He's got some nasty cuts and blazing speed. Would like to see him get more touches.

As someone whose team just got torched by like 7 different Banana RB's, I thought Drake was the most impressive after Lacy.

Yes, and it isn't really Hart's fault. He's made the most of his carries, but Drake keeps busting off long runs.


Lacy and Yeldon both have 30 carries on the year, so it looks like they'll continue to share carries with the first team. Whoever the third back is will have to just wait until the 4th, or maybe just late in the 3rd, to play.

Lacy is getting warmed up. Looks like he's enjoying the dirty yards again. He didn't seem to like contact the first two weeks.

I don't think Drake is very far behind Yeldon in talent.

Drake is really talented, but he is light in the arse and won't get tough yards. He is the most explosive hands down. I like the combo of Lacy and Yeldon best. The other RBs should be relegated to mop up duty. If Fowler was still healthy, he would be in the discussion with Yeldon and Lacy.

I know it's Arky's defense, but Lacy was shrugging off defenders like they weren't there

i was glad to see his little (although watered down version of) spin move again.

I would like to see both of them get more meaningful carries next weekend. At some point Saban has to start trusting one of them now that Fowler is done for the year.

He will. Hart looked good with the touches he had, but Drake is on another level, imo.

I wouldn't mind seeing Sims running some zone read plays in certain situations, either.
