Yeah, it was total hyperbole on my part. We've actually shaved off about a yard per carry compared to last year lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyde's first run of the game goes for 28 yards....so the rest of the quarter he gets one carry? Really? I'mm really beginning to not like his unwillingness to stick with the run when it's working. If they can't stop it, just keep doing it Kyle. You get no bonus points for showing how varied your offense can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can explain our problems in the secondary due to injuries, rookies and the lack of pressure on the QB, but the run defence really should be better. It was a lot of hyperbole. It's definitely not great, but it's actually better than last year's by a decent enough margin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2lamanaki Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 With that said, we've run the ball 7 times to 5 passes. I feel like early in the games it's a much better mix than later. It's just that the runs go to the wrong people (although the Goodwin run was a good one). Hyde should have more than 2 of the 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a lot of really nice play calls/schemes, but some of his play calling just makes no sense at all. Weren't the Falcons one of the leading teams in rush attempts last year? So why not at least try to establish the run game with a bad QB and poor supporting cast? How does he expect Beathard to be successful if we don't have any sort of run game?

And FWIW, FO has us ranked middle of the pack regarding run blocking as an offensive line. Ah. I forgot. We've lost 9 games already. Not 8 like I was thinking.

I don't have any faith that Shanny would change something up to make it worth it. Run 40% of the time, and only about 70% of those would go to Barkley...I feel like you're really wasting talent there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does he expect Beathard to be successful if we don't have any sort of run game? Or Garoppolo. I doubt Jimmy wants to come in and get pounded into the ground by the pass rush. If you're trying to get Jimmy to sign a contract eventually, at least don't concuss him right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like last year, we have a bunch of players on the front 7 that weren't even on the opening roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-ALL-DAY Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 That was a nice route by Hyde there....That's pretty much where Beathard looks on most 3rd downs. Finally a well blocked pitch play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just not seeing him being in the same ballpark as Fournette and Elliott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
