Why are we carrying so many running backs if this is the result? I would wager half of this board could get two yards per run...

Your wager would be wrong.

But yea we suck at running right now.

Barber leaves a TON of yards on the field. I'd much rather see Choice.

It doesn't help that Barber runs out of shotgun draw the whole time either...

I dunno... falling forward at the line ought to get a couple. But I wouldn't wager much...

Felix did to today, at least I noted a couple times where it seems there was more than than we got.

Is having so many backs creating subpar running? That few yards with that much money especially in Barber is just not a good return in the least.
 
Garrett sucks he didn't run the ball enough today.

Why are we wasting our time with a coordinator who doesn't run the ball?

I agree w/ this post 100%


Afternoon Juckie...good to see you sir. :)
 
Felix Jones had no running room today, and if Dallas is smart, they will hire a new coaching staff and rebuild the offensive line around him.

If Felix Jones played in a zone blocking scheme, he could pick a hole and make one cut and go. Plus, he would have access to the back side cut-back lane.

Teams will have to over pursue Jones in the hole due to his speed. They will try to cheat to get better angles, this leaves the defense suspect to the back-side cut-back lane.

You force the defense to choose. If they cheat in order to cut off the cut-back lane, Jones burns them by hitting the hole hard and vice versa.

It's going to be a long, long, long year.

You can't win in the NFL by putting up 51 passes.

If Felix Jones was running in a zone scheme like Tennessee, he would be a monster.

I thought getting Felix to the 1200-1400 yard rushing range would get Dallas a bye. He doesn't get the football, and he has people all over him when he gets it.

This team is going no where.
 
We have success with a power running game. Barber had carries of like 7 and 5 for a first down, then got taken out to do some rinky dink garbage run with Felix. Of course it didn't work, and Redball didn't go back to the run again.

The guy is a complete idiot.
 
As for me, I am sick and tired of this runningback-by-committe crap! Pick one and give him a chance to get a rhythm going with more than 8 carries in a game.

I do realize that Garrett has forgotten how to call a game that if focused on running the ball instead of passing it. Just think it is assinine to have Romo throw 50 times a game :banghead:
