Something upsetting about next season...no running game

Recommended Posts

Running game is as putrid as the passing game.First off (not to mention any names), having a player that can never play and kill our cap with a ridiculous contract is maddening.To be handcuffed with this crap with no way out for another season or three sucks. Every team in our division next year will be more competitive and we need all the help we can get on offense. Our running game sucks..13 for 33 yesterday (Williams is about done) and the oline needs help big time....but 33 yards? Something has to change or Cam wont make it a full season (he is the whole running game) If there is more bike riding while we cant gain one yard I will puke. You can add fixing the running game to the list of needs.

Deangelo and his 2 yards an a cloud of dust hamper us more than Stewart.

 

We pay him so much money we feel obligated to give him carries. I would rather him run for 4-5 yards on every play than 1-2 yards and the occasional big run.

 

After his typical 1st down runs we are left 2nd and Long...like 2nd and 8/9.. Then if we go back to him like we did on the first drive of the second half we get 3rd and 7.

Stew's contract is worse and he can't get on the field.

 

Exactly how does DWill hamper us more than Stewart?

    • I will say, I'm not a Bryce hater.  I have seen definite improvement in his play the past few weeks.  Hopefully he builds on it and becomes an elite qb.  In the back of my mind though there is a little voice that says, maybe this is mostly Canales and if he can do this with a player as limited physically as Bryce, what could he do with a young qb who doesn't have as many limitations.    That said, it is probably actually a combination of everything and you've got to give credit to Bryce for coming back from the benching looking the best he ever has. 
    • Yeah that is highly accurate. I'm sure he did something decent but almost everywhere you look it was bad. I'm on board with judging Morgan for what happens under his authority, when it is his rep on the line with these decisions. They made the right decision on Burns this year, and Burns pushed them to it. For 5 mil less per season we might still have him, so I appreciate Burns for going the extra mile with the greed.
    • I do think it's best not to get excited - as you highlight, we've seen great games here and there from otherwise mediocre QBs. But, it's also important to remember the context. That was one of CMC's many combined 100+ yard games for us (close to 150 with 2 total TDs if I recall). While a lot of us acknowledge TB was a decent veteran but not the answer, the point was he WAS a veteran and by the end of that season we knew his ceiling. The hope with Bryce is he continues to grow. Worth taking a look at how different the passing charts are, too... All but 8 throws basically within 5 yards of the LoS. 8 throws beyond 10 yards, and with 49 attempts!   vs Only 4 of BY's throws were behind the LoS, Nearly half his passes were beyond 10 yards. Just a very different depth of target selection.  Bryce was threatening all over the field. Fwiw, Bryce's TD % this year is pretty close to Teddy's that year - but that's including the two terrible games he started. Over the last 4 games, he's above it, so let's see if he can keep that up.
