Saunder's running game is a bit different than Gibbs, but it works better

If we can run against Jacksonville I will be pretty darn surprised. Would love to see it, but they are way stout against the very best running attacks in the league. The outlook for the season will have done a complete 180 if this offense does any kind of damage especially on the ground un Sunday.

So juilius jones/marion barber, willie parker/et al, dominic rhodes/joseph addai are the very best running backs in the league right now? Would you trade Portis/Betts for any of those combos?

edit: the steelers running game is very good, but still.

I mean over the last few years.

I guess you're right. they do have one of, if not the best DT combos in the league. I like CanadianSkin's idea over trying to estbalish a passing game early to open up the run later. Sunday will be pretty interesting.

dallas sucks and their fans are typically jerks who like the smell of their own farts. pass it on.

it's not a question, it's a fact. stroud and henderson are the best DT combo in the league. the panther's DL may have been better overall when buckner was still in top form though... they've got good tackling DBs as well that help them take away the outside stuff too.

Thanks Malcolm for keeping us on the right path... yes our OLine did dominate and hopefully they can keep that momentum again. If they can give Brunell time in the pocket he can go after his own record and maybe whip out McNabbs record of 24 in a row....

I want them to key on the run and I hope they were watching both CP and Betts run wild and get ready for that... then hopefully we can use a bunch of those passes in that 700 page playbook no one has seen and torch them through the air.... I think our first play from scrimmage should be play-action, deep pass to Moss.. You know they will be expecting the run..

That settles it: I journal these remarks in the Man Law Thread!!

Gibbs runs out of the I alot?

News to me.

Gibbs doesn't pull the line?

Counter trey sound familiar?

TheMalcolmConnection · 09-26-2006, 03:21 PM

To get back to the subject, I just watched the shortcut version of the game again and DAMN our offensive line, and I don't care who you're playing, owned that team. They're ALL professionals, and we just flat out dominated them.

TheMalcolmConnection · 09-26-2006, 03:30 PM

Seriously, re-watch the game. I don't care if it was the Texans or not. We play like that this weekend, we win.

CanadianSkin · 09-26-2006, 04:12 PM

We need Springs back ASAP.. once that happens then Gregg will be more willing to blitz as he will have two corners that can cover man to man instead of only one right now. Any word yet on his return?

Which one that's playing now can play man-cover? Seriously?

Carlos Rogers is much much better than many Redskin fans realize. He has forgotten to turn around and make a play on a few deep balls this year and he doesn't have very good hands, but otherwise he can really play football. Young CB's have one of the hardest jobs and adjustments in the NFL and he is pretty darn good already. Sure he needs to improve in many ways but he is 1 on 1 in man more often than not over the last three games. He is a cover corner no question IMO.
