everything says short yardage about him, except his balanceIs it me or does it look like Yant just isn’t suited for power short yardage runs. Seems he stumbles , looses balance , or just trips and falls toward the line when he needs to get a push into the line.
not sure, maybe nicked up ankle or kneeI get that Grant is the guy but what has Gabe done wrong that he isn't seeing more playing time? The guy impresses every time he plays.
How did he do that? Short legs, long torso........
Gabe reads well but he’s a step slow and not big enough to really muscle it. He’s a jack of all trades master of none when it comes to backs. He’s YPC is awful especially when you take out outliersI get that Grant is the guy but what has Gabe done wrong that he isn't seeing more playing time? The guy impresses every time he plays.

they fumbeled crouch into the hyesmenExtremely underrated I-back duo
Buckhalter and Alexander
Yant, until this week, has just been the short yardage guy. YPC doesn't translate that well.Yant has 3.8 ypa (49 yds) this season while Ervin has 5.5 ypa (82 yds). Not a huge difference but Ervin is actually doing better this season than Yant. Ervin just looks more electric when he carries.
I hate the way Yant runs the ball. When he's going to get tackled he turns his back to the defender. Like he's afraid it's gonna hurt.Yant runs too upright
similar to Dan Alexander - except far less talented and much slower

Agree. He is probably used more in short yardage situations. What I can't understand is why a RB with better stats has so few carries.Yant, until this week, has just been the short yardage guy. YPC doesn't translate that well.

and when you have a bad O-line, you can’t rely on a guy to just read the play. You need someone to juke & speed it (Grant) or Muscle it (Yant)
Grant would be solid if he has holes. But that’s about all
Read that he’s injuredI’ll ask again, where is R. Johnson ? Forget that slot receiver stuff if we need another running back.
