Or does anyone else think AM would make a better I Back than QB?

I mean, the dude does have excellent vision when running through a pile of bodies. And he's shifty and solid enough to break some arm tackles. But his passing is horrible. I remember seeing him 10 for 22, then look and see McCaffrey 5/5.

They're both a couple of our best players. But I'd rather take our lumps now with getting McCaffrey the experience at Qb and have another capable back.

We would be in good shape with AM and LM if we were an option team.

It’s just you. AM runs straight up and down with his weight out in front of him. That’s why he always falls face first.

Nope. He doesn't like contact. Which is fine for QB but not RB.
All good points now with him as Qb. But if he actually made the position switch and trained for it (carrying drills and whatnot) I think he could be effective. Not great, but good spell for Mills or run double back packages often.
