Dobbins is not the answer to this run game. Or maybe he is and I don't appreciate how great he was because it's been so long it feels. Drake, Davis, and Hill were running into walls legitimately.
I said in the other thread, Nick Boyle is your only really piece to help the run game. And he may or may not be capable of playing this year.
I don't wanna say it but the key to getting the run game going may unfortunately have to be with using more Lamar designed runs. And not the predictable ass 3rd and 1 ones. Lamar is a transcendent talent and I don't want to run him into the ground because he's shown he can be a pretty elite pocket QB. But I'm sure if we used him more, it would probably really help the run game
Totally agree. But I don't know where it comes from. So just like how we say maybe use the pass to establish the run, maybe use Lamar to help establish it as well. What we saw today was pitifulour best running plays have been with lamar as a threat in the option game with the inverted veer type plays
had 2 i can remember this week - 1 was the 79 yd TD and the other was a give to Hill for like 12 yds around the edge
we've got to be able to find ways to run the ball that isnt just lamar

Is Eric Tomlinson available?
If Greg Roman can't get the running game going, than he's gone and he may be gone anyway.if there's one thing we should trust Greg Roman on, it's scheming up the running game
and if it's not about scheme, then pass the ball until they stop you... which likely means they have to drop guys out of the box

Because you can't be one dimensional and expect to win against the better teams. If he's the RB game guru and it sucks (albeit not all his fault) then he definitely needs to go.why would he be gone though - the offence just dominated a good defence, just didnt execute in some key spots
he's known for the running game but if we're carving teams up through the air, why get rid of him?

Question since I was multitasking while watching the game and didn't pay too much attention how many touches did Hill have?
yep...Billsright but if he's the run game guru, and he's created a dynamic, unstoppable passing offence the he's maybe the best person for the job
and we've seen dynamic passing offences with very underwhelming running offences go very very deep into the playoffs
if we cant salt games away with the running game, then we'll have to stay aggressive and potentially win some shootouts
I'm not talking about just today. I'm talking the entire season. I'm giving him the season to see how he does and then make the call if we need a change and yes there needs to be someone better available.why would he be gone though - the offence just dominated a good defence, just didnt execute in some key spots

Expecting this to be another reasonably tough game. Probably harder than the Jets but probably slightly easier than Miami. But then again who knows.
The big question for Roman is how can you get the running game to work?
The big question for MacDonald is how can you get pressure on the QB?
Please no. Can this be one of his disappear games?you know matt judon is gonna be on one this week
