Kyler creates ALOT of drakes yardage.

He does.

I think the interior offensive line isn't blocking as well as they were early in the season. Also the way that teams have defended the pass has also made running harder, stack the short and intermediate zones and closing hard when they see a run coming. As much as I love Murray, if he improves in the passing game, running will get easier as well.

name to think about in the offseason if they move on from Drake: LeVeon Bell

not saying you give him big dollars -- but worth a look

Because as I've said. Drake is 29th in YPC. He puts us in far more 2nd and 8 situations than Kliff would like.
Hmmm, u are critical with almost every Cardinals players
Murray can t read defenses
Drake doesn't bring too much in the run game
Humphries overpaid
Interior line is garbage
Golden is slow and old
Zach Allen bust and doesn't have the traits for the pro football
Reddick numbers inflated by just 2 games, just 1 year wonder
Etc etc

will be 29 this Feb, but coming off of a season with little wear and tear. Probably good for 2 solid seasons.

You give up some of Drakes breakaway speed, but also bigger at 225 lbs

I was a big fan of the Drake signing and his play last year, he's been worse this year
Humphries has been great since the Carolina game and I've said so, before that he was poor, and I said that too
I've said no such thing about the interior, I've said our pass pro is good (except Sweezy) but our run blocking is poor. Half the board has said that.
Golden is 30 next year and he's always been a motor guy, not speed. So yes, he's old and slow.
I've said no such thing about Zach Allen. I said he's been poor in the interior but that I don't think he's made to play interior, he didn't in college. They should try moving him back to Edge.
Reddicks numbers ARE inflated by just two games and he is a one year wonder. That's just a fact.

On his current pace he would hit 1,060. That seems awfully low for top 5. Must be a really off year for rushing.

That would be . . .
14th in 2019
7th in 2018
8th in 2017
11th in 2016
8th in 2015
12th in 2014
12th in 2013
15th in 2012
13th in 2011

so roughly 11th in an average year. Reasonable.
If Edmonds is injured...... Drake may be a volume stud this weekend.
