Gerhart has been disappointing but people who call him Slowby make me laugh. He's a power runner not a scatback. I think there is a lot of truth to the point people make about him running early behind a line in flux. They forget the other backs were also performing poorly at that time. Most recently he's been injured.


With that said, I'm not sure D-Rob isn't the better option even if Gerhart is healthy. Gerhart is the kind of back who will need a lot of attempts to get rolling and he hasn't shown any durability yet. Also, although he flashed some big play ability in Minn, he hasn't demonstrated that here whereas D-Rob has.
