Where was Davis?​

 

[tyke1doe]

Maybe Davis knew something we didn't

 

[glimmerman]

thats why it would have mattered give Davis 10 carries plus some targets after pollard went out. Not abandon the run and make our offense easy to defense ie one handed one dimensional and even then the OL wasn't creating much of pocket.

Completely agree. There was no way we were going to win like that.

right i was posting during the game all over about is David even active, where is he..strange,

If we had 25-30 runs we would have had less passes. Dak could have played better but wasn’t all his fault.

May have been afraid he would screw up but as far as I know he don’t have fumbling problems.

 

[NotForLong]

This is a huge factor here. At this level the ability to block carries a ton of weight, and if you can't do it it makes it very tough to get on the field, especially against a dominant front like SF.

So why didn't they put him in on running plays

wonder is it MM or Moore's decision to how many and when backs are rotated?

if it was Moore i hope he leaves this run game needs help and he doesn't seem to get it..

Missing block assignment.

 

[goshann]

I saw him go out for a check down pass up the middle

 

[Cmac]

You're right, but they could have switched it up some, give Zeke a break. I don't think he can carry the full load anymore.

Zeke should have choked KMoore in the tunnel for that last play. I would have laid hands on him for that mess.

I know, what the .... was that nonsense? At least we're not the Saints who actually pulled off a zany multi-lateral play and needed just the EP to go into OT and then .....

"OOOOOOHHHHHHHH, NOOOOOOOO! He missed the extra point! Oh, my God, how could he do that?"

The guy is a throwback from Linehan. He runs this Offense like he did. Abandons the run at the worst time. He just can’t stick with the formula. Our Defense played well. No excuse for not putting up points.

They (media) are saying that Malik Davis was in one particular play where he had to blitz block ... - and got totally blown up in protection
..., and since he was not seen again in the offense.

Let him run on run downs ..no excuse to not have him in..hes been solid..

 

[cowboysfan99]

There were definitely a couple of large holes that Zeke was too slow to hit and only got about 5 yards where as Malik probably would have busted those for first down runs. Blame Jerry for paying Zeke and forcing him on the staff.

 

[nhcowboysfan]

It should be obvious by now, that who plays is determined on where they were picked in the draft and how much they are being paid. Thus, a washed-up, overpaid FB selected in the 1st round will never be substituted for an undrafted FA with fresher legs being paid the league minimum.

He should have been in on run plays or screens. It wouldn’t have been long enough to give away the plays. Didn’t call near enough run plays..

 

[Cowfan75]

Did they even suit him for this game? Our best running back was lost for the game, so they ran Zeke. Fair enough, but he's a shell of his former self, and we have another capable running back in Davis. No, he's not as good as Pollard, but he has some abilities, and with both Davis and Zeke we would have had a better chance to keep the running game going.

I kept yelling for them to put Davis in. They never did. They even used Lamb for some running plays and short, run-after-catch passes, and he's not a running back.

I was yelling the same thing. Guy has a burst. So of course we don't even attempt.

Meh ... Anyone that knows and familiar with Kellen Moore ..knows he hates RB screens, won't run 'em, ..has no patience or preference to try to develop them well here.
