Marion Freakin Barber

[TheCount]

I love this guy. Anyone still question how moronic it was to have JJ be the starter? So many people defended the rotation, now it just looks silly.

 

[Coakleys Dad]

We still need a slasher, change of pace. Just because you want to keep him fresh, his style of running is so physical you dont want to get him hurt. But I dont want to ever see JUJO in a boys uni again. As per this year his perfomance tonight was pathetic.

It looks less silly when you think about the fact that he blew his load in the first half...

 

[sweetness0986]

He's great, but we need to pair him with a speedy, quick back to counteract.

Right. Either that or they were keying on the run and no one could get open.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

MB3 looked tired at the end, but so did the rest of the offense.

 

[links18]

it seems you haven't read the numerous other threads with people acreamign that they never want Barber to start again?

 

[ghosttown cowboy]

He couldn't have been tired in the 2nd half, he had about 30 yards. We got beat because Patrick Crayton sucks.

barber looked great in the first half, to bad we really needed him in the second half

we had guys open all over the place but between drops, stopped routes, and romo being flat on his back he couldn't get the ball there.

Marion had way less fire in the 2nd half IMO...I thought it was pretty clear.

I'll give you the first part (Don't forget Romo missing a couple of throws as well), but how many carries did Barber even have the 2nd half? Maybe you were expecting him to keep turning poor blocks into 40 yard runs, but I wasn't.

It was the same blocking as the first half for the most part...

Maybe I need to rewatch, but that -1 yard run that he tried to bounce outside was working the whole time in the first half. The guy isn't superman. Every back who gets 16 carries a half, especially the way he runs, is going to be worn down.

Rewatch? Are you crazy, who would put themselves through that again?

wow i don't understand what it is with our WR and our Coaching staff deciding to drastically call back the play calling against teams with depleted secondaries IE seattle last year. Our guys were open all day this loss is BS i like how the two teams that are the biggest threat to beating the PATS were eliminated on the same day.

 

[TheHerd]

What I saw in the second half was still a guy kicking butt and requiring three people to bring him down, but all three were hitting him in the backfield.

:laugh2: I meant just that one play...

he isnt used to the workload he got today....i am sure he got a bit exhausted.

The stupid thing was not starting Julius. Barber was clearly tired at the end of the game. He wasn't there when we needed a closer.

yes and he shoulda stayed the closer i don't know why the coaches did this but it cost us a trip to the superbowl.

Starting Julius Jones would've sent us to the Super Bowl.

Right.
