I like K9 and was jubilant when he was drafted, but man that guy is an injury jusy waiting to happen. He's constantly hurt. Dude would be a top 5 back if he could just get through a season.

I think this is it for him. If he gets hurt again this season, it'll be his last in Seattle.

Been a K9 fan since day 1. And called out for it. Good. He's a hell of a player.
I don't think I've ever been anti-K9 except for the injury bug. Which, in my opinion was directly related to:

He was straight up slamming into brick walls behind a shit Oline for quite a while, and, well don't even revisit the Grubb 'fiasco' of a scheme.

I think the RB room is setup for total success this year. Looking forward to seeing what he can do.

He’ll put up career highs in rushing yards and receiving yards, miss 2 games with an ankle/thigh injury and we won’t see a drop off in production from Charbs when he fills in. K9 gets his family generational wealth but it won’t be with the Seahawks next offseason.

I think with a good Oline creating lanes I could run a ball through, K9 will have a fantastic year. People will be saying "Charb-who?" I'm telling y'all from experience seeing what the Wide Zone Scheme can do for a Running Back, the Seahawks RBs are going to blow up some defenses.

I’m usually Mr. Blue and Green colored glasses but I just can’t trust K9 to stay healthy. He’s already missed portions of the offseason due to ailments or injury. Why should I trust this is finally the year he stays healthy for 17 games?

Sorry my brethren, but I’ll believe it when I see it. I sure as hell hope I do!
Because next year is his pay or break year. Players always tend to 'peak' the year before extension year, then fade once they get their $$.

That's why I'm grabbing Cook over him in Fantasy and grabbing Charbs a few rounds later.

I'm optimistic.

If he were to miss a couple of weeks , we have Charbonett and Holani plus practice squad.

It'll work out!

It better be a good year for Kenneth Walker lll, or his next contract won't be anything close to what he wants.

💯 . Time to show it.

I love Charbs run style…and have at times believed he should be the starter.

We’re blessed in the RB room to even be able to debate who would do what back there.
As much as I’m happy with our current situation and was hoping for it sooner than it occurred, we can thank Pete for K9 and Charbs.

You know…I’m really having my doubts.

I know it’s just one game but, it’s eerily reminiscent of Penny. You think..’why did we draft this guy that high?’ Penny finally showed it for a short stretch.

Still waiting on K9.

I’m almost certain that Charbs fits our scheme better and let’s be truthful here…he’s been more productive.

Keep hope alive…

Yeah. I mean if you go down on first-contact, the writing is on the wall. (10 carries for 20 yards while Sam Darnold himself was 6 yards shy of that on just 2 carries himself and he's the QB? 🤮 )

Charbonet should be the starting RB going forward.

Elevate Damien Martinez.

10 carries for 20 yards. No blocking.

I hope you're not making excuses here for him.

Charbs had 12 for far more plus a TD with no blocking.

Kenneth Walker is washed, man.

They are forcing K9 and I'm sick of it. This two headed monster crap ain't working. Give Charbs 25 carries next week.
