  • RB situation

    Alright time to stop with the B Jack/Nance/Kuhn Experiment...they are not getting it done. What is out there? There are alot of retreds we could look at or at least BRING IN to light a fire here:

    FAs
    Jamal Lewis
    Edgerinn James
    Warrick Dunn
    Ahman Green
    MANY others

    Not saying these guys are going to come in and get 100 yard games but F maybe we could get a 3rd and 1!
    Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

    Did you see the penetration the Falcons DL was getting on those plays? The problem was not with the RB's. I'm not saying I'm satisfied with the current situation, but there's not much that can be done about it now. The Packers will have to try to do better with the guys they have.
    I can't run no more
    With that lawless crowd
    While the killers in high places
    Say their prayers out loud
    But they've summoned, they've summoned up
    A thundercloud
    They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

        Did anyone else notice Brandon Jackson on that one play when he lost 7 yards. He saw Lofton and decided that losing 7 yards was better than than getting hit hard and making a yard and maybe a first down. Is this guy serious??? He calls himself a running back?? Where the hell is Starks, he can't be wrose than Jackson. I miss Grant (and Finley).

              I agree with Joe. As soon as a GB running back touched the ball, there were two defenders in his face. There was no where to go, no cut back lanes.

              Only Barry Sanders could get out of those traps. And even then, he'd lose two or three yards for a few carries. Then he'd bust one for forty yards.

                +1. Nance had a good second effort on his one carry on that 3rd and 1. I would've liked to see him get another carry instead of the back 2 back sneaks.

                  Jamal Lewis? Really? You sure you don't want to add Sean Alexander to that list?

                  Old washed up RB's are just that - washed up. I don't think anyone knows why, but there is a wall there that they hit.

                      Apparently Nance suffered a concussion today. Maybe that's why they didn't give him more touches...

                            I'm not sure there's anything that can be done at this point... they don't have the personel; and M3 doesn't seem concerned enough to get creative with it - ala Belichick. I mean really, is Danny "I'm a just hitting puberty" Woodhead tougher, or a better runner than Brandon Jackson???

                            Attempting 50+ passes per game is all fun and games in Madden, or when you're playing Buffalo, but when you go up against a playoff calibur team for real - you'll get beat more often than not.

                              Agree we need to get Starks going some or get Kuhn going more often. Jackson just isn't getting it done.
