Peyton fucking Hillis had over 1,000 yards and 13 TDs two years ago behind sucky guards who are no longer in the league.
And I don't like Hillis ... I'm just saying ... quit making excuses for Richardson. He needs to play a HELL of a lot better next year and going forward to justify #3 overall.
He's got thunder, we need more lightning from him. It's just the truth. And it ain't the guards fault.

Richardson has no lightning I agree hes slow as balls and so far looks pretty average besides getting in the end zone but he is a rookie and hes gonna hit 1000 yards and he broke Jim Browns record with our shit play calling. But I agree with other dude our guards suck and our running scheme and general offensive playcalling is a joke. I go play after play predicting what they will do and they do it to a T. If my dumbass can predict then what do you think every coach getting paid millions of dollars is doing? Richardson is getting raped because nobody respects the passing game, our coaches blow, and our gaurds suck so inside running is a joke. I mean madden isnt RL but I know sure as hell when I run up the middle on obvious plays on madden I get my shit stuffed all day long, I run successfully on madden when I switch it up to outside, inside, weak and strong side never being predictable. I fake motion to make it look I am going a certain way and then act like I audible when they show blitz and then run it anyway. Those kind of headgames are needed to run the ball effectively. We dont do any of it were so fucking obvious a child could call plays like Shurmur. So maybe in someways Richardson is impressive with what hes done with the joke of an offense we have.
