Not only is Jeanty just amazing, but he brings something very different from JT. That would be a 1-2 punch for the ages!

Jeanty does have some appeal and on the smaller size of a typical NFL RB mold but for comparison Kennth Walker III is only 5'9" 211 pounds and is a top RB in the NFL.  For me gave him a small knock down due to size and 4 career fumbles somewhat troubling.  Especially if he has more this year.

Another (and better) example would be Emmitt Smith (one of the all time greats IMO) was 5'9", 212 lbs.  I'll never forget the game he ran for over 200 yards with a separated shoulder to get Cowboys into the playoffs.  If Jeanty can have even half the career Emmitt did, he will have had a great career.

      Colts at Titans postgame reaction

      By Restinpeacesweetchloe · Posted

      I think none of us saw the full practice on Thursday. Maybe he didn’t look great in Thursday practice so Steichen made the decision after that. The fact he went back to limited after having a full practice tells us a lot.   Derek Carr has the same injury and is going to miss 2 to 3 weeks..

      If he is injury prone then he is done, time to move on. You cannot fix injury prone be sitting on the bench. The problem is that he has not been hurt playing QB. He gets hurt while trying to play running back. All running backs get hurt. All Running QB's who try to play Running Back get hurt.    Don't understand anything about learning from Flacco. The same crowd wanted Minshew last year for the same reason when anyone with any sense could see he was limited. He goes to Vegas and is now on the bench. If Flacco was in Vegas he would be on he bench.  You may win some games with Flacco but you cannot win with Flacco. We only scored 2 TD's yesterday.  One of those was because of a great play by Pittman. Flacco was not very good against a bad team. He threw high and gave TN an easy interception. AR can do that. He threw into the crowd twice and was picked off and was saved by penalties.  The only way to find out if  AR is the QB of the future is to play him. Do you want to find that out now or waste next year as well.

      For perspective, Goodson had one run to the left that gained 33 yards. His other 7 carries were a 2.6 yd average. It's not talked about much, but Fries was having a pro-bowl year. He is going to be missed.
