No, he didn't look as explosive as he used to but calling him a bust after only two games seems to be jumping the gun.
He looked SLOW and we just started.. Sorry but Priest has lost something.. I wouldn't expect top 10 numbers this year unless he finds some burst. People are still living in the past.. I don't think it will be long before LJ makes it 50/50..
Still can't see why people won't accept this. He is SLOW, lost his xtra gear and after every run of 15 yards or greater he takes himself out of the game.People wake up.
I love that you can see some people's handles, and you KNOW what their take will be - because no amount of fact or observation could seemingly change their minds.Once again, I guess you didnt see Priest on the sweep to the left where he got the corner - vintage Priest.
Nor did you see that when the Raiders stuffed the line, while Priest wiggled for a couple yards after contact, LJ went down.
Now, again, LJ is more explosive and when there are big holes has a better chance to take it to the house - but that doesnt make him the better back just yet.
But hey, once again, why let the realities that are in front of you tarnish your preconceived conclusions.
Now, about not having top 10 numbers - I would like to see the 9 RBs, barring injury, that will finish above Priest.
