I contended Deangelo is the 3rd best RB on the team

I'm really not so sure about that at this point. fozzy has run through a few tackles this preseason that Williams could not have gone through.

Fozzy just isn't as fast. Deangelo still has the ability to break a game wide open by running away from everyone. You saw it vs. the Jets and Saints last year. Deangelo had over 1100 yards from scrimmage last year, that's not terrible. But he faded late in the year which left a bad taste in everyone's mouths. I'd contend injuries to the line contributed.

We got what we got. Line was healthy against KC and that was a our "real" preseason game.

Williams needs to be an actual backup to 28.

I agree Stewart should start

[punkpanther]

I think the staff has more confidence in Tolbert than any other back on the roster . He has had 3 carries this pre season in 3 games . it's almost like they are saving him for when it counts...hmmmm.

I wouldn't say that D Will is the 3rd best RB on the team, in fact, I won't, he's either 1 or 2. D Will is our homerun threat. Stew and Tolbert (our FB) is better between the tackles. They need to be used to their advantage to maximize their production.

When was his last home run?

Play design.

Plus, I think people assume Williams is more explosive than he really is at this point

Again, we get back to play design. Which is Shula's problem. But, I'm not laying that all at his feet. Both Shula and DWill can go.

31 y/o RB + a scheme deadset on running through an OL with no push = what we see now from DWill.

 

He still could be one of the the most talented RBs in the game. But for what we do here, he just does not have the leverage over Stew and Tol.

SF, Sea, and Car all ran a lot of the same basic poo last year. It isn't sexy. Boring isn't always bad but you need the right bodies for it.

Why haven't we used Tolbert much this preseason?

at 31 he isn't going to be one of the most talented in the game.

Take him out of our offense....at 31 he isn't one do the most physically talented at this point.

SF and Seattle both disguise what they're doing really well, with lots of motions and coverage moves, SF more so. Also, they have Frank Gore and Marshawn Lynch, which allows them to run ore efficiently.

I was wondering this. Maybe saving him?

I don't have notes in front of me and I define home run, by runs of 20 yards or more. It doesn't look promising right now, but D Will has been our horse while Stew has always been on the mend. D Will has been that production in the backfield, less fumbles and so forth. Can it be better, yes. But I haven't seen us do anything on the offensive line to cater to D Will's strengths. Yes Stew can gain more yards under the current oline and maybe so can Fozzy. But hard nose running, pounding gets you riding the bike on the sideline.

The wildcat with Deangelo needs to be put down immediately.

They have RBs more comparable to a healthy 28
