Something upsetting about next season...no running game

Recommended Posts

Running game is as putrid as the passing game.First off (not to mention any names), having a player that can never play and kill our cap with a ridiculous contract is maddening.To be handcuffed with this crap with no way out for another season or three sucks. Every team in our division next year will be more competitive and we need all the help we can get on offense. Our running game sucks..13 for 33 yesterday (Williams is about done) and the oline needs help big time....but 33 yards? Something has to change or Cam wont make it a full season (he is the whole running game) If there is more bike riding while we cant gain one yard I will puke. You can add fixing the running game to the list of needs.

Deangelo and his 2 yards an a cloud of dust hamper us more than Stewart.

 

We pay him so much money we feel obligated to give him carries. I would rather him run for 4-5 yards on every play than 1-2 yards and the occasional big run.

 

After his typical 1st down runs we are left 2nd and Long...like 2nd and 8/9.. Then if we go back to him like we did on the first drive of the second half we get 3rd and 7.

Stew's contract is worse and he can't get on the field.

 

Exactly how does DWill hamper us more than Stewart?

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
