Oh crap, mini me in da hizzy. He will be tossed around like a rag doll against this defense if he even gets on the field.
he would probably be a baller playing for another team that actually schemes running plays and blocking. LOL

I still believe in Deuce. But this team clearly does not. He gets one 3 yard carry, and he never plays again.

Meanwhile every other back averages the same and play the whole game. At least give him a shot.

Wow. That is not a good picture.

Hopefully, he will be utilized correctly. He will not be effective if they want to ram him between the tackles like he's Derrick Henry. Run him on sweeps. Throw to him in the flat or shallow comeback routes in the middle at linebacker depth. Give him opportunities to create in space. His quickness can be an asset if focused upon.

sigh. May be a pipe dream. Not sure Mike McCarthy has been saving anything in his coaching repertoire for 30 years that guarantees running backs can be successful in his offense.
I thought he was going to play WR this year.

I hope they actually have something for him and not just throw him out there to run the same crap plays they have been running this year.

He isn't that kind of back and those would be wasted plays.

McCarthy has fail Deuce in every way possible since Deuce was drafted. Unfortunately, I have zero faith in McCarthy's plan for Deuce tomorrow.
They have failed Duece in terms of plays that best suit his abilities. However, i feel like Big Mike never wanted him. He has no history of having a back that size or type that I can recall.

Another media win plan by the Jones boys. Storyline selection. Not saying Duece doesn't have a place in the League. He does. But, there needs to be a plan in place before signing him. Which to me means, the GM ensuring the player fits what the OC wants. No way Jerry does that during his part-time job.

Big Mike likes Rico.

I have 0 faith that Mike McCarthy will call any proper run calls and stick to the run game and iof iwer EE i would be in mutiny as well, MM has shown he doesn't care for traditional run game literally we go from having 20 carries and Rico showing something in Pittsburgh to having Ken carries the next game he's averaging only 10 carries a game.

Then we watch Elliot and you may not like him and you may appreciate that he's been sat down he had a really good first half in the last game and then they just don't even run the ball the rest of the game not with any intent on making the defense respect it.

Everyone around here thinks that this is the right move and that Elliot's washed but if you've really been watching it's not the names on the back of the jersey that's his problem it's Mike McCarthy it's the offensive line it's the offensive line coach, they just literally have no idea how to call run game...​
I mean do they forget that having a run game regardless of the yards per carry production you need to stick to it 20 to 30 * a game get somebody flowing early and then stick to that one player the rest of the game and wear down the defense make them think about the run game it will help passing game it will help your defense because the time of possession will give them rest does not any of them understand this but Mike McCarthy seems to have a love hate relationship with using the run game and I don't like the WCO if he thinks he's creating run like plays with short passes because it's not working...​

That's my take on this doesn't matter who they bring up who they sit down who they suspend Mike McCarthy still on this team calling plays the offensive line coach is still the one creating the scheme for the run game and it doesn't work it hasn't worked go team's biggest problems is the coaching staff from top to bottom regardless of what you think of the front office and the talent or lack thereof this is a big problem..

It goes back to last year if you look at how little they used hunter or Vaughn and then go into this year and go get Ezekiel Elliott because they think we have a problem in blocking short run games and goal line if they would have used hunter more last year they don't realize he could do those things!!!​
but they don't even use them correctly this year they don't use Turpin, I think our biggest problem in these off seasons is the coaches because they're not using some of the draft picks for the guys on this team properly enough to let the front office know where our holes are really are in the weaknesses really are..... if they used von Turpin and hunter more last year properly literally made them weapons made them a threat to the defense we might have not have zeke on this team this year and we probably would be a better run team and have a little bit more juice on offense...​

So that's my take on it nobody likes my long rants but you know what this been bugging me for a long time and we were blaming Kelly Moore and the whole time it's been Mike McCarthy!!!!.​

I hope our Oline actually blocks and McCarthy draws up some good plays for Deuce. Use our FB to lead block on some runs to help open up some holes inside / outside, counters, traps, etc. Get creative, McCarthy!
....don't count on it and I'm being overly optimistic. A pig with lipstick is still a pig.

right BUT the pig is MM and lack of commitment to the run game, FACTS, our issues are far less players and more schemes and play calling. big fat "piggy" Mike!!

I want to see 1 RB get 25 carries. I'd give Deuce that shot just to see. He probably has the most speed here. The split they have going on right now has been complete trash. You could deactivate the entire room and just throw the ball instead.
