Hopefully Brian can crack that RB rotation.

He hasn't done too much with his opportunities over the years. He received carries last weekend because Devonta Freeman was ejected from the game. I'm hopeful he will have that 'breakout' but I see it as unlikely at this point.

He had the 60 yard run but ended that game with 8 total carries which is the most attempts he has had in any game over his 3 years in the league.LanderPoke wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 11:04 amWith the Bengals he had a couple great games.OrediggerPoke wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 9:32 amHe hasn't done too much with his opportunities over the years.

Ito Smith out with a concussion...Brian Hill takes his first carry 23 yards to the house for a TD!

Hill was always a workhorse. One of those rare backs you can keep feeding all game long, and he'll bowl defenders over after 30+ carries and 200+ yards.

Freeman was injured (and Ito Smith out for year) led to the opportunity for Hill. Atlanta grabbed a 2 score lead and sought to run clock. This is certainly what Hill is effective at because he usually falls forward. Hill wasn't flashy by any means and probably didn't turn any heads but he was instrumental in the Falcons win.

Sounds like they are running Brian into a brick wall. Falcons keep winning while he is playing. That's all that matters/
