Darkwa

Am I crazy or is he not our best running back? Every time he comes in he makes plays.

When he started after halftime I thought finally the coaches made a good decision but then Perkins is back in and Darkwa only gets like 2 carries all half.

Darkwa IMO runs angry

and we need that right now. No clue what the coaches were thinking.

Darkwa runs with purpose

but is another JAG like the rest of 'em... the rotation of RBs is puzzling indeed.

I loved how he broke of a big run

And apparently that wasn't good enough for the coach so they went back to Perkins.

It isn't the RBs

Ok. There are no HOF RBs on this team. But these guys aren't getting out of the backfield before they get hit.

It's like a JV team

Where the coach has picked his starter.

Backup comes in, rips off a first down, then back to the bench.
Frustrating to watch. Must be frustrating to be Darkwa.

Whatever happened to "you go with the hot RB"?

Not that he's Walter Payton but Perkins is certainly no Tiki Barber either. I want to see more Darkwa consistently.

That's fine to say, but Darkwa HAS gotten out of the backfield clean. He should be getting more run out there instead of Perkins - he can help define a more physical identity on offense.

1st and goal on the two -

Perkins in....stupid, stupid stupid.

It's two games in a row now where a Darkwa 10+ yard run is followed up by pass plays.

Macadoo just does not run the ball twice in a row.
