HOLY FUG A RUN WITH POSITIVE YARDS

[Jeremy Igo]

I-Formation with a blocking fullback. Weird how that works. 

Nice job by Armah here stifling a defensive end. 

 

It ain't pretty. It ain't exciting. But at the very least it is positive yards on a run play that would actually wear out a defense. 

 

Need more of this.

Yeah but putting three guys in motion to totally confuse the defense and cam in the shotgun with cmc running a slow ass draw right up the gut works waaaaay better.

Looks like Armah and Norwell were the only ones blocking while the rest of them were playing patty cake.

You know, maybe BigCat is on to something here... Brad Hoover for Running Backs Coach...

He has a nice gig coaching HS ball at a Cannon School in Concord.  Private school, Good money, no stress.

Need more power/Iso run were the OL is going downhill man on man instead of moving sideways.

[ladypanther]

You would think a "power run" team would do a bit more of this.

[Growl]

Armah had this weird block earlier in the game where he lept forward, planted and then popped into a block

 

Wasn't really sure what to make of it other than he clearly isn't a natural at the position. He still probably needs to be out there though. Line him and Stewart up and just run when its working. Watching us sit Stewart down so we could watch McCaffrey pick up one yard over and over as the clock burned away in the 4th was like taking crazy pills

Look at the play design we left manhertz  to block a DT alone while our RT and RG block the same DT

lucky the play gained any yards depending on manhertz to block anyone alone 

agreed Norwell  and Armah did fine 

[Cover2Safety33]

Having Manhertz at TE2 makes me painfully aware of how nice it is when it's Dickson blocking at that position. Honestly, Olsen's return will dramatically help our run game just by having Dickson blocking in that position instead.

9 men in the box.  Running into that all game just gonna lead to a lot punting. 

Should be one on one coverage on the outside and a QB licking his chops.  

The answer to our running woes has to come from the pass game.  You run into 9 in the box....that is just math.  The play isn’t the run with those looks.

I think opposing defenses have our run schemes pretty well figured out. 

Maybe we could, you know, adjust?

generally 9 in the box stops run plays...regardless of how creative you are.  Unless the opposing D just stinks. 

Adjustment is to beat the one of one coverage and hit them for a big play.   You stack the box against Matt Ryan, or Brees or Winston in our division to stop a run play.....they are going to hit a huge pass play on you most of the time.
