Sizzle 3,914 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I see Kam starting but Williams ending up with the most carries, unless Kam breaks a few early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAG 33,988 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Trick question ! Harold joiner Realistically: DJ Williams. IMO, he looks the best out of all of them. However, he was going against 2nd and 3rd string. I think people will be in for a rude awakening when they see how different it will be to consistently get carries against teams best players.

Mix it up between our normal offense and Wildcat looks. Have Williams in at RB. If we cut out the slow developing plays where our OL/TE/HB is supposed to hold a block for too long it'd do wonders as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going out on a limb, but if we are to compete against the big 3, we need to start fine tuning this aspect of the offense for two reasons. To force them to practice for it and for us to dominate in it. We have to protect our weakness which we all know is the o-line. Joey needs reps now if he is gonna be a big game asset later this season. this is the time to unleash this package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixtosanders94 2,180 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 In a word...creativity...find different ways to run with different players. Be CREATIVE. We have clear and obvious tendencies so give looks that the opposing team hasn’t seen on film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexava 6,973 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I don’t even like to predict anything anymore. I look forward to seeing it fold out and I don’t have any preferences. But I would like to see DJ develop into a stud. I just can’t predict he will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarTim 3,456 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Joey g may get a few series. We’ll see. Joiner can run up between tackles. I would like to see Worm carry 10 plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUsince72 11,084 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 No offense to Boobee 😏 but honestly him being out makes the upcoming Arky game a bit more intriguing. I'm genuinely VERY curious how the run game will look. Now, if Brahms would only get healthy so that they can sit my Mancrush down and give NB an opportunity...

aubiefifty 16,798 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 i bet gus starts out playing it safe. does anyone think he would play kmart and malik to throw others off if arkie is as bad as they seem? personally i hope worm gets out of the doghouse and runs wild with that speed. but i want to see dj as well.

ArgoEagle 1,788 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 We have already seen that Kmart is not the go to guy, so please let DJ, HJ, and WormJ I mean Worm get a bunch of carries. I hope to high heaven that somebody qualified is working with Bo on his footwork and throwing, also our receivers on route running. I have given up on our o line.

I doubt we see much of HJ or Shivers. Neither appear to have what it takes to be RB2 at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel sorry for whoever only gets to run wheel routes now. Hey, maybe it will be Worm. Better than what he's been getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBiGGiE 2,488 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Maybe Miller? He's been shown to be the preferred passing down blocker and he's a decent pass catcher. But he's certainly not as fast as KMart or Worm. I'm guessing KMart must be a liability on passing downs because he runs pretty well. I would guess he gets the start. Hard to judge DJ. His carries in college have been limited to a quarter in a scrimmage against the 3's, and a Mississippi State squad phoning it in. Could be his coming out party but we'll see. If there ever a time to have to test out our options at Running Back, a bye week and against Arkansas isn't a bad one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
