Nice breakdown by Myles.
Question: With amazing blocking like that, don’t you think that Gurley could have scored there, as well?
I do.
Reason I ask? Because Tavon netted zero yards on his other 5 (count ‘em, 5) rushes. ZERO. I’m gonna go waaaaay out on a limb and say that Gurley coulda done better than that.
And Tavon’s 14 yards on 3 receptions? Think another WR might have been able to exceed those numbers? The answer should be obvious.
No need to discuss Tavon’s PR prowess, is there? I think McVay’s solved THAT problem.
Bottom line? I think that we’re kidding ourselves when we try to convince ourselves that Tavon is a powerful O weapon that cannot be done without. The evidence suggests otherwise. Sigh...
Gotta disagree with you on this on.... watch it again.
He burst through the hole with no hesitation then the high step freezes Chanclor for just a split second and then just blows right by him...
That was a great run.... Gurley might have scored but not like that.
You gotta get over your grind on this kid.
Yep, looks like that “high step” froze Chancellor for a split second.
But are you seriously telling me that Gurley couldn’t have scored there, too? Given that blocking and all?
And what about Tavon’s other 5 rushes for zero yards? Gurley couldn’t have done better? C’mon...
Cherry picking Tavon plays leads to erroneous conclusions. Just sayin’.
Cherry picking? You want to remove TA's one good run, look at the rest in one game, and talk about cherry picking?
Let's pull back and look at the big rushing picture. TA has emerged
7.4 ypc on 145 career rushes. That's with diddly blocking in front of him.
TG has averaged
3.9 ypc on 607 carries.
I'm not about to draw comparisons about their skills as runners on that basis. But if you insist on denigrating TA's contributions, you definitely should look somewhere else besides his running.
