Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 3989064, member: 289"] My perennial point is is that when we pass, we have multiple receivers so the defense doesn't know who is going to get the ball and you need more than one running back to create the same uncertainty on a running play. If they are going to take away the Csonka-like fullback and replace him with a Chris Elmore type, (if they even have a fullback), then the second running back has to be the quarterback, unless you have a dominant offensive line that can make simple plays with the same guy carrying the ball work. With Dungey or Shrader, we have that second running back. Now we need to develop the passing game to compliment the running game. The deep passing game seems a lost cause unless they go back to DeVito. [/QUOTE]
