Skrappy1 Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Final tally: Onterrio Smith - 7 touches for 34 yards and 1 TD Micheal Bennett - 5 touches for 21 yards Moe Williams - 5 touches for 54 yards and 1 TD And this is all while Mewelde Moore is conviently out with an injury...I don't even want to THINK about what will happen when he comes back and Tice feels compelled to give him some token touches each game...thankfully I no longer own any Minnesota RBs and don't have to, what a mess.

CaptainHook Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 It's a mess. Tice doesn't even realize how much it is hurting his team to not have a guy able to get in a groove and play well. This guy has no clue how to coach. It's like he's too dumb to make a decision, so he says, "let's play EVERYBODY". When you have 4 RB's, you have NONE.

My feeling is that this is Tice's last year in MIN. Edited November 15, 2004 by Bill Swerski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myhousekey Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 What's the feeling on the distribution of carries today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrappy1 Posted November 21, 2004 Author Share Posted November 21, 2004 What's the feeling on the distribution of carries today? 568702[/snapback] Smith has been getting the majority of the touches...I don't think that's he's done anything (or not done anything) to warrant that changing.

It looks like Bennett is the RB du jour. Since Detroit is starting to spank them a little, they probably won't get to do all that much running anyway.
