CP3MVP Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Despite all of the RB hype this offseason and camp The running game is still terrible. 3.5 YPC this season and sub 4 the previous 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter2_1 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I think Solder has had a few iffy games recently hasn't he? Certainly the Super Bowl, he was a revolving door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of that is going up against good front 7's though. Need to see Burkhead used more when he gets healthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, although I would think his replacement will be worse in 2018 than Solder is currently Seems people are losing perspective and using 3 games to draw conclusions about the talent or overall performance without looking at the context. Solder doesn't look especially bad, he has just had a concentration of the types of guys he has always struggled against. The run game looks "dreadful" because the Pats have played tough run D's and/or been in a passing mode on offense due to opponent weakness (New Orleans) or the game situation (KC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im going to call sample size and opponents on this. The Chiefs and Texans have two of the better run D's in the league. NO we rushed fairly well with 3.8 ypc. Im not ready to count out the run game.

Need to see Burkhead used more when he gets healthy White is the go-to pass catcher Gillislee is the go-to short yardage guy I have hopes that Burkhead could be better than White as a runner/Gillislee as a pass catcher.

What do you think? I'd say Rex would be the go-to wide out/slot HB....lol More of a catcher than a pounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadpulse Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I think Rexy is the most versatile back we have right now. Im really bummed he has been hurt because I think he could earn himself the bulk of the snaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
