Alex Collins

Alex Collins has not been good this season.  He has averaged less than 4.0 ypc in every game this year.  More importantly, he has fumbled twice.  Last week's fumble was at the goal line.  Is he already in the doghouse or will it take another fumble?

just reading the middle 3 sentences would be enough to put him in my doghouse.....

 

 

It wouldn't surprise me if Buck Allen has a bigger role than Collins this week.  With Flacco on fire, the Ravens don't need the Alex Collins spark like they did last year.  At a minimum, Collins has probably lost any chance at goal line snaps.  Collins owners should strongly consider sitting him if they have another good option.

He went to the bench for a bit after that last fumble. But he's a much better runner than anything else on that roster. He may find the sidelines temporarily with future fumbles but Javorius Allen only has a 2.4 YPC right now and never reached 4.0 YPC in any season. I am surprised the rushing has been as poor as it has been.
