The 3 COMBINED are on pace for a total of

1037 rushing yards. The most highly invested and paid backfield in NFL history.....Hurney fugging magic indeed.

Oh CRA, how I hate you so...

For what.....

Oh, bc it is yet another thing I went on and on and on about.....and I look to be right?

Kinda like we should draft Luke bc he is a stud and Beason wouldn't likely be healthy? D sure looks good enough to win some games with rookie Luke in the middle if you ask me.

What do you do with 2RBS? You run the hell out of them with fresh legs. Sub them in and out. Remember when we had 2 1,000 yard rushers? (Hard to read but I took that in 2009)

What do you do with 3RBS? You use one as a badass FB.

What do you do with 3RBS and the best running QB in the league? You run the freaking wishbone or I formation or some damn thing once in a while. get these guys on the field. It's a bunch of talent.

Figure it out Chud

So this could work but we are running so many shotgun plays. We need play action and misdirection out of under center formations to utilize this backfield.

Well, nothing suggests our coaching regime wants anything to do with that....never has.

That is the problem.....Hurney wants X and coaches want Y = fail. Doesn't matter which side you take....it is a front office failure. Not a Cam issue, DeAngelo issue, Steve Smith or Jordan Gross one.....offensive players basically overall are put in a position to fail. They have proven they aren't going to overcome that.....

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
