Charbs is great catching passes in the flat. But he is slow to accelerate and runs to darkness. Not a guy you give the ball to shotgun or far off the LOS.

Remember Turbin? Turbin was much better. He's a FB playing RB

Play call on 4th down wasn't the best.

It's mostly the line. They're not getting push. Sure, a spark plug type like K9 can sometimes break stuff when that happens, but there clearly isn't much there for the backs to take advantage of.

I don't think cycling out Charbonnet for the third stringer helps that. Seems like they need to figure out how to open up lanes more creatively. They're getting beat up front consistently.

Yeah no gaping holes like there was last week.

Why do we vehemently defend Charbbonet like he is Jesus here? No one is asking for McIntosh to even take a bulk of the carries, but not even one? We desperately need a spark in the run-game and Charbbonet has zero vision and looks uninspiring. Yes I am Judas, thanks for asking.

They blasted them open in the second half. Denver had totally lost any ability they had to hold the edge.

That's not true this week. They're getting wrecked on the edge and losing on the interior. There's nothing a running back can do against that other than either minimize loss, or take a risk of losing 4 or 5 and doing hero stuff.
