scott is power, trindon is super speed and keiland is a great mix of both. keiland is playing and running hard for touches-- he understands the fact that the harder you run , the mroe miels will call hsi number. is it me or is scott either not as fast or the o line just isnt getting him holes for him to run--last year he would break some big ones and have many medium first down runs--- now it just seems he pounds it for a few yards each. when used like we did in teh past our rb's provide balance, of speed and power---- i owould really like to see more screens-- put the ball in their hands and let them break some man on man tackles
we need an asian smiley. anyway, i think our blocking is actually better on the outside and they run plenty of off tackle and outside runs with keiland. i like using both guys and don't see why we have to favor one over the other. i want both these guys to have great senior seasons. but keiland is running hard and i understand playing your hot hand.
And whose fault is that? If he had been performing with the attitude he showed last night he would have gotten more chances.
Clearly the offensive line is underperforming so far. Jefferson's pocket collapses too soon, usually from the outside, and our tackles were supposed to be the strength of the line. Our run blocking has dropped off badly from last year. Big Herm is missed on the interior line. But with quicker guards, I expected more pulling and less "coming right at you". I don't see many reserves playing and the O-line looked tired late in the game. One positive is T-Bob Hebert. The guy is undersized but he's playing smart and playing hard. I sure hope his knee stays solid, we're going to need him. Ciron Black has disappointed me and he's not playing like an All-American. Two drive-killing penalties in two games. Better blocking will open up things for all the backs.
Ah, ...very profound statement. .....but, wouldn't that depend on which way the trains are heading?:hihi:
i always find every year there's a player that if you ask different fans how he's playing they give you a variety of answers. t bob is this year's version. i've heard people say he's played horribly and people say he's played great. i guess i need to watch the center more before making judgement, so far i'm grading the line as a whole and it doesn't look good.
center is the toughest gig on the field outside of qb, right? he will be fine. ciron black has clearly been disappointing for me as well.
