Why are we getting so pass happy? Today Harrington throws a quick out pass for 1 lousy yard on 1st down. I'm seriously perplexed by this growing trend where the coaching staff is abandoning the run before halftime. We are becoming way to predictable. No wonder Harrington had 2 INT'S nothing like dropping 7 back in the secondary when u know its gonna be pass pass pass. What gives?
 
What I didn't understand is that they kept running it up the middle on that crappy grass and he couldn't get any traction and go anywhere with the ball.
 
they should have run the ball more but when they did that stupid pass they were down by 2 scores with like 6 min left so if ronnie runs it takes more time and may only get us 1 or two more yards we needed the time more than the yardage the time to run was earlier in the game not late when down by 2 scores
 
I beg to differ, when the did that pass they were deep in their own territory early 4th qtr when they were dowm by only 3 still. Ronnie would eventually break one if given the chance, but when he's only getting 2 or 3 carries a drive not much to go on to get the momentum going.
 
when youre running the ball for 0-3 yards a play and dropping passes and fumbling...your not gonna get the ball. And when Mularkys offense starts to show some signs of life from the running game then give ronnie the DAMN ball other than that i dont think we're ever gonna get anywhere...Ask the Bills fans what happened to Mcgahee last year.
 
People have been saying "Give Ronnie the ball" all season long, but he can't seem to get anything going on the carries he does get. If he's not doing anything with 13-15 carries, does it really make sense to give him 25? ... 3 carries a game may not be enough to see anything, but you should see something with 15.
 
I'm not giving up on Ronnie yet, but he left some yards on the field today, and he continues to struggle with fumbling. Throw in the dropped pass (would have been a huge play and first down), and I was very dissappointed in him today.

He needs the season to show his true colors, but if he doesn't really start picking it up, I am going to call him a bust...a good player, but certainly unworthy of the 2nd pick overall. This game was Ronnie's big chance to shine. If he runs a little better, we have it easier passing.
 
It's not like he was lighting it up before. McMichael also took a big shot to the ribs, yet came out and performed well. Injury is part of the game...if you can't play through it successfully, man up, ride the pine, and let someone else who is healthy go to work.

Anyone who saw a big disparity between Brown and Morris today just isn't being honest. We all know how most of you felt about Morris at the beginning of the season...you didn't even want him as a backup. Kinda puts Brown's performance in a little different light.
