Has Julius Jones shown enough ...

[Bob Sacamano]

I Don't understand it!!!! Running behind who!!! WHO!!! It's idiotic!! how about pitching it wide ...use JJ's speed Go Screen over the friggin middle! Get Creative! FFS!! :bang2: We hired an __hole Coordinator - I long for the days of Norv and his deep shots down field.

the problem with running off-tackle, is that you need your OTs to block their man long enough, that's not happening, going up the middle is our only chance to get a positive run, instead of risking a negative one going east to west

to put it in a nutshell, our Oline sucks major arse, and is limiting how we run our offense, as well as run the football, we HAVE to run it up the gut, it's our only chance for a positive gain

It's the O-line, not JJ.

Although JJ does look a hair slower since returning from injury.

guess the ankle isn't 100%, Julius relied on his cutback and cutting ability, doesn't look like the same runner from last year, and the line not holding their blocks long enough plays a major role in that too

I did not post his totals.

I am not saying he did not perform well.

I saw the O-line play, and I have been suggesting that is our main problem on this team.

I am saying, .. has JJ shown enough to merit 32 touches and Barber get 2 ??

My answer is no.

He should get mayber 60%, and Barber 40%, or something close to that.

the problem with the RB-by-committee system IMO, is that RBs can't get into a rythm, all great RBs need to be in a rythm, and that is established by getting touches

He had a 162 yards today. That's enough for me.
