Sure Gio is better at catching and blocking (although I think Hill is solid in these categories), but we're talking about toting the rock.

Hill ain't getting it done, but neither was Gio, who was stuffed on a regular all year. People keep talking like Gio somehow looked better but the production hasn't reflected that at all. I'm not hating on Gio so much as using him to make a point. I just think the problem is (and has been for years) the oline. 

4 OC's, 3 RB coaches, a mountain of RBs, and we get the same mediocre results year after year. To me it's like blaming players for stinking in the playoffs under Marvin Lewis.

yeah, he is a better runner on film for sure, there's no run that jeremy can make that gio can't, it's not the same going the other way. 

you have an above average runner in gio and a below average runner in jeremy running behind a below average line. stats for both aren't going to look pretty because neither are transcendent talents, and jeremy barely edges out gio in ypc bc out that browns game.

i don't know what to say besides what i've already, gio looks much better running ball and finishing runs because he just is the better guy. you can just tell watching the games, nevertheless rewatching their runs on gamepass.
