It's very early in his career, and he's already doing just fine as a back up, nothing wrong with what he did last week. running, blocking or catching. "solid" and "steady" is how CPC described him.
He'll get better with the opportunities he'll have coming up, just watch!
It's not that the zone blocking scheme isn't suited for his style, it's that he needs time to tweak his style to the zone blocking scheme. and he will.
6 carries so far? give it time.
He very well could be the 3rd down back for the remainder of the year, he could prove worthy of that before CJ Prosise even heals. I don't believe there is a better pass blocking back on the team, healthy or otherwise, and I believe he can prove to be nearly as an effective receiver as Prosise, or this new guy, all while having a 1st/2nd down RB body.
I also believe he is quite capable, or it's quite possible, AC is no worse than 2nd string RB the rest of the year.
He's 2nd string right, If he looks good to great over these next few games(and I believe he will) then it'll be up to someone else to show they are playing at an equal level.
And I don't see this new guy, Brooks, Rawls or Prosise doing that for the first half of the season at least.
AC's going to be healthy, he's going to be out there, and he's going to be getting better each week at learning how to run in this style of offense at NFL speed. just wait and see.
'You must be this guys press agent. No other explanation. At best he is Turbin...at best!
