Head scratcher to be sure.

Williams will be a game time decision. He had his shoulder in a sling. Moulton may be back. Probably know Tuesday according to Kirks presser. If either is out Jazz and McNeil will both get reps. The depth chart for the RB's hasn't mattered much. Who ever get hot gets the biggest load. Jazz has been in the mix. Ortwerth and Lutmer were also banged up but are on the depth chart..

Lutmer came back in and played a lot

I’m glad others are seeing the same thing I’m seeing about Washington. I simply don’t understand why the coaches continue to put him out there. The guy has had multiple opportunities against middling competition and simply hasn’t gotten the job done. Every other running back we’ve tried out there shown a lot more than he has yet he keeps being run out there. Obviously the coaches are seeing something the fans don’t.

There is always 1-2 head scratchers per year on the offense this year its Jazz

He's leading the team in carries, who gives a **** what it says on the damn depth chart

The argument could be made that your best 2 ball carriers get the vast majority of carries. I think that's probably the case here as Williams, Patterson, and Washington had 8,10, and 3 carries respectively on Saturday. McNeil also had 10 carries. It will be interesting to see what kind of carries he gets going forward. He looked the part last week.

So what are they doing listing Washington #1 on the depth chart then? That's the conversation here....b/c it doesn't make sense.

 

[Freedom]

I'm hoping Watson continues to develop and sees more snaps.

 

[Raymond K Hessel]

McNeill looks good for sure. He may be a bit light for lots of reps this year, but he should add the weight for next year.

Agree Jazz has looked good. X. Williams seems like a Coker / Daniels type, but I'd like to see him break a few more tackles with his low center of gravity.
