I think what he's saying is this is his 16th start, and if he get's 78 yards that'll be 2000 in 16.

noa

I'm still waiting for him to break the big one this year. So far, his longest run is 28 yards, and we know he can do much better than that.

He should put up 278 this weekend if he gets another 30 plus carries.

How about a couple 4 and 5 yard runs?? His 1.2 yard per carry is not looking so great.

What's up with LJ this year? Maybe it's the line, but it seems like he's "pussy-footing" it or something. He looks really timid. I mean, he's done okay, but I remember him looking much more dominant last year.

Again, maybe it's the line...who knows. Maybe someone needs to tell him to his face to quit being a pussy and that will make him run angry again.

I watched him on Inside the NFL where he was miked up, and I could tell that the coaches are just preaching patience. They kept saying, "calm down, be patient, and the big ones will come." I think they are basically trying to keep him from trying to force plays when they aren't there. This might lead to more of what you see as pussyfooting.
Also, the 49ers played most of the game with 8 men in the box, which would be tough for every RB in the league.

Forget being patient when there are 9 guys trying to kill you-he needs to plow straight ahead and get the tough yards.

Interesting.

I wonder if his "pressing" is contributing to his fumbles?

Nonsense! Vailpass says the LJ has not proven that he is special yet.
