Remember last year? He started slow then too, and finished with 1,019 rushing yards, a team-record 69 catches, 1,456 scrimmage yards and 11 total touchdowns. That guy is still in there.

Brown's 1,000-yard season and 69 catches last year suggest current slump is scheme-driven.

Despite slow start this season, Brown earned rope based on last year's performance: 1,019 rushing yards, team-record 69 catches, 1,456 scrimmage yards and 11 total touchdowns. The source notes 'that guy is still in there' and suggests the current inefficiency may be more about blocking and scheme than talent decline.
