Mason I think fits our system better than Christian.

at least it seems like he finds the better gap to run and more often gets positive yards.

don't get me wrong, I love CMC and am glad we have him but mason should get a few of those goal line Carrie's as well as a fair share and I beliebhe will help us out.

love his running style. Really wish he would have kept #41. Reminded me of Kamara

I don't really think Mason fits the whole system better, it's more situation based. Mason imo should 100% be getting the carries in between the tackles with CMC the 3rd down and pass set looks.

Jordan Mason looks like he is a missed tackle away from breaking big runs.
Kid looks good but is it just me or does he also seems to have better blocking than CMC. Like their is an actual hole to run through for Mason most of the time. Maybe he just has better run plays called or something.

Mason is a power back with decent speed.
He can bust through different kinds of holes than CMC can.

He has Marshawn Lynch size and NFL defenses have gotten smaller and faster since Beast Mode
Shanny seems really reluctant to play him more. And I have yet to see why. Maybe because how much we gave to acquire CMC?

This. It's a situational thing, and Mason is probably also benefiting from coming in as a spell. Mason is probably a better runner inside the tackles, but CMC just opens up the offense much better. Aside from not overworking CMC, I wouldn't take him out in favor of Jordan Mason in most situations.

However... Jordan Mason should be the guy for 4 minute offense, or if we're determined to go full-on smashmouth and just RUN the ball down their throats.

Looks decent. Should get more touches to see if there's something there longer term.

He really had some nice runs for us and put us in a few short yardage situations that was very helpful to Purdy.
