Pop is a great player and very good athlete for where he was drafted, but he's always been a square peg in a round hole. Kareem coming back really exposed that because he's so good at all the little nuances elite RBs need to be good at. I don't know how long Pop has played RB, but it's like he never played RB until some point late in HS or College when someone was like "this guy is a hell of an athlete. We need to get him on the field. "Hey let's try RB" and he was fast and strong enough to make it work out ok. Whereas Kareem looks like he's a RBs son and has had every little nuance beat into his head for 15 years or so. The difference between the two with the little things RBs need to do is just astonishing.
Hell even the end of the Bills game when Pop gets that huge 3rd conversion that should've sealed the game...he goes OUT OF BOUNDS. Does anyone on this board think Kareem goes out of bounds there? HELL NO!
