Give the RB coach some props. Those guys press the hole and then go full bore. Macks high knee running is starting to remind me of the guy Rathman used to block for in SF

Good Ol' Roger Craig, rock solid RB for a long time.

The entire RB group is probably the most solid I’ve ever seen in Indianapolis.

James/Rhodes, Addia/Rhodes, Addai/Brown, Brown/Ballard. We’ve had duos that could contribute at a high level.

I’ve never seen three RBs that can all be legitimate contributors. Hynes is the best receiving back on the team, Wilkins is a good downhill back that can run with power and still break long runs, and Mack is easily the best pure runner of all of them.

I love the fact that Wilkins/Mack can run the same plays, and Hynes/Mack can run (mostly) the same plays. So much versatility.

If they can just get the deep ball working the defenses job will be so much easier.

On a related note, Le'Veon Bell is currently averaging 2.9 YPC, and 6.1 yards per catch, both well below his career averages. His longest run this year is 13 yards.

And yes, I know he's now on the Jets, but still...

To be fair, the Jets O line is bottom 5 in the league while the Colts is top 5. Still he wasnt worth the money he got and that's what he gets to go to a loser for the money. Whatever makes him happy lol.

Interestingly, even among Jets running backs (all of whom have to deal with the same OL), Bell has the lowest YPC average.
