That said, he's not an RB1... ideally he'll be a complimentary RB2 to share the load with a 'full time' RB1. Zack Moss is not that guy, and so to my mind we ideally do some shopping for an answer at RB in the offseason.
But Chase Brown is definitely one of the (limited) positives to this season.
I would have totally agreed with you up to a few games ago but he's blocking well, running hard and very well with lots of carries so he's becoming durable and he's an integral part of the passing game.Went from a 1-2 down back to a guy you can keep on the field.
With that said, they absolutely do need another bigger back that can get carries, carries in the short game that can fall forward more and get those extra 1-2 yards (If ZT would ever commit to the running game) and to make sure Chase can maintain his production. Every team but this one uses 2-3 backs with varying skills.
