I saw all of his runs were blocked to get 8, and he got 8. Or blocked to get six and he got six. Or blocked to get 12 and he got 12.

He doesn't add anything, he just gets what the line positions him to get.

His one talent is getting one when it's blocked for none.

But that's not an uncommon trait. We need someone that can get more than is there. Thompson can, but play him too much and he'll break down.

Re: rams postgame

this was probably my favorite redskins game that i've attended. our fan presence was insane. i was on the 40 behind the redskins bench in row 45, there were more redskins jerseys than rams jerseys on our side of the stadium.

so much fun, such a unique stadium. we walked into the stadium tunnel on ground level and emerged 44 rows up. beers were $16 each.

great from start to finish. check this out https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.3bbfc1e0a67a

The blocking was better but in week 1 it seemed like he really lacked vision, there would be holes that opened up outside but instead he'd just run right into the back of his blocker and get tackled immediately. Of course, I don't have the time or patience to verify this by watching film so take it with a grain of salt. But it seemed like his vision and the blocking was much improved this week.

Los I'm glad you had a great time. I have nothing nice to say about $16 beers but you could see and hear the cheers on tv when we made a big play. If you check the clip of CT's long td run you can see at least half the fans in the lower bowl were cheering Redskins fans. The Rams must not have much of a fanbase in LA if half the crowd in their sparsely attended stadium are opposing team fans.
