re: Nick Chubb on final play

i agree with all of that, but seemed like a lack of effort which is very un chubb like. just had to find a body and he didnt even try.

I understand...but he is not used to looking for a block. When he blocks he is pass blocking. he stands back and the defensive player comes to him. It is totally different dynamic than running forward looking for someone to block. it's hard to explain, but it's just different. My guess? they worked on the play 2-3 times and he just isn't used to blocking like that. they either should have given him the ball or put a fullback in there. they were counting on the defense to key on him like they did all game freeing up McKenzie. McKenzie is just too light, though.
