Can we please stop running Charbs unless we need just 3?

It isn't a mystery.
He's getting 3 yards. if you need 3 yards? Great.
He's squandering downs, if not possessions.


If you want him to contribute and get more than 3 yds, pass him the ball. But he's too slow to get much running.

Hard to complain about getting to 3rd and manageable.

Averaging 4.6 per on the year. They need to deliberately get him going. The Cowboys are a team you can get physical against, somehow, despite their coaching staff.

Gotta run though, unless we're switching to an Air Raid Offense mid-game.

He's only had a few runs, he'll probably break a decent one eventually.

running is about the long game. You keep pounding and chipping away and eventually you start turning small gains into long gains. It also sets up the play action.

We complain about not running and then when we run and get to third and manageable we complain.

Man we are whiney. Problem the worst. And I take credit. Just sayin

We need to run. I have no problem with him getting 3 yards.

I remember watching Marshawn slam into the line over and over for 3 quarters gaining a couple yards per run. Then the defense got tired of getting their shit stomped and the big runs came. Charbs is a bruiser, keep the game close and eventually he'll get going

Don't hate the runs, but they need to mix it up.

They should be running more....... The Oline is sub average, and the play calling is predictable!
