The Raiders let Josh Jacobs leave. Those 3 teams are a combined 7-26. Those 3 RBs are a combined 24-9. Maybe (just maybe) elite RBs matter. Interesting point and the RBs are definitely making a difference But look at the QB difference for those teams. Daniel jones, Levis/rudolph, Minshew- To Lamar, Hurts and Jordan Love 1 Quote

WGR was stammering around this morning trying to bang the running backs don’t matter gong. Its 2024, playmaking matters. But the bigger lesson is still the same, when bad teams want to give you their best players, let them. Edited November 26 by Straight Hucklebuck 1 Quote

Buffalo716 Posted November 26 Posted November 26 Just now, DapperCam said: That whole drive was whack. Just bomb after bomb, when they had time to have a semi-normal scoring drive. I'm sure the Ravens would have been in pseudo-prevent and allowed the Chargers to march down the field and eat some clock. I'm not too sure about this Greg Roman guy. We all know about Greg He's a limited coordinator... He's a world class guy at developing a sophisticated run game But in pure passing situations his scheme is limited.. he's a glorified lines coach 3 Quote

In a league that has switched to more light boxes and smaller LBers…. There’s certainly something to getting ahead of the trends. Same goes for this Bills offense being run focused with big WRs and 12 personnel that can beat on secondaries in the ground game and break Cook/Davis/Johnson for run gains - plus Shakir and the RBs for YAC. 1 Quote
gonzo1105 Posted November 26 Posted November 26 There was no interference on that play it was a good flag pickup 2 Quote

TheFunPolice Posted November 26 Posted November 26 Dumb to be running Henry now when game is over imo 1 Quote
Motorin' Posted November 26 Posted November 26 Ravens averaging over 7 ypc rushing the ball on the season. Jebus. If if play them again, hoping a healthy Milano means we can play a 4-3 with Bernard, Milano and Williams. 1 Quote
zow2 Posted November 26 Posted November 26 This game would have been big for LA. Now they’re gonna need to work hard to make the playoffs. their only “easy” games are the last two but both are road games @NE and @LV Quote
TheFunPolice Posted November 26 Posted November 26 The most Charger thing ever would be to stop them here then score a TD with like 20 seconds left Quote
gonzo1105 Posted November 26 Posted November 26 Chargers are completely worn down defensively. This one is over Quote
DapperCam Posted November 26 Posted November 26 Running Lamar up 2 TDs with 3 minutes left. Not too sure about that choice... Quote
Cash Posted November 26 Posted November 26 2 minutes ago, MikePJ76 said: The history of the league has a bunch of guys his size who imo were better especially since they played in a different and more physical era of football. Steven Jackson, John Riggins, Franco Harris, Jim Brown, Eric Dickerson, Eddie George, Oj Anderson, Larry Csonka, Antowain Smith etc. All his size and most outproduced him in a tougher league with shorter seasons and more difficult playing conditions_Environments. I honestly never think of henry among the greats at this point. If he does this for like 3 to 5 years more I will. You lost me at Antowain Smith “outproduced” Henry. Not sure what league you’re referring to, but I know it’s not the NFL. Also, remember Brandon Jacobs? Very similar in size to Henry, and mediocre at best. Size isn’t everything. #thatswhatshesaid Quote
uninja Posted November 26 Posted November 26 Chargers down 2 scores and 3 minutes to go. Are we going to see the Charger-iest ending ever and watch them mount an improbable comeback only come up just short? Stay tuned. 1 Quote

If you took the 1983 washington redskins and put them in todays game with the perfect playing conditions all over th eleague and the majority of defense being light and playing a ton of nickel and dime with the rules weighted to the offense Riggins would rush for 2500 yards. I can't even imagine what Eric Dickerson would do vs today's defenses. Quote
