Anybody remember that stat with Benson...100 yards often means a win...Hill gets limited because they give Gio half the playing time. Problem is, Gio stinks lately...If Hill can get healthy, they need to give Hill most of the carries. Hill has the ability to break a big run like Elliott, I've seen Hill do it. .....Hill and Eifert are our salvation if we can get them healthy and scoring touchdowns as we know they can. There TDs will set up AJ Green TDs and TDs for LaFell and Boyd. ...but we need Hill to get the ball a lot more and start putting up 100 yard games because Gio gets stuffed too easy. Hill doesn't need as much blocking as Gio. Hill can power for yards that Gio can't.
I used Dickerson because he holds the rookie rushing record that Elliot is on pace to break. As has been discussed in many threads, Hill looks nothing like that guy from his rookie season who was putting up 100 yard games. He didn't last year, and certainly does not this year.
