Unpopular opinion? Price should be RB1
I think the difference between Price and Love is now apparent. I don't know if Love's injury last year is still affecting him but Price is just better. He is shiftier and sees the holes better. Love might have better straightaway speed and power but Price's overall skill set seems superior.

Love is dancing too much and looking for the highlight play. They'll get him straightened out and
hitting holes hard again.
He started doing it after they sat him for a couple series. Before that he missed a couple really nice openings because he was hesitating behind the LOS.
The early runs are always the toughest, and the late runs are where you get more yards
Both are great. I think Price benefits from the line getting warmed up and entering the game when our play caller has more of a sense of what will work against the defense they're playing
Definitely. I hate waiting the first few series for our running game to start when Price goes in.

Price 7.4 YPC, Love 5.4. That's a significant difference

Both are good. But Love is a way better inside runner. And they do key on him.
Pass game seems to open up with Love in there.
Disagree. He waits too long, and then leaves his feet, allowing an easy tackle.

The hurdling crap has to stop.

Price puts the ball on the ground.

I hear you. And that cannot be ignored. But Price would soften up defenses for Love.
And I'd like to see Williams more as well. If Love isn't getting it done, we should sub more.
I haven't been this happy with our running back stable since the bettis/brooks days.
They're keying on Love. Different styles. Love is a better inside runner and hammer.
Pass game seems to open up more with Love in the game.

Totally Agree
Have thought the same, although he looked like Love of old in Q4
Like Denbrock, too much cutesy crap. Just run the ball.
