hoping4ASuperBowl Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Did he go to the Shonn Greene school of vision? Good god he was awful. Why was he he in on 3rd downs? He's seems like more a bruiser. I would think they would have been McKnight in that situation. Then when he was in on the goal line run and he fumbled there. Terrible first performance.

CTM Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 yeah terrible.. but the truth is the line isn't opening much, and the defenses are crowding the LOS daring sanchex to beat them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Did he go to the Shonn Greene school of vision? Good god he was awful. That was a bad performance, the line was bad but I wanted to see him just hitting people and falling forward. He fell into the fetal position once or twice and that is never a good thing.

Bleedin Green Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Why was he he in on 3rd downs? He's seems like more a bruiser. I would think they would have been McKnight in that situation. Then when he was in on the goal line run and he fumbled there. Terrible first performance. One simple reason: blocking. Powell looked like crap running the ball yesterday, but he actually did a nice job on a few blitz pickups. He also can catch the ball, so he could go out on a route too if they wanted.

I would rather they put the guy who has proven more than some complete unknown in that position. Especially considering how much better McKnight looked compared to Powell. Didn't matter though, it was a simple run that looked like they weren't even gonna try for the first down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flgreen Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 No burst to the hole, and no power when he gets there. Cut after season, try again with another mid rounder next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNJet Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Oh please, it was his first real game time ever in the NFL. He's only a rookie, everyone thought McKnight sucked last season yet he steadily improved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn't know how to run the ball now, he never will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to run when the D has no respect at all for you Qb and your OL sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
