Just wanted to see where people stand on this.... Frank frickin Gore makes the Pro Bowl based on having a great season rushing 1500 yards with 2 games to go! Those are the #s JuJo said he would post and Boys fans are waiting for!

I wouldnt say Gore is better than JuJo... so it begs the question, why isnt JuJo in the Pro Bowl or better yet why isnt JuJo getting more yardage?

I dont think anyone would argue Gore has a better passing attack!

I dont think anyone would say Gore is a better athlete (he is a bisquit from being a LB) let alone runner!

is it the "2 back" system that gave JuJo 24 less carries than Gore? thats thin...

Maybe the LA fans have a point... we do need someone who can get movement at the point of attack unlike the overpaid backups we have who try to get in the way I mean pull and Block in space!!!

is it coaching? Norv has always been able to get RBs to the Pro Bowl so I guess Gore is a system back!


this team is in dire need of some new direction... like Brady, Romo is human and Glenn and TO cant play forever!!!

Why?

Because he hasn't figured out how to run into anything but piles yet.

Once he figures out to use his vision and be patient enough for holes to form for him he might.. just might.. be the player we thought we had when we drafted him.

Gore is better than JJ. In fact Gore was suppose to be ahead of Clinton Portis at the U until he got injured. Reason he kept falling in the draft was his injury concerns and 40 time.

He was the player we drafted. He used to juke, zig and zag, shake and bake. I don't know what happened. I can only chalk it up to coaching.

I don't get what the hell your problem is with frank gore that kid is pretty darn good. He is much better than JJ he is top 3 in the league in rushing and plays hard and with heart. Get off it already

Um... Gore isn't splitting carries.

That always helps.
Yeah, but......he's not really producing when he is in there. As of late anyway. Of course this is all relative to the early Julius.

I think he was also ahead of McGhee too !!!

I don't understand what the problem is. JuJo still has 2 games left to reach the 1500 yard milestone. Never mind that he has just over 1000 so far, the goal is still attainable.

On a related note, we do run a 2 back system, and add MBIII near the goal line. JuJo doesn't have the same nose for the goal line as MBIII, so he won't have a lot of TD's.

please tell me this is sarcasm.

Frank Gore is having a redonk year, that is why he makes it. It is what JuJo's rookie year would have been like if he played the full season.

Over 200 yards in two consecutive games is attainable? I beg to differ.

It was sarcasm. I forgot to add the [/Sarcasm] at the end of my post.

I was being sarcastic, but Philly's D is vulnerable to the run, and Detroit just made Artrose Pinner look like a Pro Bowler.

We got away from the running game the last time we played Philly. I don't think we make the same mistake again. Jones and MBIII will have their chances.

Our last scoring drive against the Falcons was a thing of beauty. It reminded me of one of our drives in SB28 when Emmitt was fed the ball constantly on a long, time consuming scoring drive. It brought tears to my eyes. If we play like that when games are on the line, it is very tough to stop us.

Gore is better than Julius. Simple as that.

Its as simple as that, you won't say it but I sure as heck will along with most of the members on this board. Gore is a better running back period.

Are you trying to make Cowboys fans look stupid on purpose? Gore is 10X better than JJ. Ive watched a few of his games and the guy is a ****en monster, very impressive and I am a fan of greatness not homerism. If JJ would go back to his old self than he would be very good also, but fact is, he regressing. Right now, LT is the best back in the league and Gore is second. End of story.

By the way, Gore started in front of Portis and MCgahee at the U before his injuries. He also rushed more than 3,000 yards during his senior year in high school. I follow alot of colelge players so I know them well.

No. Frank Gore is a much better RB.

he's having a great yr

but people shouldnt discount Norv Turner as the #1 reason why...everywhere he goes the run game improves by leaps and bounds...the guy is one of the best offensive coordinators of his time
