Oakland Raiders still not getting Marshawn Lynch the ball enough

Marshawn Lynch clearly still has it. He still has great vision, burst, elusiveness and the ability to run over linebackers and defensive lineman. But he really hasn’t had a chance to show it much as he carried the ball just ten times a game over the first half of the season.

He shares carries with 2016 fifth-round pick DeAndre Washington and former undrafted free agent Jalen Richard. Washington and Richard have their respective roles out in space but they are made for spot duty.

Last season with Latavius Murray as the lead back, the Raiders were No.
