but still a bellcow back.

No you misunderstood.

So you are still misunderstood. Why are you telling me about Hunt and Zeke? I told you Zeke is better. Do you see why I said you don't know what you're talking about? You're arguing against someone who isn't arguing the point you are making.

I will say if the lawyers need more evidence that suspending Zeke before the real trial is a bad idea, remember it is now about irreparable harm. We can also add that he is but a few yards from being the lead back in the NFL for the second year in a row.

Speaks volumes seeing he is also dealing with this crap.....

 

[guag]

I love how some are overreacting about semantics here... "how could you disrespect Hunt by saying that he's only very very good? you homer!!!!"

 

[Jake]

and it was very obvious in the game today. Hunt got sandwiched by Lee and Hitchens with 2 min. to go in the 2nd qtr. and he disappeared the rest of the game. Zeke was in full beast mode. Just unreal.

KC only gave Hunt 9 carries. That was foolish on their part, but I'm okay with it.

 

[Chuck 54]

We were committed to stopping the run. Hunt made some great 2-3 yard runs with spin moves and jump cuts, making guys miss, but we were always closing on him. His best games have seen him free in the secondary where he abused guys.

So you are still misunderstood. Why are you telling me about Hunt and Zeke? I told you Zeke is better. Do you see why I said you don't know what you're talking about? You're arguing against someone who isn't arguing the point you are making.

No, your first statement was "Hunt and Zeke are the same caliber". Suggest you go back and read your posts.

 

[RomoFor6]

He is so good. Today was one of those games where stats don't really tell the whole story. You'd think from his YPC he had a poor game but I feel like every one of his carries gets 3-5 yards when they should get 0-2. Such a special player. Just needs some more explosive runs.

I also right after that said Zeke is a better back. Him and Hunt this season are of the same caliber. If you remember Zeke struggled out the gate. Hunt came out the gate swinging. Hunt didn't just luck into leading the league in rushing.

I didn't know he ran 3 yards a carry. I thought he ran well today.

Two or three runs when he's tackled immediately 5 yards behind the LOS will do that

Hunt didn't particularly impress me, though part of that was because our defense had a good day swarming. And pretty good day making tackles (outside of a couple painfully noteworthy exceptions, of course).

And, as the announcers kept harping on it, we were making some choices to sacrifice our pass-rush in favor of our run-defense, having the linemen play the run initially instead of just sending them directly after the passer.

Of course, as someone who lived in Eagles country for most of Reid's tenure there and so has seen tons and tons of Andy Reid games, it also felt like a very familiar Andy Reid day where his team didn't call nearly enough runs. At the end of the day, Hunt averaged more yards per carry than Zeke. Zeke got 27 carries and the Chiefs saw fit to hand it off to Hunt only 9 times. They took their own guy out of the game more often than we did, honestly.

lol dink is simultaneously the lamest and
Somehow the most savage insult

lol...I had something much stronger but changed it due to fear of mod's wrath. 'Dink'is an oldy but a goody. Certainly fits him.
