He looked like the better runner, getting many more yards each opportunity. He definitely looked more spry. Fournette was constantly getting stuffed and couldn't break off good runs. He wasn't doing too well with his screen passes either. Edited November 3, 2020 by jpark211 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He wasn't doing too well with his screen passes either. The problem for Rojo is that he makes too many mistakes. Not just talking about the fumble tonight, but those drive-killing drops in the passing game. Fournette is running at about the same level as him, but makes fewer mistakes. That's why he's overtaking Rojo. Rojo does look more spry than Fournette, but he has lost Arian's trust. It will take poor performances and/or boneheaded plays by Fournette for this to return to a Rojo backfield. I wouldn't count on it. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asian Sensation 2,074 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Looks like he’s still a Jag. 1 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jdizzle 189 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Fournette is the rb to own moving forward. Brady trusts him more with pass blocking and doesn't fumble 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brosephd 1,330 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 rojo only had 1 fumble this year so far? or in general its always been an issue. he’s caught like 22/31 which is like 70% of passes whereas fournettes at 16/21 76%. will be interesting to see who starts SNF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rotochat 47 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Rojo can be change of pace for 4net. May keep 4net healthy for the remaining stretch at least 😊 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sSektor 2,272 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Glad he seemed to have gotten the lead role but he has like zero lateral agility left and can barely even break tackles anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Noticed this as well. If I didn’t know any better I would have thought he’s a washed up 32 year old that’s had a couple ACL surgeries over his career. Bruh is only 25. Here he is at 17...... allegedly. 2 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well, when you're getting gang tackled in the backfield, does that even matter? Fournette averaged 3.5 ypc last night. Rojo was at 3.2 ypc. Neither had much room to run.

SundayGravy 86 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 He’s not good. This team is winning despite Bruce’s games with the backfield. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blats 34 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Doesn’t this weeks matchup suit 4net better? Considering this could be a shootout with lots of passing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yea I gotta say that although Fournette looked very pedestrian last night I didn't see his o line giving him much room to run. Seemed like they were getting blown off the ball and for whatever reason Arians decided that half back dives were the only running plays worth calling. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This guy plays cuz they paid him 2.5 mil, thats it. If BA doesn't stop jerking around, hes going to mess his team up. Tell me rojo wasnt miles better as the lead back? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He is shifty and gets tough yards. Kimbo slice goes down at the first contact. Edited November 3, 2020 by tonycpsu Removed Cool Story Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They have the GOAT throwing balls, and they have 3 all pro WRs. They just need a guy who doesn't fumble the ball and can be there as a safety check down for Brady, and that's Fournette.

TLBDS 64 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Is anyone actually excited about "Fournette SZN"?? Dude could barely crack 10pts (PPR) on TWENTY-ONE touches yesterday - against an awful defense. And he looked awful doing it. Rojo's fumble might end up being bad news for everyone involved as the Fournette crew now thinks he has a chance of being relevant, and might even play him next week(s).
