Input: Consider Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Jordan Howard ( ? Jordan Howard  followed up  his  1 313-yard rookie season with 1 122 yards.  He  had an outside shot at the NFL’s rushing title early in December but faded in the final three games with only 90 yards on 41 carries.  He  became the first back in franchise history to begin  his  career with consecutive 1 000-yard seasons and amassed 2 000 career rushing yards faster than any back in club history  getting there in 24 games. The great Walter Payton needed 26 games.
Roll call: Jordan Howard (signed through 2019)  Tarik Cohen (signed through 2020)  Benny Cunningham (unrestricted free agent)  Taquan Mizzell (signed through 2019)  FB Michael Burton (signed through 2018).
2018 salary-cap figures:  Howard  $692 005  Cohen $713 914  Mizzell $555 000  Burton $705 000.
2017 season review:  Howard  had five 100-yard games and has never been better than  he  was during the 27-24 overtime victory against the Ravens in Baltimore on Oct. 15.  He  carried a career-high 36 times for 167 yards and put the Bears in position for the game-winning field goal.  Howard  likely would have been more effective through the season  but the coaching staff seemed conflicted as to what it wanted to achieve on certain weeks.  Howard  had four games in which  he  received 10 carries or fewer and only six games in which  he  had 20 or more carries. The Bears realized that  Howard  needed a solid workload throughout a game to really get  him  lathered up  but then that approach failed to account for Cohen. Mixing it all together was a struggle because at the end of the season the Bears ran only 934 offensive plays — 31st in the league. To put that in perspective  they were about 70 snaps behind teams that ranked in the middle of the pack  so a little more than four per game. Not that big of a deal over the course of the season  but 25 more handoffs to  Howard  could have meant another 100-plus yards  right?
 Howard  now has 12 career 100-yard games  which ties  him  with the Cowboys’ ’ Ezekiel Elliott for the most over the last two seasons. It also puts  Howard  seventh in franchise history behind Payton 77  Matt Forte 24  Gale Sayers 20  Neal Anderson 14  Rick Casares 13 and Thomas Jones 13. The Bears are only 5-7 in games in which  Howard  tops 100 yards  but when you consider their record when  he ’s held under 100 is 8-24  you see the value.
The biggest issue for  Howard  is it’s hard to call  him  a complete back.  He ’s never going to be Forte  who set the NFL record for receptions in a season by a back with 102 in 2014. But  Howard  would be much more dangerous if  he  was a more consistent threat as a receiver.  He  caught only 23 passes for 125 yards (six fewer receptions and 173 fewer yards than  he  produced as a rookie). Nine running backs topped 1 000 rushing yards this season and every one had more receptions than  Howard ’s 23. In fact  the average was 58. (Chiefs rookie running back Kareem Hunt had 53). Over the last five seasons there have been 53 1 000-yard seasons in the NFL. Only six of those 53 produced fewer catches than  Howard ’s 23 this year:
The outlier on this list is Gurley. He has had 107 receptions in the two seasons since that low output as a rookie.  Howard ’s inability to make more plays in the passing game — and  he  was tied for ninth in the league with five dropped passes (and  he  was targeted only 32 times) — is holding his game back. He’s been terrific running the ball and just might be poised for greater things under new coach Matt Nagy (more on that in a little bit)  but he has been deficient in the passing game.

Output: Positive


Input: Consider Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Warren Buffett ? Warren Buffett  and Bill Gates have both founded highly profitable companies  so it's safe to say that  they 've made quite a few smart business decisions. In a 1998 panel discussion with students at the University of Washington's business school  the two billionaires pinpointed the best business decisions they ever made.
 Buffett  said  his  best business decision was simply starting a career in investing because  he  enjoys what  he  does. Luckily  said  Buffett   this has worked out well for  him .
"You'll see plenty of times when you get chances to do things that just shout at you "  he  said. "When that happens  you have to take a big swing."
Alluding to  his  own experiences as an investor   Buffett  said that when these opportunities arise  you must act quickly. There's no time to be "reading a book on the theory of diversification "  he  said.

Output: Neutral


Input: Consider Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Yuriko Koike ?

TOKYO (Reuters) -  Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike  whose new party is challenging Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abeâs ruling bloc in the Oct. 22 national election   said  she  would â100 percentâ not run in the poll  the latest twist in a drama giving voters whiplash.
Speculation has persisted that  Koike   a former LDP member and defence minister  would resign to run for a seat in parliament needed to make a bid for the premiership.
âI have been saying I will not run for the election from the beginning â  Koike  said in an interview with the Yomiuri newspaper reported on Tuesday.
If  Koike  does not personally contest this election  then analysts believe  she  would hope  her  party positions itself to win the next national poll  and that  she  gains a voter boost from the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
But  Koike âs new âParty of Hope - launched just last week as a âreformist  conservativeâ alternative to Abeâs equally conservative LDP - has clouded the outlook amid signs voters are disillusioned with Abe after nearly five years in power.
 Koike âs dilemma was whether to run for a seat now and face a backlash from voters for quitting as governor little more than a year since she defied the LDP to run successfully for the post  or risk letting a shot at the top job slip through her fingers.
Some analysts saw her decision not to seek a seat now as a sign  Koike  thinks her partyâs momentum was fading.
 Koike  has been getting negative media coverage for saying she would âexcludeâ candidates who do not agree with her partyâs policies - a stance seen as barring liberal members of the failed main opposition Democratic Party from joining.
Leaders of the Democratic Party - a fractious mix of conservatives and liberals - decided last week it would not run candidates of its own but let members run from  Koike âs party.
 Koike âs comment was applauded by some as an effort to ensure policy consistency but by others as a dictatorial manoeuvre.
 Koike âs party is insisting those who want to run on its ticket sign a policy pledge  including revising the pacifist constitution and exercising the right of collective self-defence  or militarily aiding allies under attack-defence  a document seen by Reuters showed.
â Koike  is tough  sheâs resilient and she can tap into the fact that Abeâs negative ratings are pretty high and a lot of people out there are unhappy with him â Kingston said.
