Go back to power running scheme..

[Jmac]

Obvious the Oline can not zone block or handle lateral blocking schemes. They excell at straight ahead run blocking and building the pass game off of that.

Trying to fit a square peg in a round hole is pointless. Don't waste another season trying to force the issue. Hubbard is a good back who can hit the hole and follow his blockers.

The other dude "not to be named" has shown me nothing. Pick up a power back in the draft and start getting back to what they did best. 

These same guys blocked well for Wilks and ran the ball well. Reich came in and tried to get fancy and fugged it all up. Don't fix it if it ain't broke.

Pick up some road graders and start kicking ass and taking names again.

Or, rather than stick with 1985 football for the rest of eternity, would could stop catering to our crappy o line and get some guys that can pass prtotect.

Most of the teams in the Playoffs can run the ball behind a stout Oline. Fancy blocking schemes only go so far.

Frank Reich is that you?

The Chiefs manhandled the Ravens are in the super bowl because of downhill, power running.  We do have an o-line that is more than capable of doing that.

Run to set up the pass, and pass to set up the run. Preferably get O-lineman that are versatile enough to do both well.

We have to get a new RB then.  Chuba, while much improved, is NOT a bell cow back.

4th or 5th round should suffice. Chuba looked decent behind a bad scheme, I would like to see him in a good one.

I got a couple of guys in mind for the draft, but Chuba was the best back in a bad RB stable.  Being the tallest midget isn't exactly awe inspiring.  Hubbard has improved, but again, he's not a bell cow RB.  He's a solid #2.  Sanders should just become the 3rd down back.

Braelon Allen in the 3rd round

Chuba can lead a RBBC.  You don't necessarily need a bell-cow if you have quality depth.  Chuba/Blacksheer/and a draft pick would provide that.  Sanders may be off the roster if he doesn't show any improvement in the spring.  I'd be open to a Brock Oswiler type trade after June 1.  (salary dump)

It’s the only way to maximize this QB. The dink and dunk offense isn’t going to work 

[PootieNunu]

fug that, go out a run a modern offense and Bryce either sinks or swims. We could have ran that 1985 power run bullshit with Darnold or PJ Walker and got knocked out in the first round.

If the Panthers can obtain a good power back to joe along with Hubbard, get a true # 1 WR and upgrade the OL a little, this team with the already good defense, would kick some serious butt.
