We need one of these backs to step up and start rushing. Have we had a back gain 100 yards in a game this year? This RB by committe stuff is wearing thin. I like Ladell due to his hard running. This would also take some of the pressure off the O'line.

What I noticed yesterday was that who ever was running the ball was hitting the line, excepting the hole to open in front of them BUT because it didn't, they ended up running right into the pile. It was like they were not watching what was developing. NO ADJUSTMENT.

We're a mess. We need to start thinking about the "R" word.

I'm really surprise we didn't see more misdirection from the Skins in the 2nd half. I was in a tunnel and one of the coaches was walking in front of me and I said it'll be nice to seem some misdirection in the 2nd half. He heard me and turned and smiled.

It would be funny if Bruce walked through the tunnel and you gave him a coke:D

Ladell adds pressure to the o-line if you ask me. He missed at least 3 blocks he was in position to make that let to ramsey getting sacked. Candidate is a weak blocker but if far better than Betts was last Sunday.

Jarret Payton doesn't have the speed that Spurrier covets at his skill positions, so I don't see him wasting a high round draft pick for him. He does have toughness, and because of his father and the tough situation he has been through I truly wish him the best of luck, and I hope he does get the opportunity to achieve success in the NFL.
