The running game looked better once Randle left and there was a clear order established.

It doesn't take a moron much to figure out that McFadden has ran through truck sized holes for all of his damage and C-Mike has gotten carries on all different drives and nothing has been blocked for him. Sorry but some are a little slower than what I mentioned. Also what has Mc done up to this point? I just want a real RB, not a bum.

McFadden with 152 yards rushing.

I can't blame them for this one, since McFadden looked excellent.

Great game for McFadden on a heavy workload especially since the Giants were scheming the crap out of us with no respect shown to Cassel.

Besides the 13 yard run, CMike seems to run into defenders instantly. I've seen all our RBs (including Dunbar) rip off multiple big runs behind this O-line. CMike runs into the line of scrimmage and falls. I'm not sure if he's any good. Not only was McFadden having a great day running, but he's also our best blocker. That blitz pickup early in the game was excellent.

Why did we never run another screen after McFadden scored on the one that was called back?

DMac was great, but they still needed to get CMike more work to help spell him. Also was happy to see CMike thump a blitzer on the only protection I can remember he had.

This is typical with JG lead team. When something works they stop using it.

Last year Escobar scored 2 TDs against the Gints. I really thought he was going to be a redzone threat after that game. They barely played him in the offense the next few weeks.

No more talking about Cristine please.

We are going to need to talk about Christine because he and DMac repreaent a formidable 1, 2 punch. It's just something different with Randle every game and it's a tired act. To be completely honest, up until today, it was the same with DMac.

& please let's not sit here and expect any major proclamations because DMac finally made the most of his opportunity today. One game done not equate to a successful campaign. Consistency is the key.

Cmike would do just fine contributing to the effort if given the opportunity. That said, the overall run effort was much better today. The oline was much improved as well with Collins in there. That's encouraging.

Trust me, McFadden will be back to his old self once the Golf Cart sized holes are no longer forming next week against Seattle. Then we will be right back to square one trying to find a true starting RB.

Oh please, as if Dmac can sustain this? You sound like the idiot coaching staff or Jerry now!

None of these backs are worth talking about. Cristine looked like garbage by the way.

No you sound like Jerry slobbering over Cristine.

I didn't bring McFadden up, you did.
