Which is irrelevant to the fact that you fudged the numbers to make your case look better. 3.7 is still more than 3.5, and in this context much more than 1.1.

It was reported that our backs averaged 3.5 a carry so I went with that. Whether it was 3.5 or 3.7 it makes no difference because neither was good. Anything below 4.0 a carry is not acceptable. If you want to make a big deal over one game go ahead because we all know if Murray gets a good opportunity on Sunday he'll make some nice runs against the Cowboys defense that hasn't looked good against the run since preseason.

I don't recall making a big deal about one game. I simply corrected your error.

Joseph Randle. DeMarco Murray. Wonder how many fans from Oklahoma State and Oklahoma will be following the game? Mini-bragging rights for the state's best ex-college running back are on the line!

Who am I kidding? Adrian Peterson wins in a landslide. That one's for you Bleu Star. ;)

Peterson of today isn't a landslide.

Randle averaged 4.1 yards per carry. Is that still not relevant?

BTB says the reason the Eagles took to running so much outside was because both of their guards are weak and were getting owned by the Falcons' DL. That means if we can do the same thing, Murray won't be seeing the ball much running inside again and our mission will be to stop Sproles and other backs running screens and assorted other plays going outside.

Another option could be let one guy take the first half and the other guy take the second half. Either one can start but they each need enough time and reps to get in a rhythm.

I don't see a single thing wrong with Randle's focus on this game. In fact, I'd be concerned if this one DIDN'T have some special motivation tied to it.

For the last six months, he's heard all about how much Dallas lost by allowing Murray to walk. I'd seriously question his desire if he didn't feel this way.

He had 100 plus all purpose yards so let's not pretend he played badly.

Who's pretending? Not playing badly is now the standard? How the mighty have fallen if that is the case.

My apologies for disturbing your delicate sensibilities. Randle is not so fragile that the heat of the spotlight will melt him to a piddle of hurt feelings, unlike his supporters.

It wasn't my error I posted what was reported and you're making a big deal over one game and a 3.5 rushing average vs a 3.7 rushing average. Stop nitpicking it makes no difference you're just looking to argue.

You were incorrect. I corrected you. Everything else is in your mind.

I posted what was reported only someone who's looking for an argument would make a big deal over it. Isn't it past your bedtime?

That's leaving some meat on the bone. It certainly wasn't enough to keep Romo from attempting 45 passes. You would have to go back to the 2013 season for the last he attempted that many passes.
