RB Bijan Robinson, ATL (2 Viewers)

[RaidersAreOne]

2.0 YPC today, yikes. Obviously he was a beast receiving so he ended up having an awesome day.

Was his OL trash or why did he struggle on the ground? I know Vita is a beast but...

 

[Lansdowne]

Bijan is looking much better this week. Man, I’m so glad Arthur Smith is gone from this Falcons team.

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Dude is a cheat code. Too bad the rest of his O is so underwhelming.

Legit concerned about Penix and OL.

Legit concerned about Penix and OL.

The falcons defense looks good and will keep this team in games all year. What did penix do wrong? Didn’t watch the game.

Bijan had a ton of yards and can create on his own.

 

[LawFitz]

What did penix do wrong?

Seemed to be missing throws regularly and looked rattled and jittery from the constant pressure in the pocket. JJM looked even worse on the other side, which seemed to overshadow Penix's struggles. One game overreaction, perhaps, but I wanted to see confident 2nd year QBs with command and saw the opposite.

Agreed Bijan will create his own, but in the RZ and GL, they seem to favor Allgier, and if Penix is going to struggle like he did that is going to potentially severely cap Bijan's upside this season.

And don't get me started on London!!

What was wrong with London? Fumbles sucked but it was a great punch by the defender, it happens.

London was fine. I am talking about what happens to London if Penix does not play well this season. One game panic at play here. But he looked jittery and innacurate. JJM looked worse and the Falcons won without Penix matching JJ's turnovers, but I did not like what I saw. Again, one game panic. Maybe.

Relax. He threw for 300 yards last week. This was on the road for the Vikings home opener, not an easy environment.

I think hes the best RB in the league

Imagine what his numbers would look like on an O like Philly.

Dude is a STUD. Imagine his #s if he didn't have Allgeier poaching so many touches.

He's so good. No one even needs to post in his thread. Nothing to talk about usually. Just elite performance after elite performance.

 

[CottageBob]

a joy to watch and roster

 

[pinequick]

This all started about when... Week 10 or so last season, and it hasn't really stopped since? Before that, there were some VERY frustrating Charbonnet/KWIII-like weeks with him and Algeier it seems to me. But since then, house afire.

 

[IHEARTFF]

How concerned should we be about Bijan's production given the recent OL injuries?

I own zero shares of baaaaajon, but if I did I'd have ZERO concerns. Dudes about to be the #1 scoring rb in all formats.

I would take him top 3 without hesitation as well.

For about 3 days I was taking him over Chase at pick 1. Didn't make sense. I absolutely would take him at pick 2 in any startup.

I'd take Bijan over Gibbs in redarft but in dynasty would prefer Gibbs.

Yeah Bijan is 1.1 in redraft imo

Marshall Faulk

 

[TampaMike19]

This YFS stretch is insane. Prime CMC vibes and Allgeier does help keep him fresh for more explosive plays. Would love more touchdowns but this is working well right now

 

[Grahamburn]

He got a lot of cardio last night. I think he was in motion for just about as many scrimmage yards as he ran/received for.

Using him and Algeir the way they did last night was very smart.

They did some work during their bye week.

Bijan Robinson fuels Falcons in MNF win against Bills

 

[kface]

This guy was always a beast. He was criminally underused in Atl until now

 

[Buckna]

Guess we can put that "he has no long runs" argument to bed after that 81 yarder

 

[Alex P Keaton]

This guy was always a beast. He was criminally underused in Atl until now

Arthur Smith should never get a coaching job just based on how criminally he botched his use of Bijan

[Bronco Billy]

Dude is a STUD. Imagine his #s if he didn't have Allgeier poaching so many touches.

As a Bijan owner I’m thankful that Allgeier is there to take some load away. I’m not sure he could take the beating a significantly bigger workload would incur. When you watch him in pass protection he is just nails in the way he stones DLs singlehandedly, but add that to the rushing and receiving and he’s taking a pounding every game.
