Ronnie just isnt doing much, and hasnt in a long time (for NFL standards).

Dont go blaming the line either, Did the Vikings O line become great overnight?

Did the Titans O line become great overnight?

Runners make their line...not vice versa. Yes, a good O line is VIP, but a great runner changes the game right now.

Ricky Williams is a playmaker, Ronnie Brown, although strong, hard running, can't create a play.

i think given the chance ronnie is better than ricky at this point in his career. If ronnie can get more than 10 touches he will be very effective this game

Ronnie can't create a play? Ronnie isn't a gamechanger? Hmmmm ....
There's a reason that Ronnie is the starter. Maybe you need to see some YouTube of Ronnie.

Ronnie is the one who needs to get the damn ball in his hands. He's a good all around player. Good rusher. Good blocker. Good receiver. Everyone says Ronnie has great hands. The Oline just needs to get him some creases and he'll get the maximum yards. I bet his "vision" and all that will be even better this year. His knee is 100% and Ronnie says he feels better than he ever has.
 
Problem is you have to give him at least 10 touches for anything to happen.

RW can break it on any given play, he does more with less. And right now, Fins O line doing little.

You really had to dust off the cobwebs to find those highlights on youtube.

Ronnie is nice, but what has he done lately? "Hmmm?"
 
In addition Ronnies, strange to me! Their are game where he seems indecisive about hitt'in the damn hole! Thats one of the things that really separates him from RW. You can count on RW to just go, with Ronnies Size, it bafflin how he can be so indecisive sometimes. He doesn't have the quickness of C.Johnson or A.Peterson to be playing around behind the LOS!!
 
How about we give any of our runningbacks the ball. I don't give a **** who it is, just let them run the ball for once..

Lets not get carried away...remember the wasted carries we gave to Polite last week?

I would have rather tossed the ball outside to Cobbs or pounded off tackle with Ricky...so just running the ball with anyone isnt the answer.

Especially when we have a Ricky in the backfield.
 
Im not blaming carries for any of our backs not doing this and that. Gore seemed to do ok with only 16 carries yesterday
 
Ronnie's indecisivness can be frustrating at times, but he's still the back I'd rather have with the ball in his hands.

Everytime Ricky has it I hold my breath waiting for a fumble. He had problems with that last year. It also seems like it is very easy to tackle him by his shoe strings, and he trips over his own feet a lot.

Polite ran fine. It's not his fault Henning called the play again RIGHT after he just ran it, which obviously didn't fool the guy who planted Polite.

Re-read thread please.

Ricky Williams is the best RB we have on this team. Why give it to anyone else?
 
We have the best chance of a big play when they are both on the field at the same time. The D doesnt know who to focus on.

Wow dude, my whole point was, we have to run the ball. I obviously didn't literally mean give the ball to anyone.
