Not sure if he was tentative, but the explosiveness and acceleration were surely lacking. Recall his first two seasons where it looked like he was pulling away from defenders without make much of an effort.

Since he didn't have corrective surgery, we'll have to see if he regains that very same form.

AK needs to get smarter and choose his acrobatic moves wisely. It's when he elevates off his feet he becomes prone to injury from vicious hits not to mention hard landings.

You are talking as if he is constantly getting injured. Every RB experiences injuries. It is all part of the job. Asking him to stop doing what makes him great doesn't make much sense.

Maybe so AG, but I hold my breath every-time he jumps over a defender. But your right this is what he does best.

He didn't have anything that needed surgery to correct, Smash.
