    A good back would have redirected at least once or twice and made something out of nothing. Are we the worst oline in the NFL since 99? Because as of this moment right now, Richardson included we have never had a back that could do shit.

    This shit ain't nothing to me, man.

    There was nothing inventive about the run plays. Plus, we rarely stretched the field. Defenses load up the box and your not going to run. The play calling did not help us at all.

    We stretched the field twice... both resulted in INT's by Cromartie who covered Benjamin like a blanket.

    Philly completely disregarded our passing attack (justifiably) and stacked the box... they even narrowed their wide-9 D to stuff the run. Even Jim Brown would have looked bad today.

    TR wasn't 100%, if for no other reason, because he missed the entire preseason. I'm not worried about him.

    Five linemen can't block 7 guys... I'm not worried about them.

    I'm worried about a receiver corps that showed next to zero ability to separate from coverage.

    I'm worried about our one read wonder of a "rookie" QB who will throw to his primary regardless of how well covered they are... and miss them when they are wide open to boot.

    Thank you for noticing that Weeden was throwing into tight coverage all day. I'm one that says that you have to do that. The greats do. They thread needles all the time. The difference is the being accurate with those throws. You have to throw them where only the receiver can get them or give them an advantage over the defense. Weeden was inaccurate and all over the place. It's great he has the confidence to do it, and he has the arm strength, but he has to be that guy we were all be sold during training camp. Accurate, accurate, accurate. Today he was not. Hopefully it was first game jitters and adrenaline and he settles down and makes better decisions and doesn't give away 14 points by throwing TD's into the dog pound.

    wait, you mean a your rookie RB with knee problems might not run for 1500+ yrds and 20+ TD's this season? or your rookie QB didn't come in and toss 350yrds and 5TDs in his debut?

    you don't say.

    T Rich will be fine. When he was given the tiniest of running lanes he was gaining yards.

    As good as Thomas and Mack are they are not run blockers and tbh the rest of our O-Line is average at best.

    Richardson didn't have any holes and when he did he made some decent gains, I think he gets a pass for now considering it's his first real action since college.

    I'm saying wouldnt a great back like he's supposed to be chsnge his route on the fly? Head outside or somfthing. Who knows? Not run right into the pile and take a loss

    This shit ain't nothing to me, man.

    Well just because you are not Barry Sanders,Jim Brown,Bo Jackson doesn't mean you cannot be a great back.

    I kind of agree he didn't look like anything special, but he made 2-3 decent runs and trucked the one guy.

    He still might. After all, OJ Simpson gained 2000 yards in 14 games. And the QB may just have to wait a couple of games.

    I wasn't saying it- just some guys here with very unrealistic expectations.

    BTW, nice pick-6 by Ben. I'm putting the odds at 50-50 he can finish the season in one piece behind that decimated O-line you guys are left with.

    Seriously what the hell do you expect him to do? Our offense is so obviously scripted a 8 year can tell you what we're running. Not to mention every run is an ISO up the middle into 9-10 man fronts. Jesus could have suited up and only ran for 50 yards.

    Agreed. He moved piles, one guy couldn't take him down, he was able to make something out of nothing. The real issue is, why is Weeden not allowed to audible out of a HB dive into an 8 man front with no FB? T-Rich had no chance. He was as patient as he could have been with 4 guys on him as soon as he got the ball.
