Running back rotation moving forward

[ndsubison1]

Morlock is good on sweeps and pass catching. Frazier is fine between the tackles and is a patient runner. But no, nothing explosive. Dunn and Anderson have big play ability. I personally feel Dunn will get more carries and deservedly so. They all offer something different.

I would say Morlock is OK on sweeps and is a good pass catcher. As of now, IMO, we don't have anyone that comes close to good on sweeps. No one with jets has shown up yet.

Should've said more so outside tackle running. That's where he excels IMO.

I'd agree with that. He seems good when he's got some north south speed going, but he just doesn't have the speed for the jet sweep. Then again, not many do.

Keep in mind that the Oline gets a feel for the RBs behind them. Having to do so for 4 is asking a bit much and not utilizing this great OL like they deserve. Let them do their work without having to think so much. Iow, stay out of their way and let them play.

Like I have said, I feel we are getting to cute on offense. Some may call it sophisticated, but not me. Let 'em play.

Seemed like the whole day we were looking for ways to fool Montana.

Agree. I did not like our game plan on O, and I'm not sure we had one on D.

Sadly, I don't think anyone knew what the D game plan was.

The few times we played "our game", things looked good. Team wasn't sharp all day, but at times things looked promising.

The offense absolutely needs to get more explosive, that is why Dunn and Anderson are getting carries. King isn't really an explosive runner, he is more of a workhorse. Chase can rumble kind of like Roehl, if he can get into the second level of the defense he is like a runaway freight train but like another poster said he needs a few steps to build up some steam.

I agree. They don't have that second gear like Crockett had and I think Dunn might. It's nice to have a back that can take it to the house from anywhere. I just don't see that kind of speed from Frazier or Morlock.

Crockett could also bust through tackles, he was a stud and not something easy to find. He did everything at a high level.
