Banyard has nice speed, but Tate is a more bruising type runner. Asiata with better skills, basically.

Can't help but wonder what the team would have looked like with #28 in the backfield all season.

While I agree that "bruising type runner" is a thing that exists, I feel like its also used an excuse for some guys who are physical but never amount to more than 3ypc. Like Asiata.

Tate's career average is 4.4 yds. Asiata averages 3.5 for his career.

This is where we have typically crumbled and allowed a score before the half. Have we changed?
