Opinion: The Randle experiment is over

[Aven8]

Time to see what CMike can do and more of McFadden. I've seen enough and we need to lean on the running game bigtime!

Randle isn't awful, he is just not a lead back. He's a complimentary back only.

 

[juck]

Agreed

 

[reddyuta]

what are talking about,randle was outstanding today.the blocking abysmal to say the least and he still made something out of nothing.

Randle ran hard every time he had the ball today..turned several losses into 7 yard gains.

 

[The Quest for Six]

offensive line was horrendous today

 

[Stingray73Vette]

Yeah Randle was solid today, finished runs well and made something out of nothing more than once

 

[TonyRomo17]

lol? randle outplayed DMC again. he turned so many broken plays into positive yardage. DMC is just not a really good RB

 

[SultanOfSix]

Maybe Callahan is a bigger loss than expected. The Skins seem to be running well.

I didn't say he was bad, but he's not a #1 back, I'm sorry. He's Hambrick. Nothing wrong with that, but we need a lead dog fast.

McFadden looked slow today

 

[DallasDomination]

Offensive line was terrible run blocking..Randle had no lanes.

 

[hornitosmonster]

Agree.

 

[John813]

Uhh, I'm not a big fan of him but he played well in both games this year.

Edit: Im all for CMike to get touches, but Randle is our best running back.

 

[jblaze2004]

randle wasn't the problem today. Did anyone see murray? Can't run without proper blocking. Eagles Defense is good vs the run.

 

[Risen Star]

We'll have plenty of leftover meat for sandwiches this week.

 

[jrumann59]

McFadden looked slow today

no he looked tentative, almost deer in the headlights. Philly has a stout Run defense the team did rush for 100 yards. That all pro backfield across the field didn't reach positive yardage until the end of the game.

 

[Kaiser]

I think Randle looked better today, but IMO he still looks like a good third down back that is OK as a starting RB. He isn't a bellcow type though, I thought DMC looked better than him in the second half. Randle will still start but going forward I think more carries will go to DMC and Michael than today's game.

i would like to C-Mike too but it is really hard to keep 4 RBs active.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Not the first time this OL has struggled against the Eagles.

Sorry, but Randle was not the problem.

Randle made some terrific gains out of nothing. The blocking was not good on many plays and without Dez they have and extra defender to put in the box against the run. Then when Weeden was the QB it was obvious when it was going to be a run.
