Chiefs Damien Williams: is it time for a change? - Page 6

dlphg9 · 11:54 AM

I know the title is my own question, but I'm going to answer my own question. This guy has very clearly shown that last year was an absolute fluke. He can't do anything worth a shit and if Veach wouldn't have given him a stupid ass extension, then he'd be off this team. In what universe do you keep giving the ball to a guy that has 41 rushes for 70 yards and 1.7 ypc. This last game was absolute dog shit 11 total touches for 6 ****ing yards. Are you kidding me? He shouldn't touch the ball again.

Bad is an understatement. He's horrendous. Literally the absolute worst back in the league. There are 43 qualified players and he ranks 43rd in ypc. He's at 1.7 ypc and no one else is under 3.0 ypc. The distance between him and the 42nd rank player, Le'Veon Bell, is 1.3 ypc. The distance between Le'Veon Bell and the 20th ranked player, Chris Carson, is 1.3 ypc.

This is definitely something that needs brought up more. That's gotta be some kind of record for worst ever. We are seeing history boys. The absolute worst RB performance in the history of the game or close. I took off the hide non qualifiers filter and it looks even worse. He's 192 out of 227. There are only 5 other players with 10+ carries that average less ypc, it's pretty much a Who's Who of most electric runners in the league.

#194 Kalen Ballage - 22 car/36 yards/1.6 ypc/13 carries since being demoted from being a starter 3 games ago

#198 Joe Flacco - 11 car/11 yards/1.0 ypc/He's a statue of a QB. **** id hope Williams would have more ypc than this bum. Spoiler alert - all the rest of this list is the same. Statue QBs.

#208 Jared Goff
#210 Jimmy G.
#213 Tom Brady

Did some more research and going all the way back to 1999, so 20 other years, and the lowest ypc for qualified runners is 2.5 ypc in 1999. The average of all the lowest ypc is 2.9. I can't believe how bad that he has been. There is no way anyone can even try to defend him. He's the king of shit fest running backs and for Reid to continue to allow him to play is egregious.

Where are the “he’s better than Hunt” people at? I’d love to hear that argument.

We already have 4 ****ing RBs. If you cut Damien then you roll with Shady, Darrell and Thompson.

He is fine.

Let the season play out. He will probably score 3 touchdowns against GB.

I'm not interested in letting the season play out when he continues to play like the worst RB ever. If Mahomes were healthy it wouldn't matter, but since he is out we will need a good RB to win. He's God ****ing awful.

JakeF · 10-19-2019, 01:31 PM

Denver game showed that McCoy is our goto back. Reid puts a huge priority on divisional games and McCoy got almost all the carries when the game was still on the line.

If Damien is as atrocious as this thread would lead one to believe, why not go get a guy with experience who can run between the tackles. No one we currently have has done that well at all.

I'd love to see Thompson given a shot. Yes he's small, but damn did he run like a bulldozer this preseason. I'm not sure I understand the reluctancy to use him, especially with how bad D Willie is

That jumpcut he made on the first big run was sick, slipped between a two foot gap with it... sure wish he was 3-4 years younger so we could ride him harder

**lewdog** · 10-19-2019, 03:20 PM

Shady looks quick. 15-20 touches a game shouldn’t be a problem.

Williams looks like a turd sandwich.

When the coach limits your playing time because your sucking real bad look to the bottle. Not saying its the bottle but its the bottle.

FloridaMan88 · 10-19-2019, 06:58 PM

Every Damien Williams running play is a wasted down.

1.7 YPC.

Darwin Thompson should replace him in the RB rotation.

Or just give Darrel more reps and make him the starter

Megatron96 · 10-19-2019, 07:04 PM

If Reid/EB aren't oging to give Damien more quality reps, then probably they should see if Darrel can take his reps earlier in the game. See if his 4.0yds/carry is legit. I still think we need Shady to be as healthy and fresh as possible down the stretch, so he's going to need to stay around 15 touches a game for now.

Give Damien more quality reps? WTF? He's averaging 1.7 ypc. You can't blame anyone but the player for that shit.
