    Rb Coach breakdown of the RBs.

    Seems David Cobb lacks work ethic and that could be what's holding him back from being the starter. Despite the reports of Cobb possibly having a big role over Sankey, this seems to seal the deal. Plus, Cobb is injured and didn't travel for tonight's game.

    If Sankey can play like he did in the last game consistently, I'd be happy.

    Crooms seams high on Andrews. Maybe he works himself in to a role in the offense.

    Crooms also doesn't seem real high on Fowler.

    I laughed at the shot at McCluster. "He needs to be able to jump up and catch the ball in the endzone"

    I had a thread in the chamber and ready to launch, then you posted this. So Ill just murder that thread and talk about it here.

    Antonio Andrew needs more carries!!!!!!!!

    9 carries and 2 catches is nowhere near enough action for our teams best RB.

    Cobb may have just lost his seat tonight... I hope Andrews kills it..

    We drafted Fowler, mainly based off of what Croom wanted. I heard Fowler talk about this that Croom told him several times before the draft that he was going to draft him and wanted him.

    Agreed. Andrews is going to get some work tonight I would think. He needs to take the opportunity and show what he can do!

    Yeah, I remember reading that also.

    Sounds like Fowler just needs to work on the fundamentals and mental aspect. He's in the big leagues now and can't over power everyone. He has to use his head more.

    Does not surprise him he said Antonio is the most consistent out of the whole group. When he came to the team undrafted last year, I felt he could be the best back on the roster.

    I agree w/ JCB. They've been letting Sankey try to get in a rhythm, they've been letting Cobb try to get in a rhythm. But they are pretty much just using Antonio to spell those two when they're in the game and get a carry here and there.

    I'd like to see them actually put him in the backfield for a whole series.

    Id actually like to see all our No.2's get a little work with the first team. Kendall Wright doesn't need these snaps, neither does Harry Douglas, rest those guys and lets see the DGB's of the team get to play with Mariota. I have an odd suspension DGB and Andrews working with Mariota could end up looking better than Wright and Sankey being in.
