Well the one aspect in which I agree with you is Rob and Perine are both between the tackles guys, not homerun guys. But Perine is different, he is the only one of the bunch that can move a LB backwards in the hole. He can make a yard when there are none there. It's a perfect red zone solution, we have been so poor at punching it in on goal lines, finally now we can do it.
