Only Williams took them outside....only his were stuffed.

I know this thread is into beating a dead horse territory, but it has to be pointed out that DWill only ran the read option a couple of times against Tampa, and the 1st one would have been a nice gain had Louis Murphy made his block.

Now, I'm not lobbying for seeing more of it, just pointing out how small the sample size was and that the 1st one easily could have been a win for the running game.

RB's are a dime a dozen, look at how good Poole and Smith looked in preseason. Someone good easily replace Williams.

this is a silly myth compounded every year when people watch preseason highlights of johnny no-namers busting out seventy yard touchdown runs and assume that these sorts of plays vs. third-stringers will happen against starting-caliber NFL defenses

Look at the platoon of RB's the Saints** have, RB's are a dime a dozen. Are you telling me that's just sheer luck? Chris Ivory? undrafted, Pierre Thomas? undrafted, Arian Foster? undrafted, Legarette Blount? undrafted, BenJarvus Green-Ellis? undrafted, Isaac Redman? undrafted, Jacquizz Rodgers? 6th rounder.

All this Dwill doest fit or is on the backside of his career is a knee jerk reaction to a game where our OC was out coached and our OL was beat.If DWill cannot run the read option then the chud should not use it.It is as simple as that.Dwill is still an effective runner.

      I am curious to see if Warren is the elite player that the Huddle Warren stans believe. I am always fairly wary of these first round TE's.

      The Rossi things isn't going away, either... https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/3312416/unfinished-business-7-players-to-watch-in-back-half-of-nhl-offseason The Wild and Rossi shouldn't be having any trouble hammering out an extension. Rossi, an RFA turning 24 in September, recorded the second-most points on the team last season (60 in 82 games). The smart, skilled, highly competitive 5-foot-9 Austrian is a homegrown top-six center. Minnesota has $10 million in cap space and no other significant spots to fill to finalize its 2025-26 roster. Problems lurk below the surface, however. Coach John Hynes demoted Rossi to the fourth line in the playoffs, dropping his nightly usage from 18 minutes in the regular season to 11 in the first-round series loss to Vegas. GM Bill Guerin's top to-do list item at the moment is to lock up Kirill Kaprizov. The superstar winger, who's been eligible for an extension since July 1, is due for Leon Draisaitl-type money (around $14 million average annual value) starting in 2026-27. Guerin has said there's no rush to sign, trade, or match an offer sheet for Rossi. If he stays, a short-term extension makes sense, since it gives both player and team flexibility. If he leaves, a trade is far more likely than an offer sheet. Half of the league could use a second-line center, and Rossi still has upside. The Hurricanes desperately need to upgrade at 2C (Jesperi Kotkaniemi isn't going to cut it) and have plenty of cap space. Ditto for the Sabres, who picked Jack Quinn one spot before Rossi went to the Wild in the 2020 draft. Mammoth bench boss Andre Tourigny coached Rossi in junior, and they don't have as much wiggle room, but trading top-six winger Nick Schmaltz (plus a pick) could make the math work. Guerin wants to make a so-called "hockey trade" here.
