It's not totally outrageous. Cornish is averaging ~80 yards a game or something like that. Certainly not an impossible task. I don't like making it public though. Rather just see that happen in the dressing room. Maybe Chamblin knows what it takes to fuel his players.

My worry is that they will be so focused on Cornish, succeed in stopping him, only to have Lewis catch pass after pass over the middle.

Actually, yes it kind of is.

I understand why he would say such a thing, but it usually never works out when a coach makes these kind of veiled threats.

Its as simple as one broken play and Cornish rips pp a 70 yd run, but only gets 60 on 12 other carries...then what? You have players literally worried about their jobs because they know the hammer is coming.

I actually expect a riders win, but if that happens even with JC running well, what sort of message would that send?

Since the calendar turned to August Cornish has rushed for

170
43
159
71
185
53

See a pattern?
