Chris Thompson with 114 yards in playoff loss

[nole96]

1 rush for 25 yards and 8 catches for 89 yards, mostly in garbage time. He had the Redskin's two biggest plays of the day- a 25 yard run and a 38 yard catch.

Hopefully he gets a little more playing time next year.

Hopefully he's traded to a team worth a crap.

He would have had a 1,000-yard season if not for that knee injury. Stud.

Another great ambassador for our Seminoles. He's perseverance personified.

Use him more

Strange stat- He's one of the very few RBs in the league to have more career catches than rush attempts. Not sure why he doesn't get more carries. He's a career 6.0 ypc guy. That's not including today's 25.0 ypc.

Tough loss. I'm glad to see Chris playing for my Skins! He's a great example of determination and perseverance!!! Here's to next year! As always..... Go Noles & Skins!!!

Crazy that they did not (meaningfully) involve him in the game plan earlier. Probably would not have mattered. Packers were the better team.

Use him more

The Skins certainly should have given him some meaningful at-bats earlier in the game yesterday. That said, 25 is not built to be a feature back in the NFL. But I agree he deserves more situational opportunities. He also deserves a team with a better QB. Watching Kirk Cousins take a sack on the final possession -- instead of at least throwing it up for grabs -- says all you need to know about him.

My thoughts exactly. He wasn't ready yesterday.

If he was on the patriots he'd be all pro

If a guy goes for 25 on his first carry I'd be inclined to give him a second carry... But hey what do I know?

That was my thinking as well.
