I'm trying to confirm this narrative of him going down easily with initial contact by looking at vids of him.

I just don't see it. Sometimes he makes the first guy miss or runout of the arm tackle attempt. He gets tackled at the end of the run like most RB.

Makes me wonder how this narrative came about.

Amazing how these narratives start. Just look at the Jimmy G ones. There is the can he stay healthy. Does he have an INT problem.

McKinnon does go down easy for how much weight he moves in the weight room. If you go back and watch the vikings games it's easy to see.

Jimmy gs style is going to cause a lot of picks if Shannahan doesn't coach and scheme properly. He's not going to backdown throwing it into tight windows and that can cause picks if the receivers aren't open.

That's more of a Shannahan problem than jimmy problem though.

People need to move on from the typical RB mentality. This is Jet's time.

People still hating on McKinnon because they saw him for a few carries first preseason game when our oline couldn't block an old man if they wanted to that day??

I'm not holding my breath game one. If there is one team in this league that can contain his athleticism it's Minny...add to that the insider information they already have on him will give them an even bigger advantage game planning him.
