COWBOY-KILLA- Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I know CP is a great blocker and I am probably his biggest fan, but man our run game needs to get it going. What do you guys think about kickin the tires and seeing what we have with him? It can't be worse and we saw enough in him to sign him and put him on the 53. Time for a change?

Dukes and Skins Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I'd like to see more Keiland and less Larry. This is how I feel too, after Larry's little Pop Warner move on Sunday I lost a lot of respect for him. You just can't do that in the NFL Larry and your not 20 years old anymore.

bowhunter Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I'm all for seeing what we have with Williams. Problem is, with Heyer starting this week, we may need CPs blocking ability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick1796 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I feel like CP has done well in all aspects of the game. It seems to me when the hole is there he is hitting it and making yards. The issue is the holes just aren't there as often as we need. I do think Keiland should be his primary backup and frankly i think Larry should be cut to make room for more youth.

Skinz4Life12 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 yea, its time to see what we have in him. no more larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Lloyd Christmas Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 williams just doesnt seem fast enough to be a legit back for us. he just kinda reminds me of CP now. probably decent up the middle but doesnt have edge speed. we need to scour some practice squads and find a burner kid that can take the rock on stretch plays and pitches and get to the edge. theres gotta be a guy like that out there somewhere.

justice98 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I'd like to see more Keiland and less Larry. I think you will because I can easily see a scenario where LJ just plain gets cut. I think he's only there because of CP coming off a season ending concussion. I think if they get comfortable with that, and it seems they are since CP's been out there 90% of the time, that they'll just cut bait with LJ, move up Williams and maybe resign Torain (if he's still available).

Spanky22 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 You almost need 2 polls here. I want to see Keiland over LJ, but I dont want to see him start over Portis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Lloyd Christmas Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 You almost need 2 polls here. I want to see Keiland over LJ, but I dont want to see him start over Portis. agreed with that. i still think williams has 0 burst as a RB tho. from all ive seen he just seems like a lumbering kinda guy. we need a guy with some electric speed. a brandon banks type in the backfield.

Sweet Sassy Molassy Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I was just saying yesterday that we should cut LJ and bring Torain up from the PS. CP's seemed to lose his burst and that falling in the open field **** is annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StillUnknown Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I don't really like any of our options at rb at the moment. in my opinion, Williams doesn't offer a big enough upgrade in the running game to lose CP's blocking which has saved McNabb from getting planted a couple of times already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GritzRgreat Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Maybe if he had some holes to run thru. Sorry but the run blocking on this team is garbage and until we fix that no one, and i mean no one will be productive in the run game. Let CP do his thing in the passing attack. I don't wonna see McNabb get killed on a blitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't wonna see McNabb get killed on a blitz. what i cant figure out is how our pass protection has been so solid yet our run blocking has been so poor. how can a group of guys be good at one skillset and just not good at all at the other? its really strange to me.

VeroViper Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I suppose we should play Keiland more. I wish we could find someone else. Especially after watching other teams, the thing that stands out most to me about our backs, is that none of them EVER make that first tackler miss. An effective NFL running back must be able to break/avoid tackles. Our guys just don't do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkFan8 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Sure. CP is a great 3rd down back anyway. Let's see what Williams has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iced Coffee Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 give him some more carries but don't start him.. or give torain a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warpath11 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 TBH I see alot of similarities between Arian Foster and Keiland Williams. Both were UDFA that had talent just did not seem to produce too much at the college level. They are similar size and have a very similar running style (one cut and go). I know it took Foster a year or so to get to where he is but I dont see the harm in giving Williams a shot here and there to see what he can do running the ball.

UK_HOG Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Whoever starts as running back will see Rabachs ass stuck in their face when handed the ball. They will have to avoid the OL before looking for gaps in the opposition defensive line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soup Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 The redskins are shuffling oline players DURING games and the fact that shanny puts larry johnson in the game instead of Williams, leads me to believe its an oline problem. I think Dockery is the issue not the runningbacks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
