Re: Welcome back Anthony Alridge.........

Ok, now have you all seen how this works? I come one this site and put the Skins on blast for not having an outside the tackles running threat to spread out the defense. Basically I decensitized you guys ahead of time prior to the Skins picking up Alridge.

Had I not done this you guys would have been up in arms about the Skins not having a clue and not picking up another O-lineman.

This team needs speed not a smaller worse pass blocking version of Betts and Portis. Great move.

Seriously, I agree. I watched the Dallas/Giants game and was actually supprised at how the Giants were playing them defensively. My ony assumption is that the Giants were afraid Dallas would break out on a long run on the outside. So they spread out their D-line to try and either force the RB back toward the center where they could collapse the D-line on them or use the side line as an extra man. Dallas found the center to be the Giants weakness and utilized it.

When the Giants played us they stacked the box between the tackles and essentially stopped our running plays. Now we have an outside threat and maybe the Giants will have to respect that and the middle will open up for Portis, Betts, or Mason.

3 similar RB's is over kill. I'd keep the best older RB (Portis) and the youngest (Mason) for the future. But I'm sure if anyone is cut it would be Rock cause they are using Thomas to return kicks also and he's doing just as good.
