Work horse 10-15 touches a game : Dillon Johnson is getting healthy, you can see his vision and cutting ability. Like Gregg Lewis if you need 4 he will get you 4, if you need 50 he will get you 4.
Home run threat to spell Johnson 5-10: Tybo. Guy looks legit.
Receiving threat isolated against a linebacker, draw plays 5-10 touches : Nixon has the skill level mixed in with Johnson at receiver is difficult to defend
Goal Line short yardage: No pass protection Richard Newton

I’ll take Nixon/Tybo at 1/2 and Johnson as 3rd down back until he’s fully healthy. Time to let Newton go man.

If Dick can't pass protect he's useless because the defense knows it's a run.

I’m pretty sure Johnson starting against MSU means he’s healthy. His rhythm is returning from getting reps. Remember this guy was out spring and fall practice.biak1 said:I’ll take Nixon/Tybo at 1/2 and Johnson as 3rd down back until he’s fully healthy. Time to let Newton go man.

Sometimes you know it’s a run on the goal line and still can’t stop it. Washington needs that threat to be what they can be. You need a dive threat, that’s DickBleachedAnusDawg said:If Dick can't pass protect he's useless because the defense knows it's a run.

This feels a bit like the argument in 2016 in favor of subbing out Gaskin for Lavon Coleman just because Coleman was the bigger back. Gaskin was a better RB in every aspect and could find the gaps to score despite being smaller.NeGgaPlEaSe said:

I am not so sure Newton is as good as he looked yesterday. Seemed like MSUs defence was getting abused by Penix all day so when they saw a Dick they just werent interested anymore

No offense to your assessment, but I agree with Greg Lewis who actually was the first one to tell us how good Gaskin truly wasbiak1 said:

Ngata sign of Ngata

He was dinged up last game I thought. I’d be more worried about Sam Adams not seeing the field again on offense.PostGameOrangeSlices said:Ngata sign of Ngata

Germie is a better RB than Dick.
