Re: Khiry Robinson runs nasty

I don't understand how anyone could be excited about the "performance" Robinson put out in the last, meaningless drive of a game that was over 2 series before. Would my grandmother gotten the same level of props, because she's dead and I know she could have hit the holes just as fast.

Further, all you MI haters are transparently twofaced when presented the facts that neither Sproles nor PI could run in any game this season either.

Face it, it's an o-line and scheme problem, not an RB problem. For some reason that escapes Payton and his staff, nobody, NOBODY is fooled by our pitiful excuses for disguises of run plays.

Are these stats through 3 games of each season?

2011 and 12 are entire seasons. 2013 is just the first two games. It's pretty easy to get those first 3 games of the season but I need to at least pretend I'm working. I'll get those numbers later.

But do you have the stats on what personnel the defenses were playing? That's what most of us are missing out on. I'm willing to bet the first beer that Ingram faces more base defense with the front 7 made up of DL and LB's and also a safety in the box compared to the rest facing nickle and dime packages that employ more smaller DB's.

True.
He got some touches against a beaten second string D at the end of a blowout.

Let's give Payton a little credit; I think he knows our depth chart. Our top backs generated -6 yards rushing in the first half, but he still didn't put Robinson in. That tells me all I need to know.

Maybe he is the future, but right now he is serviceable as a 4th back and might have earned a jersey for next week.

PS- Cadet looked good on ST

Re: Khiry Robinson runs nasty

Not cool to talk bad about the dead.. I believe that Khiry just gives us hope kinda like a shiny new toy when your tired of the old one. Khiry may fall short like MI but I like others want togive him tthat chance.
