Imagine a Physical Defense and a Physical Running Game

[shabazz]

It would be great if we could go into this off season and get more physical players. Yes we're cap strapped, but we can make moves to get more space freed up. Wouldn't it be great to get physical defenders that oppose their will on offenses, and then we on offense get better at the OL, and focus on developing a ground and pound running offense that's physical and wears out opposing defenses?

Moves like this would help to shape our identity, and make us more physical especially in the playoffs and during the season. What are your thoughts on being more physical to destroy opposing teams. There comes a point where you have to stop being punched on, and you do the punching!!!

No need to imagine....just look at the Niners, Chiefs, Ravens and Lions

We don't run the ball but at least we make up for it by not stopping the run either.....that balance right there

I am a little nervous that they think they are only a center and runningback away from fixing their run game. It needs an overhaul.

Hopefully things can change, there's a RB I just looked at in the draft good LAWD he's a big boy, get some BIG boys on the OL and we could do some things possibly!!!

Really need a culture change to bring in some accountability and mental toughness.

Imagine? We lived it for many years and won multiple super bowls doing it.

I have the VHS tapes to prove it.

How do you keep those things preserved?

My VHS tapes of when we were good turned to dust at the end of the last century.

 

[IslandCowboy]

Imagine if that still worked in today's NFL. How many running backs carried their team to a Superbowl recently? Elite defense, yes. But you also need an elite QB or to get extremely lucky i.e. Eagles 2018 Superbowl.

"Maybe" a physical defense but the Solari, Schott and McFraud trio proved last year aint none of 'em got a clue on how to effectively plan an effective run game.

Run the damn ball and rest the defense sure sounded good last year too, lol.

OK. I'll take my Rubik's Cubes out of a box I have down there, and replace them with my tapes from the same era.

Hence the real issue with our team.
Never was the defense (yes they can improve vs the run) as overall they can hang with any offense in the playoffs as proven by the 2 Niners losses.
GB game they gave up after the 1st pick as they have seen this scenario many times........you know it's Deer hunting season.
Jerry BS every year it would be nice between us Cowboy fans to agree that the majority of us know who the Elephant in the room is and he cannot be carried to an SB esp in a cap league.

Gave up after opening drive.

Imagine a competent GM.

Yes, with a physical running game and run D, we're still going to lose in the WC game.

 

[fairviewfarmer]

A physical run game and defense would be a complete waste of talent while Trash Prescott is here. They would still lose to the same teams because you have to have a QB that can make plays under pressure. Even Purdy had to make plays under pressure and the 49ers have a complete team.

A bus driver QB on a team with a weapon RB and a weapon WR and a weapon TE and a good OL would be a better combo than what we have now. Just sayin.

That makes it a completely different game.

This is an awesome plan, let's get better in every phase of the game except qb, that way we can carry the qb into the playoffs, and maybe a super bowl.

 

[starman22]

We only have 1 true legit WR weapon on offense. Plus, we have no run game and a bad Oline. All the other playoff teams had good Olines, good run game and at least 2 - 3 legit WR weapons.

You ish and complain nonstop, yet you have absolutely no clue what you're complaining about. I know you and your groupie don't want to hear it, but this is the truth. Totally clueless.

Our run game sucks, and that makes it infinitely harder on the rest of our offense, but how many times was Cooks overthrown this year? How about Dak take off and run a little more often?

I know that our run game and our run defense was very bad this year, but GB's QB was a 4.5 million cap hit this year. That gives them a lot of flexibility with building the rest of the team. It's time for Dak to take some responsibility for these crappy games at the end of the season because he is taking up too much cap space. He has not shown that he is good enough to take up 25% of the cap, but he is still one of the reasons that this team loses in December.

 

[Buzzbait]

I don’t want to turn this into a Dak thread because it will go off the rails. Dak is not gonna extend without a raise.

No wonder, if I was starving on Ramin noodles, bread and water like he's done for the last 8 years, I'd want a raise too!

Overthrown Cooks? It's extremely hard to get a pass right in the bread basket of a short Cooks running deep when his defender is much taller and on his heels. Not all the passes, but there were some. We need a much taller and fast WR on this team to help take pressure off of CeeDee and move those sticks more often against good teams. Agree on them extremely high contracts by a handful few is hurting this team.

Kinda describes the 2016 team.
