Nope, definitely counts, but doesn't negste my argument.  That run isn't a credit to coaching, scheme or Rhule...  it's a credit to CMC making something happen.  How'd the majority of his runs look throughout that game outside of that 49 yarder?

Seems kinda slimy to take any credit for broken plays.

Weak.

Yeah, now apply that to every team through out the league.  Their stats don't look so hot when you remove the ones that the talent breaks wide open.

cherry picking stat mf'ers at it again. giants were missing both starting DE's and Leonard Williams went down during the game. most of those yards came off one CMC run. Foreman had 2 carries...

150 yards rushing and yet they still lost

yeah, how were we able to run? 

Well, we have the best RB in the NFL (when healthy) and the Giants don't have a good defense and were missing players.

We actually had a really strong day running to the left. Even before that run CMC was averaging just under 5 yards per carry.

I agree with you there...  every team is trying to set themselves up for that one big gash or deep bomb...  the "explosives" as the football world likes to call them these days.  And yes, they are the outliers.  

But I'm just not giving that to Rhule in this scenario because we aren't like other teams.  He hasn't shown a consistent ability to make those plays happen or set up a defense so that we can hit them with an explosive later.  We have one of, if not the worst offense in the league under Rhule.  So, when we get big plays, I think it's more because of the players doing an extraordinary job rather than him or McAdoo dialing up something amazing on purpose.  

The fact we've only played 3 WRs for almost the entire game the first two weeks, ran the same plays multiple times, only ran two personnel groupings for the entire game in week 1, and the fact ESPN analysts could find that we were tipping our plays just by alignment of the RB makes it awfully hard to give Rhule any credit for anything.

Now I'm no Rhule fan, but come on, that run play was not the result of a broken play, it was run exactly the way it was schemed to be run.

I didnt say that was a broken play.  I just said it was a greater credit to the players than the playcalling.

If we did it more often, I'd be more inclined to give the coaches more credit.

If you ignore all of Chubb and Hunt's broken tackles in Week 1 where they individually made something happen, we'd probably have allowed like 60 yards rushing lol.  But it doesn't work that way.

    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
    • Sadiq feels like a lazy comp.  Sure he would be a big improvement over what we have but at a position we don't and maybe can't (midget qb) utilize.  I hope the staff puts together a list of players you automatically take at 19 (Freeling, Lemon, Downs, Faulk) and if none are there, trade back to look at (Thieneman, McNeil-Warren, Proctor, Lomu, Allen, Iheanachor, Banks, Woods).  I get the people that think an OT would be a waste because we temporarily patched that hole, and ILB and safety are a waste because that is high to take those particular positions, but by trading back we get extra picks to fill every need.  A draft that has an OT, S, ILB, slot WR, and C would really put us in a good position moving forward if we get an extra first three rounds additional pick.
