This is now back-to-back games where Kyren Williams has rushed for over 100 yards on the ground. Have to give credit to the offensive line and the blocking as a whole for creating holes to run through as of late.
Like Jack Coan, Kyren Williams and the offensive line are really playing their best football in 2021 right now.
