I reluctantly drafted him in my fantasy league as the best player available at the time, and his three TDs last night as my No. 2 back was nice.  But I don't have a boner for the guy like a lot of folks on this thread.

He almost single handedly beat the team last year.  With this Charmin-soft, milquetoast team this year, a few more like him on the roster would make most quite gruntled.

Skat's performance against us last year is one of the best individual performances I have seen in college football. Dude leaves it all on the field, and scrapped his way up to FBS from Sacramento State. Crazy to think that in the era of 7th graders being scouted and offered, eight-figure NIL deals, and megaconferences, you can still have Rudy-type stories where a dude is just too persistent to be denied. Now he's producing in the NFL. How can you not love that?

It was his play in the 4th quarter. He did jack shit before that. The 42 yard toss was the most amazing thing he did.

I like watching him play. Glad we made him vomit and sent him home last year

I love watching him play.  I like an RB that. wants punishes defenders for taking him on.  He’ll figure out some preservation techniques.  He can watch some king Henry film.    Reminds me of Marion Barber.

He has an iq of 65. He’s not gonna figure anything out. He’s short as shit and not fast. He’s not gonna get down and dodge hits, because then he’s just another white guy that is running the ball in quicksand.

CTE isn't a byproduct of a few, highlight-esq hits.  It's years and years of cumulative damage over time.  It's the linemen that haven't the highest cases.  Every play they are smashing into one another.  Over and over.  Those are your highest risk guys. 

He's a poor-man's M. Lynch, who doesn't seem to have any lingering effects from football/CTE

Like growing up running into telephone poles? He's an absolute MONSTER, and I mean that in the best way for a tough running back, but homeboy is playing like there's no tomorrow.

Good running back...but he registers pretty high on the douche scale. Even in the playoff game last year. All that mugging and shit in front of the camera on the sidelines...

When he wasn’t fighting his teammates, twitching his head or puking.

Yep.

And like Marion Barber III, I doubt that he makes it to 40.

I fully believe there are some people that are just born to live fast and burn out quickly. It's not a tragedy when they do it, because there was no other way they could live this life. They weren't going to be able to go sit in an office for 10+ hours a day. They don't have the introspection or calm wit to find a more peaceful path that fulfills them. 

In Yungian terms they are almost all shadow. But not in the normal sense of a repressed shadow consuming them from within and projecting outwards. They were born with very little, if any, ability to integrate the shadow. They're just born into this life with one path of destruction, and when they can channel it onto the football field, boxing ring, battlefield, etc they start to shine.

Exactly. He’s running with the gods right now. He’s been like this since he was a kiddo. His parents were probably relieved he made it thru the toddler running with scissors phase. He’s a badass. We all know the consequences of this. He’s not changing his style.
