I totally agree with this thread. I don't even think we nearly tried to run the ball as much as we could. I have 2 main concerns that I will discusse about.
My first concern is that I don't think its the Running Backs fault for not having a running game. When you guys watch the game this weekend look at the holes that are going to be there for the Running backs. Keep looking, because you probably won't find any.
My second is that on most 3&1's and short yard first downs I totally Expect a goal line run. All of sudden they come out in a shot gun formation. They sometimes get it, but I think it would make more sence to get your big guys out on the field and run it in most of the time.
Thats my two thoughts on the running game.
the coach does not have confidence in the runnig game, that is why he calls passing plays on 4th & 1, 3rd & 1 , 2nd & 4
JMO!
No doubt about it. I can't blame MM though. I hope the run game is being addressed in practice
i don't know, i think it may be time for a different approach to the running game.
I don't know, I think Pack93Z hit it perfectly. The guys block to high and get no leverage. Is it coaching? Is it the guys we have are just not very good? Is it the Backs?
My opinion is it is a little of all the above. Green was a great slippery back that could hit a hole and go. Jackson is not there yet. Wynn doesn't really fit the mold, and Morency is a walking injury. Morency had a nice average last year but a big portion was that was on 3rd down draws and such. He for the most part didn't even run in ZBS plays.
We are commited to it at this point and we don't have the horses to pull the carriage if we switch. I guess it's on Brett's arm and the Defense.
