The commitment to the run game was what kept us in that game.  Philly tends to win the time of possession (9th in average time per drive this year; 3rd last year), so for us to win it (33 to 26) is crazy impressive.  

The problem is our run defense couldn't get a stop whenever Philly did run.  Otherwise the gap would have been even wider.

I'm just pleased Canales actually followed my advice and used the running game to churn yards and try to win TOP. That was our best shot and we were so close to pulling it off. Losing Brooks surely derailed our plans some, especially since he would've kept Chuba fresher and been another outlet in the passing game.

No way it was close without your advice to Coach.

Canales did say when he first arrived about wanting to really establish the run. We haven't always done that, but I like that we tried and there were real benefits that came out of it.

I just took a peek and the Cowboys defense is generally not that good but they're the worst run defense we get to face this year. Mike Boone, I hope you're ready to carry some of that weight.

      The running back situation....

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      I had everything saved on an old email address and my computer crashed and could not be revived.  I tried reviving it, then stumbled on one I was going to create several years ago...So I am using it instead.  My fault--did not keep the email and forgot password--

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.

      By bandu · Posted

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.is what i am actually referring to in that particular post  all those #'s you are referring to are athletic #'s & Monroe Freeling had or has an impressive combination of size & raw athletiscm & it has nothing do with his size or athelticsm that is preventing him from being a day 1 starter in the NFL technique is where he struggled at the NFL combine & not only scouts but analysts alike also viewed him as more of a developmental type of player rather than a day 1 starter  go take a look at Will Campbell transition from the SEC to the NFL another first round LT that was drafted #4 overall by the New England Patriot,s.Will Campbell was a three year starter at  LSU & was thought to be one of if not the very best LT's in the SEC  & compare his SEC carrer to his rookie season in the NFL? just because you played good in the SEC at LT does nescarrily mean you are ready to start at LT in the NFL day 1 & or your rookie season  & one last thing i think you are jumping to conclusion & somehow assuming that i do not like Monroe Freeling ?which could not be further from the truth .what i do not like is the idea starting a player who is not ready ...just saying

      I'd 10x rather play the NFC North than NFC West.
