I know statistically he's not, but in terms of ability and moves as a RB, who has been better?

Exactly the play that came to mind when I opened this thread

I think Tre Mason was just as good.

Kerryon has an NFL body, stride, and physicality. He is lacking a little bit in the vision department but I really like his game. Probably my favorite Auburn back since Kenny Irons.

I don't think he had the same agility. He was just a hard nosed runner. Plus KJ can catch out of the backfield

I think his vision has progressed more than anything. It shows in his patience

It was absolutely insane. I'm not sure I remember seeing a back for Auburn look as intelligent as KJ did Saturday

Reminds me, this year, of Kenny Irons

He has great vision on when to bounce it outside.. and you're both right, Saturday he was perfect. Don't get me wrong, he's awesome.. but struggles to see the hole at times. Hopefully he keeps seeing as well as he did Saturday.

He is playing like a full=grown man possessed but smart. He is a leader. Dude has to be admired

I liked Tre, he was a great fit for the offense and complemented Nick very well but I don't think he approaches KJ's talent/skill.

I think some of y'all forget how hard Tre was to get on the ground. His balance was insane, like he had a gyroscope in him sometimes.

I still think he has a ton of room to grow. This is the first time since his freshman year he has looked healthy. Please come back KJ.

I thought of Trey Mason watching the game Saturday. Different styles but when we need two yards it is as automatic as you can get.

Yes he did and KJ and him have different styles. KJ has progressed to something special to watch. I worry about his workload sometimes, and that one late hit on the sideline early on worried me a bit.
He is proving himself to be a NFL ready back. Gary kept comparing him to Le'Veon Bell. I haven't seen him play at all so I do not know how accurate that is?

I disagree. He was just as good. Tre was a beast and like someone posted, I think we are just being blinded at how good KJ is playing right now
Tre Mason was a total beast and had a great burst. He was also very durable.

Yep, Tre was something to watch. He rarely was stopped for a loss and actually got an extra yard or more once contact was made.

Not a big NFL guy but ive heard announcers mention Leveon Bell like in the way he waits for holes to develop
