After the Moss injury Chase Brown was playing 80%+ of the snaps and was getting nearly all the RB touches. He probably won't survive a full season at those numbers.

but his touches still were below average for a main back, so it is not about snaps but more touches with snaps

I don't feel like 20-23 touches per game is too much for Chase Brown, so long as 3-5 of those touches are pass receptions. I get that he carried the rock 30+ times/game at Illinois, but the NFL is different. I'd like to see him stay fresh and healthy, able to still break one every once and again.

It the interior running game is particularly strong, they could always re-sign Hubert and have another decent ypc back to tandem with Brown for not a lot of $$.

Probably

But our line couldn’t open holes so we had to pass a lot

And Burrow was just a God all season.

smart teams adapt to their personnel. Look at the Chiefs and Bills. You should take people like Goodberry with a grain of salt when he starts clamoring for more passing. I think its time you upgrade the guard spot, and give Brown and Herbert(hopefully they re-sign him) a little more duties in the offense

Of all your great ideas, having a punter re-signed to play RB is probably not the best. But hey, it could work.

Slow day, Sunset.

Hubert, Herbert, meh it's all the same name after a couple of strong doubles..

Completely can relate.
