this weekend....I hope I'm wrong, but I feel like he almost tries to find reasons not to run the ball. The eagles give up only 63 per game on the ground..will that be enough of a reason to abandon the run game almost right off the bat? We finally have some plus size linemen and I think they would love to do some slobber knocking on Sunday...I think they like being physical, where as pass blocking you are giving up your position vs. attacking the line in run game.
IF Kupp starts along with TuTu and Puka and Higs...he'll put up 50+passes again , maybe 10-15 runs.....not IMO the formula needed to beat this eagle team....yeah, I know I'm not the Coach...but IMO you need to play some keep away this weekend...running the ball assists in doing that.
Roman, don't put the Juju on us...
I'm worried about this too. We are going to have to throw the ball to win. But we all know what happens when we abandon the run, or try to get cute. I wish we'd go 12 and run it down their throats, and see what we have with that. This new look Oline could really be dominant, if allowed. And I don't think anyone is really game planning against our run game. Hey, I can always wish.
