As McVay has adapted to a two back system, his genius has really shown in how he has a completely different running package for each back that plays to their strengths. Kudos on that!

I'm waiting to see both in the backfield together. Who remembers the days of Cappelletti and Bertlleson???

I dont get this Corum is a better Running back BS. Hes Faster, but thats it.Fumbles are 2-1 this season for KW and BC!

Kyren Breaks Tackles more ! Was top 5 in league before this past week for Broken Tackles.Has Way better Vison, Avgs Higher YPC, Blocks Better than Corum, Catches Better than Corum. Yet All they do is PASS when Kyren is on the Field. Corum had 12 carries to Kyrens 2 attempts all Game until 4th quarter when he got 14 carries, when they finally let him Rush. Corum is Not doing this Against top tier Defenses neither, Kyren does! Kyren also leads the league in Success Rate at 65%. Please Tell me Why Kyren is not Rushing the Ball, when hes the better back by Far? Corum should be coming in to give a breather, and 4th quarter garbage time, not taking away carries by one of the best backs in the league.

This should not even be a debate at all.They are going to force him outta here. Mongomery/Gibbs Walker/Charbonnet Situation.

Kyren Ranks Since 23
Yards = 7th
ATT = 5th
YPC = 8th
Yds/G = 4th
Rushing TDS = 4th
Rec yards (rbs only) 16th
Rec TD 7th
Fumbles =4th ( hes outside the top 10 since 25)
Broken tackles=8th
FIrst Downs = 2nd behind King Henry
271 Attempts have been for 1st down or a TD out of 899 Attempts! Thats 30% 1st in the NFL in Efficiency! Even though Henry and Taylor have more, but Kyren has less touches than them.
 
I don't think it has to be either or. They are a great one two punch. Kyren is the better all around player. Blake is a little quicker and has more of a burst. He showed some shimmy shake moves this week. I think he get to the outside a little better and looks for that more. Playing both keeps them fresh. I like how they are using them together to wear down defenses while they stay fresh.

I don't understand why people have to go one against the other.
They both compliment each other and make each other better and they obviously enjoy the way it's working out.
Running backs can usually get wore out sometimes by 29 years old.
Hopefully this extends both of their careers until at least their early 30s.
Both of these pros are very smart talented driven backs who understand the team concept.
Enjoy the blessing folks.
It's a rare and beautiful thing. :)

KW is the better 3rd down back.

If Corum is feeling it I would ride him because he is the more explosive back.

I feel like Corum is hitting his stride and may become the X factor down the stretch. I would also put Corum on kick returns and punt returns if he can catch punts.

He can't catch 10 yard passes. How is he gonna catch punts?

I've been critical of his receiving skills but he has looked better catching those passes this year, from what I've seen.
Still, when it comes to fielding punts ... i dunno ...

Totally agree. Catching punts is not for the faint of heart. Those footballs are coming down like knuckleballs and are not easy to catch. That's why blocking is so important... especially blocking the gunners... if our guys had more time/space to catch the ball it might put less stress on them to make the catch and then gain some positive yardage.

It’s weird people feel a need to pit things against each other. It’s not like we have to choose between them.
