Great running teams keep pounding it. Only then can you be consistent. You have to keep running. Saunders is too much of a girl to keep running it.
How did the team start winning last year?
Running (even with Brunnell) Running!!
Saunders system also destroys our own defense. Teams with a Saunders offenses have always had terrible defenses because he never controls the time of posession. Ball control- that's how you win championships.
We don't need his double reverses on 3rd and 1. Just pound the F*cking ball! Ask the O-line what they want. Unless you're going to get a whole new O-line, you need to get rid of this Saunders crap.
Ladell is a really good back too, averaging more per carry than Portis-
You have 5 backs - surely one of them can pound some yards out. It's a problem of determination from the booth.
