I was pissed the commentator's didn't give JT props for that. That was one of the best blocks I've seen a back on this team make, ever.

Wish I could have been in the stadium to hear those pads pop too.

I too was pissed that they gave no mention of that block.

Yeah same thoughts here, didn't even see a replay of it from what i can remember.

I’ve been a little worried about JT’s development. Usually RB’s acclimate to the NFL fast and you know if they are good or not. But I tried to keep in mind this is an unusual year and covid has wrecked everything in some way. Last night helped alleviate that, although that Raiders defense was imploding.

I was too. However the last several games he seems to be seeing the holes better and being decisive. I think he will keep trending up so ling as the line keeps up its blocking.

The TD run was the Wisconsin Rb we saw on tape. They got him out in space and he found the gap and accelerated. Thats the guy they have been looking for

ESPN ticker said he reached 21.4mph on that run

I believe that AWS clocked Taylor at 21.9 last week and Hines at 21.4.

It showed the home run threat we wanted. But those holes are very rare in the NFL. It’s mostly the 5-10 yard grind. He does seem to be opening his vision up more. If we can eliminate a lot of the negative plays, which admittedly are not his fault if he is getting hit behind the line, then I think he will turn out ok.

Not sure about his big gainer, but they did have Rivers under center a few more times against the Raiders, and from all I've read, that is more what Taylor was used to at Wisconsin.

I wonder if that had any effect.
