Thats the popular opinion and I would dare say I think the team also believes that. The issue is pass pro. Did you see the Mattison block?
I think the RB1 job is there for the taking. Ty has to show he can pick up blitzes and make the right protection reads.
This is my assumption because Mattison is just not a good runner but he is darn good (when compared to what we have) at protecting the QB.
So I think the question is, do we play a better RB and have the QB hit or do we play a poor RB and live to play another down with our QB.
Dobbs elusiveness gives us a new dimension that makes it easier and better for Ty. Ty did not have this luxury with Kirk who needed solid protection.. So I think this decision is closer than we think.
