Bijan has 103 carries to Tyler’s 116.

Bijan is 22nd in rushing attempts, and is 41st in redzone rushing attempts (seriously what the actual fuck).

It is absolutely criminal his usage. Even if he was a 7th round pick, with that production, I would expect him to be RB1, but the EIGHTH pick to be used like this is shocking.

I cannot comprehend what Arthur Smith thinks is best for the team, when our 3 best offensive skill positions are basically just used as decoys.

Any Falcons fan could tell you that Kyle Pitts would be 1st team all pro on most teams, the man catches literally anything and is always open, but nah, Jonnu Smith is our guy.

    Arthur Smith is a football terrorist, but the devil’s advocate in me says Bijan partly has such a high YPC because he does split carries.

      Ok…… but the other guy in the committee is averaging less than 4ypc, shouldn’t the balance be shifted to the productive side of the committee at the very least?

      Nailed it. Allegeier takes the inside short yardage work with defenses knowing it’s a run.

      imo watching how good bijan is makes this very debatable

      In the one clip vs the packers, he jukes three defenders and the first two both happened behind the line of scrimmage. This was like a 17 yard carry on a play where multiple defenders got penetration
