Also, I suspect but can't confirm, that he also sucks at route running. Maybe someone else can enlighten us on that aspect of his game?
Point taken, but it's not like I haven't watched every Colts snap for 20+ years. Eyeball test certainly factors in for me. Also, I agree stats can mislead, but rushing yards aren't exactly the same as interceptions or sacks which can flat out lie.

He's no Edge in pass pro, for sure. And his hands aren't very good. He's got a near identical drop-rate to Saquon Barkley. And nobody gave a shit about that last year because he's an elite rusher.

That's about how I feel about JT to some degree.
