I think Miami should start working on a contract for Ricky Williams. This tandem is looking good now that both are not rusty.

Ricky's TD yesterday proves that he is going out there going all out for this team.

As for the loss, I think you need to put the blame on Linehan and Ferotte. When you have 2 backs averaging 5+ yards a carry, why do you not run the football on 3 and 2 inside the ten?

Why does Ferotte force the football into double coverage with the game on the line. There is no game management. Ferotte should be benched. Sage should at least be given a shot to do something. He has been a loyal backup for this team for years. Give him a shot. He is not going to be a long term solution but if you give the guy the opportunity, he might do something.

It also isnt difficult to hand the ball off 30+ times and only throw 20 times or less pending the score. They have no ball control and they are man handled up front late in the game.

Your thoughts?

At the same time, dump Linehan. whats the point in having two great RB's when the guy in charge doesnt want to pound them?!

The two running back system is kept dangerous by our offensive coordinator's commitment to passing the ball. If this were Wannstedt ball, I don't think we would be enjoying this kind of success.
 
maybe they do not want to over use Ronnie and Ricky this year like tampa has done to Carnel Williams. Just a thought.

It would be very difficult to have both Ricky and Ronnie averaging 29 carries per game. That's 58 running plays.

I didn't mean it in that context. I was leaning more towards other teams being able to gameplan to stop them.
