Bucky next week with a juicy matchup..we should be able to see all 3 produce again all the way down the stretch.

Carolina trotting out the worst run defense in the league, giving up over 160ypg.
Coen is fixing to have a field day with his backs.
I am a fan of White but is it possible he slides down the chart? Hard to picture him consistently running with the approach we see so far from Irving and Tucker.
Not "sliding down the chart" and no dancing from White - something he improved upon last season unbeknownst to your dumbass.
You're 0/2 here, keeping your lifetime average at .000.
Check in after Week 1: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 2: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 3: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 4: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 5: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 6: Rachaad White - Inactive w/Injury. Still #1 on the Depth Chart.
Check in after Week 7: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
I can keep this up, or you can man up and admit you were wrong about "sliding down the chart," White's place on the depth chart was secure in the preseason, and you were unaware that White stopped the dancing last season. That's all it will take, but I'm guessing I'll be making a similar post this time next week.
Check in after Week 8: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
I figured I would be posting this again. Absolutely no shame.
Check in after Week 9: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Shameless ignoramus.
Check in after Week 10: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 11: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 12: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
So we saw a more defined role.
Bucky is electric.
Tucker was getting short yardage and goal line until his fumble which they're going to hang over his head the rest of the season when Irving and White have worse fumbles.
White leaves too much meat on the bone. If the line gives him 3 he'll get 3. If the line gives him 12 he'll get 12.

I can understand the argument that Irving's fumble was worse, but I'm anxiously anticipating how White's fumble was worse than one on the goal line?

This isn't accurate either. There have been plenty of time that White has had to put his head down and blow through blockers just to get back to the LOS.
they're going to hang over his head the rest of the season
the next conspiracy theory
Rachaad White is the starting RB
Irving 12 rushes 7.2 ypc (64 yard receiving)
White 12 rushes 3.1 ypc (10 yds receiving)
Tucker 4 carries .8 ypc. (7 yds receiving)
I think White was in on the first series tho!!!

White and Irving had the same number of carries against the Giants. Irving’s YPC is roughly double White’s.
same line, same game, same defense
White is a good RB who does many things well. His STYLE though is a bit like Leveon Bell meaning he has a pause and shuffle approach many times. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. Go back and watch his first two runs. He shuffles both times one time it helps the home open up the next time not so much
Someone who runs with his style can be effective they can also get caught more behind the line so without a few bigger breaks the YPC is down
@bucsbits - Its pretty telling that Coen has led with Bucky the last two games. Bucky has the potential to make something out of nothing on every tough. White is a workhorse. Tucker is a great guy to have on your bench.
It is amazing to me how good White is in space - after catching a pass - than when he takes a handoff behind the line. He has been much better reading holes this season - but he’s still not as good as when you set up a screen or get him a quick pass on the perimeter/just over the LOS…
Not to mention his value in the blitz pick-up. Hes not flashy in the run game, but he absolutely flips a switch in the screen game!

yes we are very fortunate to have 3 quality backs.
The whole 12 game trolling streak of Biggs and DH stems from my suggestion in the preseason that White might slide That was based on watching him run and listening to the coaches. I did not mean White was bad - far from it, I am a fan - I meant that the coaches were clearly looking for their RB to hit the hole quickly and that is Irving’s natural approach.
White is awesome though, particularly in space and on passing downs. so that’s why it’s been hard for Tucker to get in the field
Tucker did not take advantage yesterday. Disappointing

Leaving meat on the bone means he's getting 5 when he should get 12... Getting 12 out of 12 isn't leaving meat on the bone lmfao.
Bucky is eating the whole damn chicken tho.

He was all short yardage tbf. He picked up a 3rd and short and he scored on the goal line. That's gonna skew the stats.
White's average was watered down a little by the last 3 runs to run out the game but overall he was fine... Hard to get in a groove when Bucky is getting it all (on my bench in FF).
So idk. All 3 did enough.
Baker scrambling also elite.
Run blocking was very good too.
