Should we be concerned about this right now? Damien can have his moments but as each game goes by you realise he's not one to be grinding out yards. Mccoy has flashed but again he's not best running between the tackles and the coach's don't seem to trust Darwin at the moment despite looking impressive in pre-season. So that leaves Darrel Williams and I was very surprised that he didn't get many touches on Sunday after he performed so well in the the two previous games!!..like WTF is Andy thinking? The offense when healthy is brilliant but come playoff time and in the seasons ahead we're gonna need balance. It's games like Sunday that Kareem's demise really hurts us. [Reply]

We've gotten by without him but a quality back would make a major difference to this offense and take pressure off of Pat. There's no doubt he's missed imo. [Reply]

Remember what Travis said at training camp? "We're gonna pass the ball and then we're gonna pass the ball again. And just when you think we're gonna run the ball, we're gonna pass the ball"... :-) [Reply]

Andy underutilizes the running game, but he has one of the most innovative and varied running attacks in the NFL and any coach or defensive player will tell you that.
Andy is brilliant at designing a running game to not use often enough.
Everyone is producing on a per carry basis except Damien Williams. He had all 9 halfback carries against the colts. 23 yards on 9 carries was his best game so far! This ain't rocket science. [Reply]

Imo the O-line has had one terrible game of which the LT and LG were injured (Colts) and then they've had a couple of rough series here and there against the Ravens and Detroit. Apart from that they've not been bad imo. [Reply]
