Correct. Our line does not do a very good job of pushing or creating big holes. All the more reason to have a back in the backfield that is capable of exploiting whatever space is given to him.

I'm not saying it's fair but given this is the line we have and it's not going to change much throughout the season, I want backs back there that could at least be effective from time to time rather than not all. If you look at all our backs, ingram has been the one that consistently appears ineffective. At least sproles or PT can you give flashes. With ingram, there is barely a sparkle.

Once again, the point isn't to say he's not good at all. He's just not good for our line and our scheme for whatever reasons the football gods have deemed necessary.

Re: Khiry Robinson runs nasty

While I'm going to take Krob's performance with a grain of salt given the situation, I would like to see him at least get a few touches. I think ingram has problems with his vision and finding whatever holes are there. I think cadet can be good but I don't trust his ball security. This leaves me with just krob, pt and sproles.

One thing is for sure we need get drews passing attempts down. He's is taken way too many hits this year. If that means, taking a shot with krob than so be it but please do something to protect drew.

PS. Did anyone else notice how bad ben watson looked in pass protection?

Re: Khiry Robinson runs nasty

I am always curious as to what yardage "counts".. If we are up by 24 the ground yardage is garbage, if we are down by 24 the passing yardage is garbage.. Ifa team gets dominated by another team we say they got their azz whipped but dont * with they gave up at the 1/2, or the other team gave up that's why they threw up a 40 burger..

Performance only counts when the game is within 14? The inconsistency throws me off a bit.

It is not what yardage counts. It is what you make yardage count against.

Do you "count" the same a defense credited with 3 consecutive run stuffs for a loss during the victory formation vis a vis a defense that is credited with 3 consecutive run stuffs for a loss in a goal line stand?

In both cases, the stats say "3 consecutive run stuffs for a loss".

Either way you ended the drive, I would personally think the 3 run stuffs that were not near the GL more important as in my mind they were not within field goal range.

The 3 run stuffs near the GL did keep TDs off the board but the box was a lot smaller and the play was anticipated...

Is that where you were going?

You either are trolling me, or missed the "victory formation" part

Re: Khiry Robinson runs nasty

We stack reasons why Ingram isn't preforming well, or why Robinson ran well like pancakes at Denny's.

It is what it is, and we burn way to many brain cells trying to figure out what it isn't.

Re: Khiry Robinson runs nasty

Its a team, they got it done. Leave any QB in this league that much space to run and see what happens.

i am just tickled pink that it crossed his mind to run.... forward.
