Y'all are being short-sighted. He will be nice and fresh for us next week. This was intentional--to keep it off film and to keep him fresh.

My guess he doesn't feel as tired after this game like he did after most of the games last year.

Well we all know he was well hydrated since he drinks a case of water the night before a game.

He is a downhill, deep back runner. Been saying that since he signed.

This ain't going to work.

It's week two everyone will be fresh. If Chip held him back just for the Cowboys and took an L in the process he is an idiot. No way did that happen.

I can totally understand the 3.5 yards per rush not being good enough, but we DID get over 200 yards from scrimmage from our backs.

I'd take that every single game for 19 games this season.

I don't know why some continue to neglect that fact. They cannot fool us, we were there too, lol.

3-4 = empty back field
Red zone/ goal line = empty back field

Our coaching staff is telling us they don't trust the run game

Yeah, maybe you weren't there

Yet we would not have won the game if the RBBC did not perform well. We would have lost if we had Murray and he played like he played last night.

I'm not talking specifically about Murray
I'm saying that we don't have an effective run game
Read the "formations without Dez" thread in fan zone to see what the coaches think of our run game

8 rushes for 9 yards.

Where's the Murray crowd?

It was nice to see his debut go bad other than the 2 TD's. But don't fool yourself, he will get big runs with some of those sweeps. He has great patience and sets up his blockers well. On his 9 yard TD run, he looked like he would not be denied. I think the Eagles are still figuring out how to use the three headed monster they've put together. I believe he's going to get maybe 20 carries against the Cowboys.
