Hey KHY
I was one of those 'non-believers',mostly due to Alex Smith..IMO, Smith is one of the leading MVP candidates, he has his team at
6-0 which is very impressive being that he was a newly acquired player in the offseason..he has performed extremely well
while I'm one of those who didn't think Charles would surpass 10TD, on the flip side, you can't possible think he's going to continue at this rate and finish with 19 TDs ,can you? I mean,they've beaten the Jags, Oakland, Giants, Eagles, Cowboys, Titans.not exactly all-world team defenses..and while the schedule looks fairly easy from here on out, someone along the way is going to decipher and crack the code,and beat the Chiefs..I'll give you maybe 13-15 TD..but his ypc avg is what is most alarming now..1.6 yards less per rush..
he has 2 fewer rushing Tds than Moreno ( 5 vs. 7), and avg's 1/2 yard less than him ( 4.2 vs. 4.7)..19 more fantasy pts, and he has 13 more recs, 111 more rec yards..but for the consensus top 10 pick he was in this year's fantasy drafts, I think he has been somewhat of a disappointment..
Moreno is only a few pts behind him, and is doing as much or more,with less, than Charles is..so Charles isn't really living up to his ADP ranking..
but he is scoring fantasy pts, just not scoring nearly as many as people would've hoped..
