The Run Game

Unread post by Be_Easy_25 »

Why is it so poor?

Is the OL?
Is Jeanty not seeing the holes?
We need a legit WR to open things up?

Please advise.

One thing we are not privy too is the team doctors. Its possible theyve said it wont matter much if he rests or not. If the main issue is the plantat fascitis, isnt that one that resting a week of two wont heal? Youd either need to sit several weeks or find ways to manage it?

I think this needs to be emphasized. Jeanty's injury was most likely downplayed by Kubiak. The whole team knelt in prayer when they saw it go down. There's a ton of context we as fans never get, we can only form conclusions on gameday. For me, Jeanty looks hobbled compared to how he looked last year.

If Cousins survives the next 6 games it will be a miracle...Doza will be seen sooner than later.

Jeanty needs space. Our OL isn't doing it. The A gap runs are a freaking joke.
when your facing 8 in the box, your outmanned on the screen cause the safety is ready to fill any gap that the linebacker misses plus the chances of a int is high cause everyone is up close to the line

the raiders biggest problem is not having a wr that can threaten the back 4

plantar is something that will bother a rb all year long even with rest, the risk is tearing it and having the player go missing ros in many cases other injuries pop up from a player favoring one leg more the other

Laube is the Eichenburg of the offence...should not be on the field except on special teams.

laube shouldn't be on the team. Him just making the 53 man roster indicates how much this team needs a lot more talent added to it.
