We NEED A Backup Running Back

True this. Rewatched some of the games and noted how quickly (and often) our backfield was penetrated. The Oline does seem to be coming together, albeit slowly.

Also worth noting is that Schofield recently WAS a Raven, so that Dline likely had the advantage over him and his tendencies

In the Ravens game, we often saw six or seven rushing and our team didn't handle it well. We weren't prepared for it. I noticed that our defense stiffened some in the second half but our O was no better in the second half. It makes me wonder if our OC can make adjustments?

We NEED a workhorse RB! AE is a great 3rd down back/WR who hasn't seemed to been able to stay healthy. Imagine if we had a Derrick Henry or Nick Chubbs sort of RB carrying the main load with AE used in between that!

He did against Cleveland. Im just chalking it up to a TEAM not prepared.

It was a bad game, not the end of the season and not the end of the world. Turn the page.

If we lose to Texans because Ekler is out, you heard it first here.

I think Jackson is actually pretty good, if he could stay healthy. This is his opportunity to shine and that would be a great thing for us.

Jackson’s chance to prove he should be our #2.

Yeah I agree on Jackson but Kelley jumping for the goal line at the 4 yard line and Roundtree's stupid TD dance sealed it for me. We could cut them and bring in practice squad guys and we'd be better off or no worse.
