On a night where Duke had 7 carries for 49 yards (7.0 yards/car) and Gaskin had 5 carries for 23 yards (4.6 yards/car), why did Godsey abandon the running game so thoroughly? I understand that you have to pass when you get down by multiple scores in the 4th quarter, but I feel like Johnson was severely underutilized. Don’t even get me started on why we didn’t use him in the passing game since acquiring him. 🙄
 
They abandoned the run because we couldn't pass an inch downfield and turned the ball over. By the second quarter we were down 2 scores. Blame Tua. Apparently, he can't play when it's wet out. He is in the wrong F'ING division.
Running isn't your friend down by 2 scores, it's your worst enemy as it kills clock.

But why didn’t Coach Flores point that out? :ffic:

Regardless. In that weather conditions those two should of had that number of carries in the first half.
 
Lack of completions derailed the running game.

Coaches absolutely have to go but Tua is the reason the running game couldn’t get going.

So why hasn’t the running game been able to get going all season then? Tua?

I completely agree Godsey needs to go- but who’s gonna replace him? Sounds like Flo is a pain in the ass to work for and Ross may be a meddling owner- Flo couldn’t get anyone last year hence the 2 coordinator bs… I blame Flo for the 7 game losing streak, but I credit him with keeping the team focused and winning 7 in a row, but if talented coaches don’t want to work for him, may be time to make a change
 
Seems to me the run game OC needs to go. He did nothing this season. Contributed nothing.
 
The idea that the run game couldn’t get going because Tua couldn’t complete passes made me laugh a little. Kind of misses the point of a running game.

New England won a game where Mac Jones completed two passes for 19 yards. The Bills just ran for 233 yards on a day Josh Allen went 11-26 for 120 yards and 3 picks. The Titans ran all over us, and Tannehill passed for 120 yards.

Running is supposed to work whether you can pass or not. A running game that doesn’t work when you aren’t effectively passing isn’t a very good running game seeing as how the entire point of a running game is to hedge against an ineffective passing game.

I'm baffled. The comments that the pass game cant get the run going is idiotic.
 
Flo needs to hire some grown-ups for OC and o-line coaches. Ross can overpay anyone for coaches, we should have the best. Ross can overpay anybody for scout, we should have the best. Ross wants to win and has close to the most money in the NFL. There are so many ways to improve the structure of the team where his money can be an advantage. We need that guy to make that happen
