Run defense, get ready, our next four games we will see

[StarOfGlory]

1. Bijan Robinson
2. Saquan Barkley and Jalen Hurts
3. Joe Mixon
4. Brian Robinson and Jayden Daniels

Brock Purdy just outrushed our run game. This could get ugly.

So in essence, bet/fantasy football points will be high, and you'll make much money betting against our defense, and putting money on those players!!!!!!! Records will be broken against us "no team in 4 games ever gave up 200+ running yards lol

we have 4 games already we have given up 180+ yards. two games of 200+....the other games should have/could have been 200 or more yards given up. detroit could have easily done it, being up 42-9, but they continued passing to rub it in.

and the saints, just let up a bit, having scored 6 straight times.


yes, the next 4 could get really ugly and I think its at least two games of 200+ yards rushing we give up.

The Cowboys gave up 223 yards rushing again last night. The 49ers were using their backup to their backup at RB most of the night. I could argue this is just more proof that the OL is more important than the RB, but I think the message here is that the run defense is not getting any better anytime soon. Teams are going to run on Dallas because they can. Even when they get a lead and the Cowboys know the run is coming they can't stop it.

 

[The Quest for Six]

I believe the combined record of the next four opponents is 22 and 9......

Well get used to it because we'll be shopping the clearance aisle again for interior lineman after this season. This team goes through phases that last several years where they don't think a position is very valuable.

Linebacker wasn't valuable at all in the mid to late 90s. Safety wasn't valuable in the mid 2000s and neither was the offensive line until around 2013.

Interior defensive line hasn't been valuable for quite a while now. I thought it was going to be addressed after the Rams playoff loss several years ago but it wasn't. We continually sign linemen that wouldn't be playing in NFL if not for us. I don't understand.

Running back isn't valuable either. We went from taking Elliot with a top 10 pick to trotting out players who weren't drafted or were unwanted by everyone else.

On the other hand, we treat back up tight ends with almost the same importance that we treat the quarterback position. We would rather have a second tight end sitting on the bench all game than a player who could actually start on the line or at running back.
