What to do about this terrible running game...


Jmac

Recommended Posts

We have a totally inept ground game that's iembarrassing to watch. None of the teams I watched today even came close to the sh%t running game we put on the field Thursday. Is it the scheme or is the Oline just that terrible? Is it the game plan or the play calling? There is no way they can go far this year with that kind of production every week. 

What's the answer as they go into game 6.....or is there even an answer to fix this mess?

Our guards are great but are having a hard time when they're sandwiched between Matt Kalil, Larsen, and Daryl Williams.  You don't want musical chairs on the OL, but Amini or Moton should be looked at at LT.    

If Kalil comes back at Center, we bench the other Kalil and see if it clicks better.  

We also need a new offensive coaching staff.

Need a scheme change. It's obviously on full display how to attack gaps against us the way we are currently "blocking ".

 

I'd like to see moton inserted and run fuging power to the right side behind armah. If he can't lead block bring someone in who wants to fuging hit someone

I feel worse about the run game than I did about our passing game in the 1st 3 weeks. I thought there was some hope. The run game just look useless. They don't want to put in Armah and who knows what's up with Kalil.

It's bad. We definitely need to get this figured out now that we have an additional three days to work on it. Hopefully we'll get Kalil back and that will help, but surely missing Kalil hasn't hurt us THIS bad on the ground.

Scheme is fuggin terrible. Trying to run a power scheme when our line isn't built on power. We aren't overpowering ANYBODY this year. I wish we made the switch to a zone blocking scheme for years now. And yes, a good OC can make a line look a whole lot better than they really are with a good scheme in place.

The fact that we have zero running game if Cam isn't using his legs indiciates we need a scheme change. Cam shouldn't have to be the one to jump-start the running game BY HIMSELF.

For get about it and use the pass to set up the run. You can still control the clock and move the ball. Sometimes your not a running team and have to admit it. The way our defense is playing we can keep most teams to 14 to 21 points.

    • Here is what it said about him coming out of college: Overview A three-year starter with good feet and technique, Samac could be in consideration for a move-blocking rushing attack. He is strong at the point of attack but will have limitations against NFL power. He operates with good hand placement and nimble feet and is a demon once he’s on the move as a pulling center leading the way. He’s fluid and agile in the run game, but those traits fail to do as much for him in protection. Samac punches with inside hands but can struggle to widen his protection base in order to protect his edges. He has eventual starting talent as a run blocker but needs to add more mass and improve in pass protection to get there.
    • Through 2 games cltfc has 12 shot attempts. Opponents 23 shots on target. Attack sucks, Defense definitely sucks. Kahlina is the only reason they haven't given up 14 goals in two games. 
    • I met a few times--never liked him. I figured he might have had a bad day--but then realized that he must have a lot of bad days. Once he raised his voice at my son because my son did not understand a question when SS was signing his jersey.  I wanted the jersey to represent his encounter with a Panther great, not some small man with a bad attitude.  I told me son, "Forget it.  He was asking you what your name is (My son was about 7 and told me that he thought Smitty was going to write (my son's) name on the jersey.  He said "Dad, I thought he was supposed to write HIS name on the jersey, not mine."  I said, "He was personalizing it, writing it to you--like a birthday card."  He is now grown, and he has a steve smith Jersey that is framed and matted.  He keeps it is his closet.  I asked him, "Why not have that out on your wall?"  He said, "All I remember is an A-hole scribbled on my shirt.  I don't remember a legend or hero.  But he had a Jake Delhomme Jersey on his wall.  "Jake was great.  I will always remember that."  (Jake stayed and talked to us for about 5 minutes or more--GREAT guy.)
