If you're sincere, there's nothing I wrote that should bother you.
I'm the one arguing that there is a far from sufficient sample size upon which to base judgment. So, no... indeed... it does not have to be Deuce is on the cusp of greatness... he could be, but we really can't know... nor does it have to be Deuce is on the cusp of being cut, a complete failure... he could be, but we really can't know.
I don't even know that he "has to improve"... sample size... I don't know that your analysis of bad timing is accurate--particularly if you're seeing the one where CeeDee bumps into him (which more likely is CeeDee's fault, since CeeDee controls his pace, but Deuce can only go at the pace that the QB prescribes by handing him the ball)...
It's like suggesting, "Wow, he's a terrible receiver," based on his first reception where he bobbled the ball.
It is not exactly weird that rookies need a little time to acclimate.
Normal, lucid, coherent people don't jump to conclusions based on such limited sample size.
Last, but not least... so tedious to read about Deuce sitting for the rest of the season... when, hell, don't we all know very clearly that this offense was never going to accommodate a 3rd RB with any regularity in the first place, being as it was, an offense built around a bell-cow RB concept?!? And there was never a legitimate way for Deuce to ascend to the #2 since the #1 guy wasn't a pass protection guy... meaning you had to have a #2 back who was a pass protection guy.
Just sayin.
