Eric Bieniemy: Kareem Hunt is “running his ass off”

Kareem Hunt’s stats through two games2017: 30 rushing attempts for 229 rushing yards (7.6 y/a) Youth Kendall Fuller Jersey , three rushing touchdowns, eight receptions, 126 receiving yards, two receiving touchdowns2018: 34 rushing attempts for 124 rushing yards (3.6 y/a), no rushing touchdowns, one reception, five receiving yards, one receiving touchdownOne thing that came off a little strange to me this offseason was how little respect the national media was giving to Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt.Hunt finished 2017 as the league’s rushing champion with 1,327 yards, but analysts/ex-players like Maurice Jones-Drew, for example, wouldn’t list him among the top five backs in the league. Jones-Drew ranked Hunt eighth heading into 2018.Jones-Drew has look more right than wrong through two games this season, but Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy thinks we should be looking deeper than the numbers.“Kareem had a big start for us last season, and that was huge,” Bieniemy said in a press conference on Thursday. “I know the numbers do not show—Kareem is probably playing better football than what he played last year because he understands exactly what we expect from him. He’s done a great job of learning our system, and normally, players have a tendency to pick it up a little bit better in their second season. He’s running his ass off. He’s playing hard; he’s playing fast. So, I know the numbers are not there, but the effort http://www.chiefsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-kareem-hunt-jersey , the energy and the detail is better than what it was at any time at this point last season.”Biemiemy specifically highlighted Hunt’s retention of the offensive system in his “sophomore” season.“In this offense, we do a lot, and we throw a lot at our rookies,” Bienimey added. “We’re asking them to know it as if they’ve been a nine or 10-year vet in this system. And we threw everything at him. Did he make a few mistakes? Yes. Did we make a big deal of it? No. We didn't care, because the only thing we want our guys to go out and do is have the confidence to go play fast. If you’re playing fast, you know what? It’s going to take care of itself. He’s not making the little mistakes that he made early in the season. So, one thing I’m looking at is, ‘How is he finishing? Does he have the proper read? Does he have the proper footwork?’ “He’s doing all the little things that we’re asking him to do, and if he continues, it’s going to take care of itself. The numbers will come.”In their first two games, the San Francisco 49ers have allowed 116 (Vikings) and 98 (Lions) rushing yards, and they get linebacker Reuben Foster back from suspension this week.It will be another challenge for Hunt, but regardless, Bieniemy believes the production is coming.Four things to watch in the Chiefs final preseason game The entire NFL will be playing tonight in the final preseason week, as everyone gets an even playing field with regard to time and scheduling from here on out. Roster cuts are a few days away, and whoever is on the field tonight is fighting for the lives. Whether or not the prospects of making your current team’s roster are great, you are getting one final chance to put something on tape for 31 other teams. The Chiefs have made moves in the past to add players at roster cuts, such as former safety Ron Parker. Here are the four things I’m looking for tonight:Lottery tickets on the bubbleDarrel Time.Denny Medley-USA TODAY SportsBrett Veach and company have done an excellent job of identifying undrafted free agents that provide value—players like Chase Litton, Ben Niemann Dee Ford Jersey , Darrel Williams, Arrion Springs and Ryan Hunter have made cut day that much more difficult. All these players listed are in serious consideration for a roster spot.Their performance tonight could be what seals their fate.What veterans have to play?Frank Zombo, a force to be reckoned with.Photo by Al Bello/Getty ImagesPlayers like Frank Zombo, Brian Witzmann, De’Anthony Thomas, Jehu Chesson could be playing for their roster spot on Thursday. None of those guys seem like locks to make the 53, and I would expect them all to play. This could also be an indication of how much the young players are pushing them for the opportunity.Who gets the early hook?The real Big Ben.Jason Getz-USA TODAY SportsOf all the players listed above (and more), who plays early and limited snaps? Players that get pulled early in the game could be the ones with a more solid chance of making the final roster. If it’s a veteran like Zombo, it could be that they know what he’s capable of and don’t need more, or he’s solidly on the roster. If a young player like Niemann gets a little work early, but don’t let him get too many reps, they’re probably trying to keep him healthy for week one.Litton vs. McGloinIt’s Lit.Denny Medley-USA TODAY SportsThere’s a palpable energy throughout the city. Everyone is on pins and needles wondering the same thing: who will win the Chiefs’ third-string quarterback job?Matt McGloin is a known commodity. He is what he is, and that’s a fringe, rosterable quarterback with a few starts under his belt. Then there’s Chase Litton—the young, exciting undrafted free agent who some thought could be day two, early day-three selection if he had stayed at Marshall another year.Litton has been the most impressive of the two, and Andy Reid likes to develop young quarterbacks. He has the potential to be the 2020 backup to Patrick Mahomes if he continues to grow. Litton can lock up the developmental quarterback role with a good day Thursday.
