[QUOTE="Lee, post: 195305, member: 786"] This whole conversation was started because you said MM "doesn't look like what we need at bback" and "he's a dancer." You then lamented that we needed a "north south" runner. I gave you statistics comparing MM to our best "north south" runner at the position since PJ has been here and you completely dodge the evidence. My response to Whiskey gave some insight as to why the production overall at that spot was down as well. A big reason is that our best guy only got 86 carries. He averaged 7.6 YPC in a putrid offense. Dwyer in his best year didn't average that. I'm not comparing the 2 either. Again just trying to open your eyes so that you might be able to acknowledge that what he did as a true freshman on a bad offense is actually quite impressive. I do agree with you though that bback is one of the most important positions in the offense outside of QB. I don't think it's that simple though. What I think is more important than the position itself is establishing the dive. This takes more than just having a great bback. Your Oline, especially the GCG combo, must do their job and the QB has to make the right reads for this to happen. The last part is an area that I think Justin regressed in this year which also leads to less production from that spot. Someone that breaks down the film can say better than me, but I do feel like Justin missed more reads this year than last. So, to recap: Many things lead to the lack of production from the bback position this year, but that's not the point. This whole conversation began because of your comment about MM not being right for bback. [/QUOTE]
