the eerie Akers saga
the even more tragic / bizarre re-injury after being shipped off
and oh the naysayer in me calling for a high pick in the draft for 2024 to address the anemia I perceived at the RB room.
then the kid showed me my hat, and made me eat it with glee.
Nothing short of sensational.
I've been to 3 games now and along with the epic improvement with Dotson, Avila, and company, KW has been a marvel.
A plus runner that can make the corner, has vastly underrated power in those legs, slippery, and has a confoundingly good shiftiness.
No, not going run away from you, however he's been a shoestring tackle away from housing a couple of snaps.
Most of all, that key run coming on the first drive out of the half time break to start the 3rd quarter was killer
Set up the near over throw to Cooper for the TD.
This is thrilling stuff at live game. Need I tell you.
Admit that the first fumble in the game, had me cursing. An old school coach would've pulled him and left him to rot on the bench for that misstep. With a second fumble? Yeah: Enjoy the winter break. But Coach sticking with him turns out to be essential.
TBH, no one often talks about the blitz pickup, but KW met a blitzer with a grueling block. That play might have been the Puka drop.
Yep, the kid is a star without the marquis.
Going forward the club needs an alternate RB not named Royce to rotate.
BTW, my hat tasted like fresh gutter muck.
