I don’t get the hate charbs for some of yall are funny. Dude can block and deliver a hit and go up the gut but yall like to focus on the player and what they didn’t do rather than the Oline completely getting owned and letting people through to him etc etc it’s amazing. And no one’s arguing that he be no 1 but yall seem to try and look for that argument very much .net stupid shit that is typical of .net

“Maybe he can’t get a yard when the defense gives you three, but at least he’s a good blocker.” SMH

Even when it’s “obvious” to the defense that he is only in there to block, but he gets a surprise handoff, he doesn’t produce.

He doesn't seem to be a 'between the tackles' kind of guy. I do love him in open space as a playmaker though

I like Charbonnet, but he did miss a couple of decent holes on that drive.

Charbonnet has some usefulness, but I don't want to see him get another first down carry any time KW3 is healthy.

Also, if McIntosh can't even get on the field in those situations, I don't see why he's even on the roster. Doesn't seem like the team trusts him at all.

He isn't a better rusher than Charbonnet and he isn't a better blocker than Charbonnet, meaning Charb has both the RB2 and 3DRB role locked up over McIntosh. He's just the RB3. There if we need him, but he hasn't played himself onto the field at all.

They used to call those guys “Full Backs”.

He's not a fullback. He's a throwback one-cut back. Spitting image of Cedric Benson in terms of running style.

Grubb doesn't know how to use a back like him. Waldron had a somewhat better idea of how to do so.

He isn't consistent and he is slow. He plays like a fb. A very good fb....but he still gets too many carries.
Occasionally he has a good game, but apparently not today

I think he could have some success with a line that can open up some holes for him to run through. He isn’t the guy that can bounce it to the outside when there aren’t holes to run through.

Is this random "fullback" stuff gonna pop up every time the dude has a couple of suboptimal rushes? Because it makes very, very little sense.
