will we see the RB rotation slimmed this week?

I don't know as much about the game as the coaches. But I wish they would pick Canzeri and Daniels and make weisman the cheerleader in the weightroom.

Sometimes I think Kirk is losing his mind.

Nobody has distinguished themselves so I imagine each guy will get touches again. The coaches are begging one guy to step up and have a big game and take the top spot.

I understand that Canzeri and Daniels both have more big play potential but it frustrates me to see comments like this about Weisman.

In the 48 rushing opportunties in Danie's career he has averaged 3.69 YPC and has 1 TD.
In Weisman's 402 rushing attempts, he's averaged 4.57 YPC and has 17 TDs.

We saw last week that Daniels can be a liability in pass protection as he let a guy go by him to get a clean shot on Jake.

I hope Daniels continues to improve and I think there will be a time for him but to just take Weisman out of the rotation is ludacris.

I think you are losing your mind.

Sorry brah, disagree with ya here. Nobody calls for The Hammer to ride the pine when he's out there trucking fools. I understand KirFer is trying to limit his touches to get him to late October/November; but it's tough to watch right now (am I impatient? Yup!). Hopefully it works out for us in the long run (no pun intended); and hopefully someone emerges now to carry us there. I'd put my money on that being Canzeri or Bullock. I don't think LDjr is quite there yet.
But as I said... The coaches obviously know more than us.

Daniels hasn't shown much yet so give me the Hammer, Canzeri, and Bullock on passing downs. Parker or Canzeri for an occasional jet sweep.

 

[NCHawker]

nobody has shown much.... how can you with a hand full of snaps per game?

I think Daniels and Canzeri are the most talented of the bunch. They have the most upside - I know that KF does not seem to care much about upside.

Are you accusing Kirk of playing the players that give the Hawks the best chance to win???

I don't think anybody would argue that there is more upside with both those guys or even when you compare CJ to Jake but just because there is more upside, isn't reason enough to play them.

We need more Canzeri. He's the only running back capable of cutting back on the outside zone play. He also presses the hole a lot faster than our other running backs. We have 4-5 games of empirical proof that Canzeri is our best back running the ball. I have no idea why we don't believe the production we see.

Less Daniels. At this point, he's a worse Weisman. He doesn't cut back the outside zone. He doesn't really move the pile, break tackles, like Weisman. I just don't think he needs to play over the other 3.

Bullock should play in 2-minute drills, and 3 and mediums to long. He's a good pass block, a decent threat on a draw, and good receiver.

I disagree with this part. I think Daniels has plenty of talent, but if there is one back that is suffering from not being able to "get into a rhythm, its Daniels. He needs carries and experience. MW simply isn't a tailback.

I want to see a lot of Mark Weisman this week. The clowns have never been able to sop him at running back a at all. Then sprinkle in the change of pace backs.

As A running back Mark Weisman has never rushed for less than 145 yards vs. the Clowns.
