We abandoned the run way too early in our first two games, especially last week. If Ronnie can get solid yardage in the first half like he did last week, we should just keep pounding the ball all day long. For a back of his talent, no way in hell you can give him the ball 15 times and predict a win for us.
 
Wow, going out on a limb about one of the worst teams in the game? I hope we do win, but it probably won't be tied into 20 carries for RB. We need to have about 30-35 carries combined between Ronnie and Suggs week to week.
 
I'll go as far as saying....

if RB runs the ball 20-30 times a game, we will win most of the games we play. No offense to Culpepper, but if we have to rely on him passing 30+ times a game we will lose more often than not.
 
how many games has ronnie even carried it 20 times ? and when he did, how many times did he go over 100 yards ? We pay this guy alot of money and it's time to put him to use...
 
I don't think it's just that, to be honest I don't see us winning if we run 40 times, and only pass 15 Either. BALANCE is what we need. Anybody ever think that "some" not saying a lot or all of Culpepper's troubles have been because of this, but "SOME" of it is because teams KNOW we are going to pass??? It's a heck of a lot easier to defend when the other team knows or has a pretty good idea whether it's pass or run. Running every down will probably get us nowhere, keep it balanced, and the defense on it's heels!!!!
 
I want to see Ronnie have an AWESOME day. 150 yards+ rushing, 80+ more receiving. It's time for Ronnie to show everyone what's he got. It's time for him to show he's on his way to being a top 5 back ...up there with LaDainian Tomlinson and Larry Johnson.

Let's do it Ronnie !!! Time to take over Dolphin Stadium today.
 
If we control the game, I guarantee Ronnie will get 20 or more carries. We should control the game. No excuses today. The Titans are just plain bad. Off subject: we may see alot of Young today.

I'm sure you'd prefer that Suggs get 25 and Ronnie gets about 8 right?
 
agreed. we stop the run too too too early.. pound him until they dont want to tackle him ( just like that rumor about lsu players telling saban they didnt want to face #23 again..)...
any team that can run, can win.
