What kind of games do you want to win? Because running games don't win in the postseason.

2005, 2008 and 2009 Steelers, 2006 Bears, 2011 Texans, 2009 and 2010 Jets and many more teams disagree with you.

Did they win because of the running game or did they win due to their defense. All of those teams you listed were 5 were top 4 in PPG another was 6th and the bottom dweller was 10th.

Only the 2005 Steelers made it to the Super Bowl. The 2008 Steelers weren't a run-first team.

The rest of the teams met a real QB in the playoffs and wilted, with the exception of the 2011 Texans - it's laughable you even included a team that won last weekend.

That scares me too.

But if you draft Richardson and surround him with a very good QB, the team could be tremendous. And if you bring in a young QB, Richardson helps you ease the QB in.

But we're assuming that Pioli has the common sense for this. I'm not convinced he does.

I'm thoroughly convinced he doesn't. That's why I don't want Richardson - we'll never get a QB.

The only way we're going to get one is for the team to completely bottom out.

Or maybe Cassel can get hit by a bus...

We spend a 1st on a HB (a position most teams can fill in the 3rd, 4th, or 5th) and I'll be livid...

That is because you are an idiot.

You don't draft on need alone, you draft (especially in round 1) the best player on the board.

(Not saying he is the best player, but in general you should draft the best player available with the high picks, imo)

Thats a pretty unfair way to look at it. He is running behind what would be an average offensive line at the NFL level. LSU has a great defense. Not to mention that Richardson wasn't even used in the redzone which I did'nt understand at all.
