why only run 20 times?

Brown: 17 carries, 97 yards
Gus: 2 carries, 16 yards
Jones: 1 carry, 0 yards

R. Brown was running for big yardage every time he got the ball. so then why pass 33 times??

i heard a lot of talk about how Saban would take advantage of the bills weak rushing D. why didnt he??




o, also...... :lol: :lol: :lol: :D
 
i kinda agree, they stuff Brown the 1st half, then he started getting some yards. I think they should have handed off to him during that last drive. But maybe they are'nt combtfortable w/him. i dont know
 
Good point, Ronnie should have ran more and Buffalblows run d still sucks.
 
we went down by a score that was too much to play catch up by running the ball. Ronnie would imo have got more carries if the game was closer. With ppl like Chambers, Booker and McMike to throw to we had the players to get quick scores but we all know why we lost this game and i dont blame Ronnie because it was how we played in first half that cost us.
 
also, did ronnie have 100 yards rushing at one point in the game? i could have swarn i saw that stat pop up on the screen. did he loose a few yards to drop him to 97?

We were facing a shut out...
 
I wanted to be balanced. But we came out throwing alot early. It took until we were into the 2nd quarter for Ronnie to get his 4th carry.

I saw 103 yards too. I think he had another gain after that too I dont know how he ended up with 97.
 
I dont question the play calling one bit. We have to throw to set up our runs. The line was getting stuffed like usual in obvious passing downs.
