Re: 2nd half concerns
Betts had 2 carries for 4 yards against Philly, as a team we only averaged 2.7 per rush.
I chalked it up more to Philly doing a solid job against the run than anything our backs did wrong. |

Re: 2nd half concerns
I saw the last game as it was more that the backs couldn't see the open running lanes than it was the iggles defense. I just thought with him coming to town that we would have seen more big plays with the ball in his hands than he's provided. I still think it's too early to deem it a bust of a move, but he hasn't been the back we thought and hoped he'd be so far in his season and a half with the team which has multiple factors. And the present he still isn't leading the offense to a top 5-10 rushing offense like we thought he might.

Re: 2nd half concerns
My biggest concern is the lack of pass rush from the defensive line. I know the Skins are currently ranked #1 against the Pass, however the lack of pressure is giving teams the ability to break a big play.
