Gadget RB thing was again nowhere to be found

[CowboyRoy]

Didnt need it clearly bro!

Would they have used it if they did? I have doubts until I actually see it. I certainly have more hope with Moore then Garrett.

That's a good question. I think most of the time as it should be will be used when needed not just show just cause

Once the team is confident Zeke can carry the load again Pollard will be lucky to get more than 5 carries a game.

Lets hope so.

The guy has amazing talent though.

Every year we hear about the gadget RB or player thing.

Dunbar, Austin, Pollard.

Its the big craze of camp every year. And we never see it. Lets hope yesterday was not another indication of that

Pollard was the backup RB and Zeke only played slightly over half of the offensive snaps.

Tavon Austin played 25 snaps. He ran fake reverses and those types of plays.

They used FB Olawale in a non-traditional role on some plays (i.e. deep wheel route, etc.).

We sent the GD fullback on a wheel route 40 yards downfield. In 2019.

That’s 4D chess by Moore right there

Im sure over the last 6 years we have needed to show it at some point. Its still never happened.

So you agree we saw nothing from pollard but standard backup RB handoffs?

 

[reddyuta]

Just use him like kamara,i am sure Moore will use him with zeke next game.

I think he was on the field with Zeke at one point but I have only reviewed the plays where Pollard rushed.

Dunbar got injured every time they started to use him more. Austin got injured last year.

Pollard will be on the field with Zeke for significant snaps this season but right now they'll limit Zeke's snaps again next week.

Based on how much they talked about it, I was expecting more from Pollard then a handful of carries up the middle in mop up duty.

But we have heard it before. Im hoping that Moore just decided to not play that hand yet.

Wow! Yet another overacting thread.

Pollard is a gadget RB now?

 

[mrmojo]

And this matters why?

 

[Vinnie2u]

We only have so many balls to play with.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Can't show the entire division, entire league the entire package on opening day....
Can't live on those plays anyway
Football still won lost by lining up, move around some.....but beat the guy in front of you ultimatly

Especially with the Giants.

Yea true I'll trust Moore a little bit on that now

Why would we push gadget plays when we were destroying the Giants with our passing game?

Those of y'all who gonna post about how we'll suck once teams have tape on our offense, bookmark this.

Plenty of football left. Be patient Grasshopper.

I never once heard them say that about Pollard. They mentioned two halfback sets, which we did see against NYG, but I never once heard/read them say anything about a gadget guy.
