That Tatum isn't our franchise back, he's not even a feature back. Look at our past RBs, Olandis Gary, Terrell Davis, Mike Anderson, Reuben Droughns, and even Clinton to a certain extent, they were all known as power backs... Well, Tatum doesn't have that power and thrust in him, he's the quick, explosive back. Sure, it's fun to watch him, but it's not fun to know that he's not the future.
I want to know who the future back is on this team, if there is one to this point. Tatum isn't a Denver type RB, he's a homerun hitter, what we need is a power back that has enough strength to pull a few guys and get 3 or 4 extra yards.
If you take out Tatum's big runs, he would end up with like a 3.3 yard average (Just estimating, didn't research it), and once Mike the Marine retires or leaves, he's going to be the guy that carries the ball 30-35 times a game? I don't think so.
I mean, I like Tatum, but I don't see him going anywhere far in this Denver backfield. Maybe we should try and look for a RB that would work in this system? I don't know, it's just a random thought, and I don't like what the future is looking like for this Denver running game.
The line is getting old, the system is slowly changing, we can't just throw anyone in there anymore and have them have success. Maybe we should start looking for the FRANCHISE RB of the Denver Broncos this offseason.
