Chris Carson stinks

Postby BigBawseRoss » Mon Sep 25, 2017 6:54 am

why is this dude a thing right now? what in the world has he done to earn an uncontested backfield? he seems like a very pedestrian back, does pete carroll think he is some sort of diabolical mastermind and just over thinks the hell outta things?

I considered a much longer response, but I will just say "Yes". He reminds me a LOT of Mike Shanahan in this regard. He has some success doing things his way, gets lauded all kinds of praise, starts to think far too highly of himself, and then gets so set in his ways that he's blinded to his own poor decision-making.

That said, the problems in Seattle are not the running backs right now - it's a horrid offensive line.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

Are you holding Rawls for now? I am dispirited by his usage and could use he roster spot.

It would probably be wise to hold him another week to be sure. Curious what others are doing.

Exactly. It's not like Pete is telling the world that Carson is a future HOFer, he's simply giving the kid a legit shot to show his stuff. Rawls has real talent but is as fragile as Kevin White, CJP is almost as fragile, and Lacy is done.

Def still holding rawls, if carson were to get injured or falter Rawls would likely get first crack at a full workload.

Remember this time last year when the world thought Christine Michael was the lead dog in SEA? lasted till what week 4 or 5 and then he was cut after being the workhorse prior lol

I agree 100% with what Lukky #13 said , that offense starting with the terrible line stinks , Carson is still the best play right now for Seattle.

:lol: I like the thread title.

I never saw "it" with Carson either, but apparently he's the dude there so what can I say.

He has choppy field and lacks breakaway speed. He's got great power though, good vision and he is relentless. Good pass catcher too. He has solid rookie season ready to go nowhere but down written all over him but he'll be good for a handful of starts this year. As you can see around here he also has nice trade value.

And yes, lol at the thread title

You must be a Rawls/Lacy/Procise owner?

Chris Carson is the best back in Seattle hands down.

that is some great insight, thanks for the analysis....what makes him great? i think rawls has shown a lot more when hes gotten the opportunity, Carson looks super ordinary. Lacy is fat and clearly lost a step, procise had some great games last year but has been mostly a passing downs back and has struggled to stay on the field for more than a few weeks at a time

I used the Carson hype and recent week 4 injury to bye low on Prosise. IF he can stay healthy, and that's a big if, i think he's far and away the most talented rb on that team.

Prosise not healthy this week, making Carson a top 10 RB for week 4. Regardless if people think he is not a long term answer, he has value right now. What is he worth in picks? A high 2nd round pick?
