Lets don’t even go there. Tolbert whiffs were laughable last year. 

Armah is going to be a beast. 

So true, Armah should also get involved in the passing game. He seems to have the quickness/power for shortyardge conversions

I would like to see him in front of CMC who can hit the hole a lot harder that Stewart.

In the first play, Stew has to slow up for the exchange.

Stewart and slow I will agree with that statement,  And his ball security is very suspect as well.  Covers at first contact and then lets it go and the ball is exposed.  I was worried on a couple of plays Monday night.

I luv Armah.

I don't see how we went so long without a true fullback the way we run the ball and how our O line can be at times. That extra blocker taking out a line backer or a DB with a straight line toward the RB is great. Gives us a extra step to make that big play to 6 not 3.

It was interesting to see Rey Maualuga playing lead blocker. Just go make contact. SEEMS so straight forward.

So I'm a bit out of the loop due to travel. I noticed we were using a FB against the Dolphins when did this start up? Falcons game?

He's been getting more and more snaps since they brought him up from the PS.  They have been using him at FB and TE.  The last 2 games he has been getting a lot more reps and it's paying dividends. Its great to have a true FB again.

Don’t think he’s had any snaps at TE the past two games. Strictly in the backfield as a FB.

Yep Falcons game was the first game where he was actually involved in the game plan and playing a considerable amount of snaps. Before then he had a handful here or there but not much. He’s coming into his own as a blocker; hopefully we can get him involved with the ball in his hands too. He’s been involved in special teams since he’s been on the active roster.

Didn't he get a penalty at TE even tho it shouldn't have been a dam flag the one time I remember him lined up as a TE.

What ever they are doing that's igniting the running game (Cam running again is a big part of it), they need to keep it going. Armah is a nice piece to add to it.

Replacing KB with speed has opened things up and created space to run the ball. 

[Yaboychris28]

Our run game has came a long when I think back to that  Philly game

[tiger7_88]

I still don't understand why KB had to be traded to "replace him with speed".

Are the coaches gutless and unable to make difficult decisions?
