I am 100% willing to consider that it's only a me issue, but I'm finding it really hard to wrap my head around why people are so excited about D'Andre Swift with the Chicago Bears. I mean, last season with the Philadelphia Eagles, he only had two performances inside the top 10 and only four performances inside the top 12. After Week 7, when he was the RB13, from Week 8 through Week 18, he was only the RB30 on the season.
Do you want to know some of the running backs that had more fantasy points than him from Week 8 on? What about Tony Pollard, Chuba Hubbard, Javonte Williams, and even Ezekiel Elliott? And now you're trying to tell me he's going from a team with one of the best, if not the best, offensive lines in all of football last year and some of the most dynamic playmakers in their offense to now an offense that is going to have a better offensive line but definitely not elite, a rookie quarterback, and some new weapons, and we're going to be excited that all of a sudden D'Andre Swift is going to go off and be a top-tier running back?
He'll be serviceable because he will be the starting running back, and he's going to get the volume. But the big issue is that there are just way too many D'Andre Swift truthers out there who really feel like this is finally the year, even though we've been hearing that for the past four seasons.
