9 carries for 37 yards and a TD, and 2 receptions for 6

Not sure how he lasted until the 5th round with that skill set out of the backfield

Speaking of the Eagles, they played a good game today. Especially Jalen. I thought he did a nice job of coming out and putting up a good,effective performance. He ran quite a bit, but it worked. Nick Sirrani has gotten some criticism from analysts because of pressers he's done, but I think he could end up being at least solid as a Head Coach. The Eagles did play a shaky Falcons team today, but it was a good start for them nonetheless. I wonder how they will fare going forward this season.

Justin Herbert who is my favorite of the young talented QB's not named Mahomes, led a nice comeback for the Chargers to help them get the win, (Especially after some shakiness in the 3rd quarter). Russ and the Seahawks had a nice win against the Colts, and the 49ers had a good but interesting game, with them playing both Jimmy G and Trey Lance multiple times. It's going to be interesting to see what happens at QB there and if Trey may end up being inserted as the full starter in their lineup at some point this season. 

And I'm enjoying the Browns/Chiefs game right now. The Browns have become very fun to watch. Kevin Stefanski is a really good Head Coach. His playing calling including in this game has been impressive. They have been a nice job of neutralizing Patrick Mahomes a bit, though he's still made some nice plays and their offense is rolling. Unfortunately, their LT Jedrick Willis suffered an injury in the first half, but still have a good O-line. The Browns was the second team I rooted for last season and I'm going to do that again. After years of a lot of suffering for their team, and fans, it's nice to see the type of turnaround they have been having the past couple of years. I wonder how far they will go this year.
