[QUOTE="warhawk, post: 173691, member: 431"] Read the previous posts. There's explanation there as to WHY we have yet to commit to the run. A) To run the ball consistantly you have to COMMIT to a TWO BACKFIELD formation on a regular basis. B) If you are going to make the committment to (A) above you better know your RB's can carry the load with a full grasp of the playbook to make that type of offense productive. MM saw where he could put three and four receiver formations on the field and put the ball in Favres' hand and that would be far more productive than gambling on young running backs. The paradox for MM to this point is when he does want to bring in two backs everybody in the stadium knows we're probably going to run the football. Is it really that hard to figure out why then it doesn't work? What's he supposed to do now? Forego the current schemes that have gotten them to 4-0 and go with two backs and try that? He would go from being considered one of the best young football minds in the buisness to an idiot overnight. We will go to two backs and run the ball when SOMEBODY STOPS US from doing what we're doing to win football games right now. [/QUOTE]
