Helu was in the dog house all year and was apparently injured for most of the season. Yet, still the pulled Murray for him at one point in the season. Taiwan Jones was being considered for cornerback at one point. The alternatives were awful.Tsunami wrote:How can you continue to say this when he was the starter all season and got 79% of the team's carries?PhadedCN wrote: the Raiders organisation seems to agree with us skeptical fans.
The Raiders have a great line...who will run behind it?

Pretty easy to do when Helu was hurt all year and his competition was Taiwan Jones and the fullback (Marcel Reece).Tsunami wrote:How can you continue to say this when he was the starter all season and got 79% of the team's carries?PhadedCN wrote: the Raiders organisation seems to agree with us skeptical fans.
The fact that they still didn't like him when those were the alternatives speaks volumes.
Unless you're saying that no bad RB has ever gotten the load due to situation.
Also, someone above called Latavius a thumper. That is hilariously inaccurate. He's big but he runs like a bleep.
Even Del Rio said "part of the problem" with their ineffective running game is who they are running the ball with. Oh - and they hope he will be more effective on less carries.
Read between the lines, it's not that difficult. The writing is on the wall.
