You're not wrong.
But I saw two run with Hunt yesterday that were open to be broken for 20+ yards and I think he got like 8 and 11 on them. Another that looked like it had a chance that he got 4 on.
Now maybe Pacheco's enough better than Hunt that he can hit one of those, but he doesn't always SEE them either.
The interior run blocking has been good enough this season that I do think Barkley would've busted a handful of those long runs here that Hunt just doesn't have the gear (or Pacheco the vision) to manage.
Barkley is a pretty spectacular player, fellas. I mean it's not like it was 15 years ago the guy went #2 overall. RBs were already being phased out in 2018.
He's just a bit of a different beast.
