    I don't have a big opinion on Ahmed. He is what he is. I like the homerun potential that he brings, though (although it seems like he's been caught from behind a few times for supposedly being a burner).

    That said, a lot of people sell McGrew short on what he brings. The guy always moves forward and moves the chains. Right now Ahmed, Newton, and McGrew are near-even on carries, although with Ahmed missing the last game. If anything, we learned from the BYU game that Ahmed is not as valuable as people make him out to be.

    BTP's love affair with Salvon is awesome

    I love talent and would love to see Ahmed be great but you are who you are

    And if by "who you are" means "I like to run into my blockers and go down the second someone touches me", then NAILED IT!

    Sorry BTP. You are still WRONG!!!

    Why do you hate talented people does it make you feel uncomfortable?

    Ahmed has been good. If he’s not an every down back or the others are better, that’s fine, but he’s useful and should have a role.

    Ahmed has been ok. I like the Newton/Mcgrew combination better because I feel more confident the play will go for decent positive yards and I like angry running but its whatever.

    I think the frustration of Ahmed has always been more about feeling that the coaches should be getting more out of Ahmed by using him differently. Its amplified by the fact that both Newton and Mcgrew have shown to be more than competent as fill ins for how the staff has traditionally chosen to use Ahmed and the WRs have not been great.
    I think the frustration has been that people thought he'd be a better running back.

    No one is saying Ahmed is bad. His tool set is just not an every down RB, he needs space. He runs into his own lineman and other defenders way too much and just falls over if running between the tackles, this isn't debatable.

    Thank you.
