There is nothing wrong with Harris, but a big problem with how and how much we use him. He best let loose to the outside not forced up the middle where every single defensive player knows you run the ball. Maybe only Messam might work for that kind of game plan.
July 27, 20168 yr comment_211492 Harris is a pretty good cutback runner.....all the more reason not to just slam him up into the A gaps, with a OL that can't drive block......

Harris has been fantastic this year when used properly... even when not used properly, he has found ways to get some yards...

The problem isnt with harris. How durp does one have to be to see a rb getting hit in the back field every other play to say hey that rb isnt good enough?
July 27, 20168 yr comment_211512 Actually, Harris can get some yards after contact. The bad news, is where most of the contact takes place.....
July 27, 20168 yr comment_211524 Wally is cheap and probably figured he could get an american rb in for cheaper so why not change the ratio. Harris is a good player and you can see it when he gets the ball. He fights for yards and can get more after contact, but no back really excels when he's constantly having to make people miss in the backfield.
July 27, 20168 yr comment_211526 Wally may be cheap, but he did make Harris a very good offer. We basically matched it and Harris came home. Harris is giving it everything he's got. He's breaking tackles and making people miss. The problem is, he's having to do that in the backfield too often.
July 27, 20168 yr Author comment_211533 Wally wanted to change Harris into more of a blocking/utility back. Harris still thinks he can be an all-star so he left. And now he's a glorified blocking back in Winnipeg... go figure.

And now he's a glorified blocking back in Winnipeg... go figure. say what? harris is an excellent blocking back and probably has the best tool kit of any back in the league that, his mixed ability to run and pass catching out of the back field. Gotta stop making stuff up and claiming it as fact.
