Charbs done for season

[seabowl]

Remember when a lot of folks on this board complained “what the hell is schneider doing picking another second round running back“. Now you know why.

Time to let the dog off his leash

I feel bad for Charbs. I also hate that we’ll be missing an excellent blocking back on top of his running skills. I do believe though we will be ok. K9 was our best runner in both games against the rams getting 67 & 100 yards wile Charbs only had 37 & 32 yards.

Whether they choose to bring Holani back from IR or roll with Jones and or Akers, I think we will be fine as far as being able to spell Walker from time to time. As far as blocking goes, we have several TEs and a FB if we need them in 3rd and long situations.

Walker just got leverage.

Exactly. My my the negotiating table may get real dicey if K9 shows up Sunday

Well that sucks donkey balls. I was caught up in the win excitement and other games and the Charbs situation kind of escaped my mind. Wow. I just wasn't expecting a season ending thing. Okay. Walker's going to have to carry a bigger load, and we're probably going to change our running scheme a bit. But, in the spirit of the day, we shall overcome.

This does move RB up the priority list in next spring's draft. A day two pick there now wouldn't surprise me.

Outz!!

Whoever steps in better be a good pass blocker, hurts not having zach in that spot.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Big loss for sure.

too bad Marshawn has gone Hollywood. Get Shaun Alexander on the phone! Rivers 2.0.

 

[HAWKN'83]

So bummed for Charbs. I know he'll be fine, but I just can't imagine getting this far, then having to watch from the sidelines. Brutal.

 

[Bobblehead]

You know. we do have a full back..Give the guy some Csonka tapes

 

[AlexG]

Holani only averaged 3.3 ypc this year. Jones should get a handful but I think riding K9 and mixing Shaheed and JSN in some extra touches will be the plan.

In what world would JSN get touches from the backfield

Another reminder that walking off the field under their own power doesn't mean they avoided serious injury.

I can't think of any reason he'd want his health insurance re-activated. Or 14 reasons.

This one?

He’s got like 7 rushes this season.

 

[PateratoWilson]

We’ve been so lucky, overall, with injuries…

We will be ok. 8 quarters to go…

 

[Bobblehead]

I bet Shaheed would be nasty on play action passes
and he wouldn't have to block.

 

[Natethegreat]

What a bummer for Charbonnet and the team. Also Walker just does not block as well as Charbonnet. Much more explosive but not nearly as good at blocking.

 

[hawkfannj]

This is pretty significant. Big loss

Plus I expect to see stunts and blitzes from Shula. Those pick-ups will be key to protecting Darnold.
