and you maybe 100% correct. I simply took offense to the blanket "Mason sucks" statements.
I hope everyone is keeping in mind that he was a Rookie two yrs ago, had a lot to learn. Last yr he and the team started all over again with a new offense and even Portis was having trouble picking up the right person on blitzes. Then he went to two teams having to learn their system and play calls. Kinda tough for someone new to the league.
and I go back to you all want to give JC more time, someone who has had several yrs in the league.
and I'll agree he won't unseat Portis. Probubly not Betts, but if given time I think he could only cause his skills are similar and he's younger. As far as Rock goes, Rock is a horrible RB, but does bring a lot of leadership and is great at one job KR.
