Our Run Game, What Is The Problem With This?

The OL could be much better, but these awful Stewart up the gut running play calls happen ever week and kill drives consistently.

I think Stewart still has a little left in the tank, but he shouldn't be relied upon to be the lead back, especially behind the current OL.  Too many times this season when he gets the call up the middle he kills drives like you cited, or at best he slows the momentum of the offense.

It's because half this picture wasn't activated today

We're making a big mistake not activating Armah. Shula has lost his mind. WE need more fullback lead runs... more strong and i-formation. Deactivate Fozzy. That's one problem right there.

McCaffrey averaged 8.9 yards per carry on 7 carries. Stew averaged 1.7 yards per carry on 15 carries (over double the amount). 

Both Cam and the coaching staff are under utilizing are best weapon. and keep trying to jam a square peg in a round hole with Stewart.

We got 145 on the ground in large part to McCaffrey and the big end around by Clay. Cam only averaged 3.1 yards per carry to go along with stew's 1.7.

1. No FB.  Remember how good they looked last game when Armah was in

2. Lack of deep threat at WR.   Even though the passing game is getting going more.  There still has been little to none over the top explosive deep plays that the Defense has to pull guys back just of the threat.  Instead teams still can stack up the box

Slow as hell Stew + Shula + no Armah + no WRs = stuffed run game

This coaching staff is straight retarded. I find it hard to believe that they couldn't inactive some scrub so Armah could be active. It just gets ridiculous how many stupid decision this staff makes.

Maybe they weren't trying to show their full hand before the Saints game, but I'll believe that if I see Armah next week.

I think you must be reading my mind. I agree with everything you said in this post. 

Not only would Armah help the run blocking , but he also has shown the ability to catch the football and make something happen in space.

J-Stew is slow to hit the holes, we need to give CAP more carries.

 What kills me is no matter whether he's good or not they will still sit  him and if he doesn't get something going immediately they sit  him. why aren't they doing the same thing with Stuart he has caused Plenty of slowdowns in momentum   During the game and it doesn't turn around when the game is on the line he will still let you down I'm so over him. Stop giving the goddamn ball to Stewart  goodness gracious knowing how Cam is yeah have to get in a rhythm you have to progress or else we can't come back.  In Stu is one of the things that slows us down so much more goddamn I wish we traded him

    • That makes me wonder, how many starting tackles in the NFL and/or elite tackles have short arms? I feel like there’s probably lots of tackles that end up being drafted in later rounds because they had short arms or didn’t have the physical tools.     also why not draft a tackle in the later rounds that we could move to guard or center if they fail, instead of drafting a center? If we draft a center we know they aren’t going to play tackle but if you draft a tackle they could end up playing any of the 3 positions, look at BC for example. It feels like it’s a better decision to draft a tackle in later rounds than a center.
    • Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game
    • I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country.
