Lack of good running game…

Think the bigger issue is the line play.  You still need a good line to run too.  Not sure if Brown being out is hurting them so much up front and Mongo was playing well for awhile.  Last week he struggled too

 

Doubt trading for an O lineman at the deadline would have helped much as the likelihood of getting a starter isn't that good.  Could have added depth, but that's not really their issue.

9 runs by running backs. Inexcusable, we already saw earlier this year what the team looks like when they abandon the run. The pass blocking just can't hold up and if you have enough pressure and enough reps eventually bad Josh will appear.  

 

But what did they do on the 9 runs, nothing.  I thought they ran too much. LOL  Someone pointed out if you  take away two 10+ yard runs by Singletary, and he's pretty much done nothing.

Well it’s hard to argue one way or the other. When we run we don’t go anywhere and it wastes a down. But when we abandon the run we are allowing the other team to pass rush only. For us it’s a pick out poison. 
 

bottom line, singletary and moss are 3rd string caliber RBs in this league. They don’t have good vision and neither of them are good in any particular area. We MUST draft a RB next year.
