that was due to a couple factors that no longer exist, though.

Nobody but Dexter had the physical ability to run anything but power runs.

Jones
Battle
McClain

Opposing defenses knew there no threat of stretch runs, toss plays or other runs that require speed.

When that's the case, it doesn't take much post snap info to blow the play up. Especially when there is loads and loads of tape telling the same story week in and week out.

What compounded the problem was the size (or lack thereof) of Weigmann and Lilja mixed with the limited repertoire of our running attack.

Hillis and Charles can both utilize far more running plays to force the defense to play them "honest".

Couple that with going from 280 pound Weigmann to 300 pound Hudson and possibly going from 285 pound Lilja to a larger guard and all of a sudden a glaring weakness turns into strength that defenses are forced to try and prepare for and limit. I think more times than not, we will het the edge in the run game.

Or a 6"5 330 pound Konz, with Hudson and Asamoah on his sides?

One of the more bizarre things I've seen in football forums is the whole "White people only like Hillis because he's white" crap. If you actually watched the guy when he was effective, he was tough as hell to take down. It's fun to to watch someone run the ball like that.

Especially when they're white.

Amirite?

Hell yeah. When's the next Klan meeting? I gotta wash my sheet. My dumbass roommate gave himself an enema and shit all over it.

Our interior run blocking was shit last year, Asamoah included.

Having a RB that can break a tackle is nice, but the middle of the line has to do a better job making holes.

That would be a good job for Dexter. Follow behind the running back and snag up the fumbles and run them in.

This is pretty much mute. Teams will stack the box and force the arm of cassel to beat them. Cassel gets no respect from opponents defensives . At least with Orton teams had to respect the pass. He could actually pass over twenty yards. Sad but true.

:LOL:

Yeah? Didn't they do the same in 2010? How did that turn out for defenses ?

And now we have a stud RT too

Ask the teams that we played that had winning records that year.
