Bijan has 103 carries to Tyler's 116.

Bijan is 22nd in rushing attempts, and is 41st in redzone rushing attempts (seriously what the actual fuck).

It is absolutely criminal his usage. Even if he was a 7th round pick, with that production, I would expect him to be RB1, but the EIGHTH pick to be used like this is shocking.

I cannot comprehend what Arthur Smith thinks is best for the team, when our 3 best offensive skill positions are basically just used as decoys.

Any Falcons fan could tell you that Kyle Pitts would be 1st team all pro on most teams, the man catches literally anything and is always open, but nah, Jonnu Smith is our guy.

Maybe once they realize ridder wasn't it or at least isnt it this year, they decided to protect their young assets, like Bijan and Pitts. Division might suck but this falcons team is not ready. They certainly have some excellent pieces...

I dont know if it's all that ethical to essentially throw by underutilizing your young talent, but if I was falcons leadership I certainly wouldn't mind considering next year. Esp your young stud RB. Save them carries for the future and keep him healthy as hell. Especially when you have another RB who performed ok last yr. I get algeier ain't blowing anyone's mind this yr but it's not just about his skill, it's the team around him as well. Why put Bijan thru that
