TRich has only received 33 carries...

Fort Chief · 09-29-2000, 12:11 PM

despite averaging 3.8 yard/carry.

Moreau is only averaging 2.5 and Cloud a pathetic 2.0.

If Bennett does return this week TRich should be returned to HB and given 80% of the carries with Moreau getting the rest.

33 carries at 3.8 yards per carry are solid stats [b]for one game[/b] for most quality RB's.

Just give TRich the carries and the running game WILL come around.

For crying out loud stop wasting carries on Cloud!

My bad... I guess TR has received 47 carries for 161 yards, 3.4 yards/carry.

He should still get the carries IMO.

His average will climb as his carries increase.

TR tends to get stronger as the game gets longer. I would love to see a game in which he got 20-25 carries. Would be interesting.

I would as well and I like to see it this Monday night.

I just can't believe the coaches are still going w/ RBBC. I just can't fathom the concept. To be honest, it makes me angry. Especially when I see Cloud taking TR's carries away only to be stuffed at line time after time.

The only time cloud looked good in the denver game was when they threw the screen pass out to the left and he got a nice little run out of it. Why not use the screen pass a little more? Tony is still our best option at running back!

Here Here Gents!!! I could not agree more!

I thought Cloud was gonna pan out OK, not great, but OK. We still have yet to see him get a real shot, but I'm not comfortable risking a wasted game to find out. Niether is Gun, apparently, it [b]IS[/b] his job after all, not mine, on the line.

I like what I see from Frank so far, and I do hope they continue to give him a few, only a few, carries each game to get his feet wet. But he has not shown near enough to warrent many touches yet.

We know what Bennett can do already, but this ain't good enough. We've tried that for two years now, with no playoffs to show for it.

Kimble?? Hell if I know what he's got after the injury.

Seems pretty obvious to most everyone here TRich gets the job done. But he's so incredibly limited with avg 11 carries per game thru 4 weeks. Give him the ball 20-25 time vs. Seattle, and I'm about as certain as I could ever be from my living room, that our running game will take off!!!

I agree and Cloud should be our 3rd down back. The ONLY way the guy wil contribute is as a pass recieiver out of the backfield.
