He's an idiot. When we played the Rams last week, they schemed to get Gurley outside 1 on 1 on Bradberry by completely sealing off the DL/LBs and it worked, they sealed us off well. We did not do that at all. Even the announcers mentioned that we didn't get those two Tampa defenders inside sealed off. That means that unlike Gurley last week, CMC had no chance to cut inside for the easy walk in, he had to get outside Hargreaves when he's behind Hargreaves to start. If you seal off the other guys, the RB can go in multiple directions. If you block like we did, CMC gets half his options cut off and gets forced to beat a guy to the corner who's already outside him.

Right, looking at that screencap it looks like he is going to have to outrun another elite athlete with speed who has a head start or try to cut back where it would be 3v1. We didn't block it right. Plus it was a terrible call.

Alllllll these excuses for a RB.... a RB job is to break tackles. This was man vs man and cmc turned out to be a boy.... this was sad.... he completely nutted up with game on the line... I guess they dont run the Oklahoma drills anymore.... weak azz cmc on this play pissed me off

I mean we've seen CMC drag 3 people for an extra yard or two. He's strong enough...he did it in this very game. He needed less than a yard.

Just because we have seen it doesn't mean it is an intelligently designed play. Having your best players go 3v1 is a recipe for shortening their careers.

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
