Agree 1000%.........for the life of me, I can't understand why we haven't seen more of him and Zeke in various packages on the field together. That's on MM and KM......

So has it hit anyone that maybe Pollard is as good as he is because of the limited touches he gets?
Pollard can play the slot, have him run short and intermediate routes from the slot and a few Jet Sweep actions will keep the defense honest. He is everything Linehan and Garret was looking for in the Tavon Austin experiment, except Pollard is better running back and receiver. The big thing is he just needs a little bit of space.The problem is when you have both running backs in, you either don't have a tight end or you don't have a 3rd receiver. Unless you can trick a team with formations, replacing a receiver with Pollard makes your team worse.
It would be nice to feature Pollard more but he needs to stay healthy. Last season he injured his foot against New Orleans and it limited him the rest of the season.
He should get more reception opportunities regardless though.So has it hit anyone that maybe Pollard is as good as he is because of the limited touches he gets?
When you only play 5 minutes of awesome plays.........So has it hit anyone that maybe Pollard is as good as he is because of the limited touches he gets?
Can we at least see what he’s capable of as the lead back before writing him off?So has it hit anyone that maybe Pollard is as good as he is because of the limited touches he gets?

Not true... a fullback is rarely used in the NFL. You can have Pollard run the flank ,(old school formation)The problem is when you have both running backs in, you either don't have a tight end or you don't have a 3rd receiver.
