Twitter: Garrett: McFadden named starter against Seattle

[fortdick]

Yup and Jerry loves McFadden.

What does McFadden have to do to get a start?

When they went into this SBBC crap, they had no idea how to execute it and their lack of understanding has been on display for all to see for several weeks now. Giving Michael a carry here and a carry there is laughable. Finally we may be seeing signs of our coaching staff beginning to get it before it's too late. Give DMC the bulk of the carries and allow Cmike to become a true change of pace with 10 to 15 carries per game. That may actually work. Up until this point, the coahing pitch count crap had been very bush league and it shows in the results.

What is it about some of you that makes you think you are smarter than actual NFL coaches. If CM were worthy of more carries he would be getting them, or when he is ready he will get them at some point.

I hope McFadden can just stay healthy and the offense line continues to open up holes. Give McFadden a hole to run through and you see what Jerry gushes over. he this that hole blazing fast., not to mention Dez coming back to. this could be perfect timing. lets hope he can stay healthy

It doesn't matter who starts, because of McFadden's injury history, C-Mike better be ready to go. Both will get plenty of carries by the seasons end.

McFadden had a good game, but you make a good point. History repeats itself and I expect injuries when McFadden starts getting more of the workload. I really don't think McFadden is going to produce much more than he has in the games leading up to the Giants game. The RB position is still a mess and I don't see any solution on the roster at this time.

CM should have already been "evaluated" by being given an actual series or two to create an understanding of what we have with him in our system. To this point, it has been paint by numbers coahing.

There was? I am not being sarcastic that is actually a legitimate question. If that was an open competition then that was the weakest "competition" I have ever seen, because it did not appear to be that way at all. I felt/thought/understood it was Randles job from the way it was portrayed by the media and coaches IMO

It was unclear who'd be the bell cow when McFadden was signed and his contract was heavy with incentives.

Then he got hurt and that was that. But the opportunity was there for him before.

Or............. Randle was handed the job, just like I said.

 

[jnday]

Many of the Randle supporters do not want to see McFadden supplant him as the starter at RB.

I didn't realize that there was groups that was divided between the two RBs. I am in the group that thinks the talent at the RB position is slim and they could cut the entire group of RBs without any complaint from me.

McFadden has had a chance to be a superstar in this league for years, but hasn't been able to deliver due to injuries or just bad play.
