When we say "run the ball" we mean with RB's, not Hurts 1 and run ball hogging. We mean run the ball with the guys we PAY to run the ball. Sanders got zero TD's last year because Hurts ball hogged him into no stats,which you were all for with the "Hurts is superman", God, the leader of mankind, pom pom waving all last year So I am tossing the BS flag(I'm getting tired of picking that flag up). I'm glad to see Hurts doing what we all asked for last year and letting the guys we pay run the ball(One of those immaterial crappy little tidbits I wanted to see from him this year) I'm glad you decided to join the "run the ball" clan in the "off season" after were were all ranting about it ALL LAST SEASON

Yeah, total BS! Not this past offseason…I was raving about how good a running team we should be in 2021…the offseason before that. Once the season started…well first game we lit up ATL, I kept jumping all over our coaches. You know I seem to be the only guy practically that looks at them for sone reason. I was pretty much one step away from fire Siri mode. Just constantly questioning why we weren’t running the ball. Made sense from so many different perspectives. It was just that obvious! What I said should have been the whole strategy going into last season. So nope….no way I’m letting history be rewritten acting like I wasn’t constantly ****ing at the coaching because we wouldn’t run the ball. Wrong guy!  Wool add that it wasn’t just a Siri. I wasn’t happy with Gannon’s Uber soft D approach either. Just constantly gifting every team 5-10 yards every down. Just letting them kill us by a thousand paper cuts. Hurt our O really bad that the D wasn’t getting off the field also. 

Good matchup on right now. Boutte-LSU WR vs Eli Ricks-Bama corner. Both slated as round 1 picks next draft

🤣

No idea who I’ve even been speaking to here. After our four win season I: welcomed trading Wentz. Was I the only one? Probably. I welcomed turning the reigns over to Hurts. Was I the only one? Yes. Knew we really were in a hole that Rosie put us in cap and personnel wise. Preached how our only chance was to run the ball. Our D I didn’t expect to be blockbuster. Our WR room I didn’t think was even average amongst the NFL. We all knew Ertz was getting traded. Our Oline clearly had run blocking skills. Early injuries made it even more important to just let the Oline run block. Dickerson wasn’t ready to pass block at all. Big dude who could mail people. Lane big dude that could mail people. Mailata big dude that could mail people. Crazy to think otherwise last season. Yet now it’s going to get spun that after I said the strategy all offseason was dominate rushing, was endlessly tirading to run the ball that you going to try and say everybody else thought that but me..,,.lord. Rewind and check the records. I’m on record the whole time here. Trade Wentz. Go with Hurts. Run the ball. Don’t want to say I was the only one…but sure felt like it most the time.

Plenty of reason Sanders didn’t score any TDs. One was injury. Another was Siri wasn’t utilizing him in goaline situations. You want to say Samders missed opportunities because of Hurts….some truth there. Need one yard…Hurts delivers all day long. Why not let him do it? Laughable to me how you try and spin Hurts scoring into a negative.

Can’t believe I missed that TJ Edwards is in a contract year.

They have second toughest remaining. Ours is tenth. I could see making different arguments up and down some. But look at the link from tankathon I posted. Clearly se teams with very easy schedules remaining. So yeah, give no credibility to Football Outsiders  if they say ours is the easiest. 

I give no credibility to tankathon,guess it's a wash if you think we're going to lose 3 games the rest of the way. I'll go with mine that says we may lose 1

Yes Ham "calls it" every time. No exceptions. If we have to change the agenda to "call it" we do that. 180's are never out of the question. Calling things after the fact is also a legit "I called it" We all bow to your magical crystal hindsight ball. Raved for 9 months how Reagor was the best pick ever. Hurts was super man "putting the team on his back and running" Must be why Sanders scored ZERO TD's last year. Let's overlook all that because Ham calls everything. Moving on...............

What a game!!!! LSU/Bama. Gutsy OT call for the LSU win. Bama with 2 losses will be out of the playoff picture. I think they need to review the rules AGAIN because Bama has a great team (Tenn was the other loss) Georgia took Tenn down today with great defense and in the rain and wind, they have a much better running game than Tenn Got to see some plays by future draft picks,so all in all a good day to watch college ball

This is for Stine lol

I don’t think Siri was that clueless. I actually take it a step further. Think that’s why Siri passed off playcalling duties. That was his way around Rosie.

This is laughable. No Mas was definitely not that guy.

I thought they ran it plenty last year.   I'm not sure running it more in week 5 would have helped much vs Tampa in the playoffs. 

You keep talking about " exposing a weakness "    we shall see come playoffs.  " the forest for the trees at 29 points" isn't going to be what matters then.    Press coverage,  crowd the box,run blitz and preventing the QB from escaping to his right.   That's what I want to see how it gets handled.  

Not " they studied Dickerson's technique, now they can find his weakness "????   Is that what happens,  they can beat an NFL player with a certain rush...it's that easy?   Like " he can't hit a curveball type thing"

Is that what makes Aaron Donald so good... he just knows a technique weakness, nothing to do with his own athletic abilities?    

I think you are anticipating failure...and you are already trying to pass the blame away from QB1.

East is tough this year. Teams that have our division remaining to be played are the teams ranked as toughest remaining. Washington, Giants, Colts.

3 juggernauts right there!

Aaron Donald is the most dominant NFL player. But anything lesser guys have some parts of their game they are weaker at than others. Coaches have tendencies in playcalling. Best to self scout and figure these things out first. But once your opponent exposes your weakness then you must show you can overcome it…or the sprinkle becomes a downpour. Seen it a million times somebody dominating gets figured out then everybody follows the example. If you have Aaron Donald level players all across the field…no need to worry about it. Otherwise….

Go ahead and name the best teams in the NFC through the first half of the season. We’ll see how it comes down at the end. But Eagles, Cowboys and Giants are on top of the NFC currently(with the Vikes). You want to say those three are easy schedule teams? Even if you do…look at the link I posted and try to explain how their easier than the teams schedule remaining that are super easy left.

Agree with those best teams... And we are the best of the bunch right now. 

At 29 points against the Texans is exactly what I’m saying is pretty much irrelevant. Your way of brushing off any individual weaknesses that might have been exposed. If they showed how to beat Mailata will that be a real issue going forward? Or you think it doesn’t matter because we still put up 29 against Texans? They stopped Hurts runs. They stopped our WR. I can come up with plenty of excuses…starting with the crap Thursday night game scheduling. All I care about here is if real weakness was exposed. If a certain technique works against our player. Sure we still put up 29…not what I’m even talking about at all.

Right....so far the opponents have not been at a level to expose any weakness.   It's why I say let's see the season play out.

I have a super long essay I can write if you want Ham(really tired of talking about Wentz again) But YOu were the ONLY one who saw things? Oh please!!! You don't believe the decision to lose Wentz was made the instant we drafted Hurts? You can't see this???  No you were late to that game so stop with the "I called it BS" You didn't "preach to run the ball" you were pom pomming that HURTS was running it. Difference. Our WR room wasn't average,yet you clammored on and on for Reagor. Even Ertz didn't know he was getting traded mid season?? Did you call that? Nope,we all suspected he could be AFTER the season,so more spin. You also don't think the decision to rebuild the entire team didn't start at the end of the SB year??? You weren't the only one,you just CLAIM to be.I can write that super long essay if thats what it takes lol. All we hear is how GREAT HURTS is running the ball. That is not what we had in mind when we say "run the ball"

At a level? Lovie Smith isn’t knowledgeable enough to figure anything out? Playing against a top player is a matchup problem. That’s a whole different animal than what I’m talking about. Yep your proving my comment of you not seeing the forest for the trees was especially accurate.

I'm going to be like you and not look at any links...  

I'll ask you who you think has the best shot in the NFC to beat us in the playoffs.   To me... Giants, Minnesota and Dallas are not those teams.    They happen to be mathematically the teams that can catch us during the regular season...  but come playoff time, I would be more concerned about some other teams.  Tampa and SF are two of those.

They are better than KC? Buffalo? The Vikes only have 1 loss(to us remarkably) but they can't beat us? Only game I feel we could lose is Vs Dullaz at AT&T. The rest of the division also has easy schedules OUTSIDE the division,so that makes them the best? I will respectfully disagree

You just wrote a long post that was every bit wrong. Too bad they don’t have scoring on this site. You’d get a minus 7 ….one take away for each false point.

Watch the film....you like to do that.    Tell me how you beat Mailata?    What was exposed?

Right and thats ALL he did last year and why despite the fact you call us haters,we wanted to see some actual NFL QB moves(you know like that pesky passing the ball?) How the H did Sanders not get ONE TD last year? HOW? 16 games and your #1RB gets no TD's that's  normal for you?

At halftime I was very unsure. And disappointed. But they got the interceptions and momentum changed.
