Chud Has To Stop Ignoring The Runnning Game

[KendrickPanther]

No. We tried the run, It got us in 3rd and impossible over and over again. We had 1 rush for a first down and it was by a Wide Reciever. We only had Tolbert and Deangelo to run the ball. Reality is that things improved when we abandoned the run.

Last year wasn't the same way....it flat out works with Stewart and set up the bulk of our highlights from midseason on. That was a large factor in why we were the most effective rushing team in the NFL last year.

We weren't running a shotgun draw today. it looks comparable....but blocking assignments are different and the RB immediately gets the ball.

I didn't mean literally mean it was a draw. But its that same ol crap. Sometimes it's delayed. But either Way it's a bad way of tryIng to establish a run game. Whether it be dwill, stew, Tolbert or cam. Now I'm not saying it should be ripped out of the playbook. But jeez it dosent work but like once in a blue moon. And those times it was more of j stew being a beast than it was the play call.

I just don't like the shotgun run formation. It dosent set up well to me and seems wry ineffective at all times. Just my perspective. But who the fug am I, so it Dosent matter

It was on LaFell to reel it in. Cam still hit his mark.

Agreed. Splitting three defenders to the open wideout is NOT throwing into triple coverage. The ball hit lafell in the hands.

I would have agreed with running the ball more but the deficiencies between amini, kalil and hangman need to be sorted out.

No we tried to keep runing out of the shotgun. We should have used some power I's and strong and weak sets. The Bucs were getting stop on some plays as well but they used different sets and kept trying to run the ball.

That and the talent on the O-line is fuging poo.

[The Special One]

This happened last year as well, if you recall. We didn't run the ball vs Cards and Packers last year and started off 0-2. I could see us starting off 0-2 this season as well.

I don't think Chud is comfortable running this offense without Stewart. I can't blame him, Deangelo =/= Stewart.

[DeeJay]

The skins did work on the Saints* in the run and pass...

He has to bring it back next weekend.

I agree but he shouldn't ignore the run. Even though Dwill was gaining less then a yard each touch, he still needs the run plays to open up passing. You would think an OC would know that. He should have let Tolbert get a few carries since Dwill was getting shut down.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

We need to pound it hard of the gut. This side to side running crap does nothing. It just loses us yards everytime.

Get used to the Shotgun run formations, Cam's a Shotgun read-run style QB, even in the NFL. He personally asked for the Auburn style plays to be added to the playbook and they are there. A bulk of the playbook is shotgun spread offense/ pistol offense stuff from college, because that's what Cam's runs best.

When your O-line stinks... Give them some running plays to get them in gear... Chud put them in a bad situation again and again.

[Zod]

You would rather have 3 and outs all day long?

The run game was awful. Chud knew it, we knew it. Out only hope was throwing the ball.

I was calling for the power back, where's the human bowling ball? Use the man, Damn!
