Please respond to the previous hot take, and then post your own hot take, that can be related or totally unrelated if you wish.
I'll start, obviously:
Barry Sanders lost as many games for the Detroit Lions as he won them. His constant negative runs on 1st and 2nd down made it difficult for the Lions to sustain drives throughout games, and he was a liability in short-yardage situations because he would rarely run for safe yardage even when he could. His big runs might have resulted in gaudy stats and Sportscenter clips, but they often did not help the Lions as much as consistent drive-to-drive yardage from the run game would have.
