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
Turbin was dreadful. CHarbs isn't an every down back.

Lacey and Jones were better runners, easily. Lacey would be better WHILE eating that Chinese food

He runs to darkness as I said. And is slow. He's lucky to get 2, honestly.

No exaggerating....what RB in Seahawk history that started was worse? (As a runner)
Mo Morris
Christine Michael
Julius Jones
DuJuan Harris
Eddie Lacy
DeeJay Dallas
Alex Collins
JD McKissic
TJ Duckett
Robert Turbin
Edgerrin James (at the time)
Adrian Peterson (at the time)
Marshawn Lynch (2019 only)

That is solely off the top of my head

Most of those guys could get you at least 3. And I would take 2/3 of the list over Charbs any day.

Maybe he's not as bad as Collins, Duckett or Morris. Christine was 3-4x the runner Charbs is. BUT I'll take Turbin, Dallas, as even Homer over Charbs as a runner. Everday.

If Charbs can't get 3, why'd he average 4.3 last season and why is 4.3 equal to Christine Michael's career average?

If Turbin is a better rusher, why did he get out-averaged by Charbonnet in 7 of his 8 professional seasons? Why did Charbonnet gain more yards last year than Turbin did in any year in his entire career?

You are looking at a one game sample in which the OL has not won against the Patriots front 7 at all, and you're using it to make some Stretch Armstrong level stretches.

Wow. Another 2 yds by Charbs (autocorrect turned him into Fishnet...weird) Yay.

See those extra yards there on those two straight plays?

That's something Charbonnet can do for you when given an appropriate amount of space.

Open that up and he's perfectly functional. Otherwise, he's a throwback one-cut back. You need to block for those guys!

Charbs is good in the passing game, blocking and catching. He doesn't seem to fit the offense running stye like K-9

He just saved the game with that scoop and first. Wonderful work on the screen that got hurried.

And check it out. Now that there's space, he gets to the edge and bullies people.

Almost like we saw that last year in multiple games. Weird.
