Redskin28 Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Let's face it, Candidate, Betts and Morton is not the answer for the running game. Our offensive line is better suited to running than pass protecting. If I had any say in this dismal season, I would run the undrafted Rookie 30 times this week. I don't care if we fall behind by double digits, I would run Sultan into next week. Hey, if he sucks he sucks, but if he helps to stabilize our offense then maybe we have a back for the future. Besides Ramsey needs a week off after last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luca Brasi Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Sultan is injured and can't play this week. At least that's what I heard last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redskin28 Posted November 6, 2003 Author Share Posted November 6, 2003 Oh, ok... well I thought I saw him about ready to go in to the game last week, was I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor The Invincible Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 His hand is broke. What? Oh, right. It'd be fun to find out what he can do, but, uh, yeah. Rock looked good out there in spot work. The problem it seems with him is that he can't block very well at all. What's the news on Morton? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montilar Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Morton's got a high ankle sprain. That can linger and linger.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sashae Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 McCullough is questionable for this week... doubt he'll play if Canidate can. -s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phat Hog Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Hopefully we’ll get a good look at Candidate this weekend… if the offense can manage to stay on the field longer that 3 plays a series… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayumnuttinleft Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 LOL, a broken hand, WOW !!! he played in about 5 plays... Dayum !!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Hog Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Sultan seemed to go down on the first tackle every time he touched the ball last Sunday. I don't think he's the guy to be giving the ball to 30 times a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's to his return helping us get back on track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris 44 Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Samuels and Janson have been in the backfield an awful lot, and they arn't injured. Oh sorry, you meant running backs and qb's. Couldn't resist the cheap shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skins26 Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Sultan didnt really go down on the first tackle all the time last week. He broke a few, and looked nice catching the ball out of the backfield. Remember in preseason, he was breaking tackles left and right. And while it was preseason, tackling is still tackling in preseason, and he even broke two tackles at the same time once. He can break tackles.

SkinzFan007 Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 I gotta agree with Skins26. In preseason he broke some tackles and at USC he could break some as well. What I did notice this week two or three times that when Sultan got the hand off he coudlnt even get a step without a guy there to hit him. Give him a second or two and he'll find the hole and get some yards. Too bad his hands hurt or I'd say we give him some touches too and see what he can do. We need something to spark this offense and anything to get Ramsey some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlinginSammy HOF '63 Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 I know he doesn't fit the system, but we have to try to get A-Train here. Let's face it the current crew isn't getting it done and Candidate can't carry a ballteam like a bruser can. I live close to St. Louis and am very familiar with the Rams play and there was a reason Trung was 3rd string in STL last year. Spurrier has got to add some more dive plays for a big brute if he expects Ramsey to have a career longer han 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
