I think going forward they would use him less as a RB (in the regular season), but that is his game and what makes him great. Perhaps an average of 5 carries a game.
In the playoff, it is do or die, so around 10 carries a game is fine.
The one thing I really don't like about shanny, he will ride (insert player here) until they get hurt. Whether its Deebo or Mitchell. Mitchell is really a head scratcher to me. If mitchell gets hurt that really hurts our running game. No reason to not split time between him and wilson jr. WJ was running his a$$ off while mitchell was out too. Deebo is a stud and will do exactly whats asked of him. He'll play hurt and thats kinda scaary cause we really need deebo. Shanny should be choosing his spots to use him but unfortunaltey, we have to account for other positions that aren't performing right now.
I think Wilson is injured. They should use Sermon to spell Deebo and Mitchell. He is a bigger back and has fresh legs.
