Official Where is Ronnie thread?!?!?

Why isn't Ronnie playing more? Seems to me like he starts the game, then Ricky gets the majority of series throughout the games. Is he in the doghouse or something? Or, is Nick trying to showcase Ricky more knowing they may be planning on trading him in the off-season.

I mean, if Nick thought he could get Ricky back in a Dolphins uniform, why draft Ronnie. I love Ronnie and what he brings to the team and I want him to remain a Dolphins for a long time. I wouldn't be hurt either way if Ricky was traded or kept on the team. Thoughts?!??
 
Has Ronnie hit the Rookie Wall?

The College season is coming to an end.. This is around the time the talk of Rookie Walls come up.

Ricky is being utilized more than Ronnie and is being more successful..
 
Doesn't matter who is in the game at this point, what's the point to risk a players health when the rest of your team plays with no effort and no heart?

Well, I do agree with that. However, this has been the trend for a while now, not just this week. I don't know, just something I've observed.
 
I think he is to some extent. He's gotten to a point where he isn't being allowed to utilize his physical skills. Ricky is more experience and knows how to better avoid the loss.
 
I don't know how reliable this is, but ESPN radio just said Ronnie had a twisted ankle and might not return.

People watching the game, is this true?
 
It's like before its hard to utilize anything when you get 7-13 carries a game. How can you establish anything? I understand the idea of a 2 back system, and the idea of using the "hot hand", but why draft Ronnie, have him show his potential, and not play him when he works his tail off in the game?

Don't read into it so much.:D I think Saban just goes with his gut at the time.
Can't go wrong with either back. The thing I love about our RB situation is if one of them gets injured and out for the season, we really won't miss a beat!
 
I think next season we should give Ronnie more carries a game. We should probably trade Ricky... If not I would like to see us do what the Chiefs did with priest and larry and run Ronnie 2 possesions and then Ricky 1.
