I mentioned this by him not playing his bowl game.  And could see the issues in the future.   But......

Our number 1 receiver is out the year,  our number 2 has been injured in many games.   Our number three flashes and butterfingers/ ball not Catchable.  

Our number 4 was a walk on.   Our number 5 has played exactly 2 games.  And is a rookie. 

Our number one TE.   Shows up a few games and Dissapears rest of season. Our number 2 and 3 flashes and nothing else. 

Our line though doing extremely well...  Is a mix n match nearly every week.  

And Blake scares no one.  So not like going to respect his deepball.  

So in essence.... Not Fournette fault.   Has he been the monster game changer that Taylor was?  No not close.  (Fragile Fred was injury ridden) 

Is he like Mojo?  Still not close....  

But is that fair to compare???

Absolutely not both had great run blocking lines.  That Fournette does not have.

These are mostly excuses. Which some are valid concerns. But he’s supposed to be the battering ram and he’s not doing what we were sold on. He’s supposed to be the one RB that is the exception to the rule. So far he’s done this disappearing act multiple times. He hasn’t lowered his shoulder and just take the 3 -4 yards with power runs. Instead he’s trying to spin out of tackles vs running through takles. By the way stop blaming Blake for everything. Hes been playing pretty well for about 4-5 games straight. Every game he’s made some beautiful deep passes but have been flat out dropped. Fournette was supposed to be Blake’s security blanket. So far he’s a farce.
