Well.....truth is....we need someone that can gain more then 2 yards. Yes, Grant got yards at the end of the game. But did NOTHING when the game was still on the line. And it's been that way all year. He just runs into the blockers and goes down. I REALLY thought he was gonna be something good.
Looks like it's not that way though.

It's amazing what consistent carries can do for a running game isn't it? End of the game, Lions knew we'd run, but we did it over and over and we get yards.

Yes, more me preaching we need MORE carries to have a running game before we can bitch about not having one. Give the running game a chance before burying it.

I agree with this. I just looked back at the drive summaries from the game and any time Grant got stopped for no gain or a loss, McCarthy completely abandoned the run for the rest of the drive. This happened three times before garbage time when Grant gained most of his yardage. I'm not saying Grant is going to add another 3 or 4 ypc if McCarthy gives him the ball more, but it's kind of hard to complain about the running game when you don't give it a chance to gather any steam.

Ahman Green was my favorite player. I want him back so I can wear his jersey again. Green didn't do good away from green bay because hes only good as a packer.

Maybe there is some truth behind the "RUMOR" of trading for Jackson

This is the Packers way of thinking, we need more in here and before we do the Jackson deal lets see what else is around

Or they are going to trade some RB depth for another position, so they need to replace the depth there. They've got Lumpy on the PS, though.
What we need is a third down guy who can CATCH THE BALL.
Screens. Dump offs.

I agree with Zero to a point..

But I think another factor is that the Lions knew the game was over, so their effort was not there a sit was in the beginning..

Plus Lang was in there. Cliffy can't run block to save his life. Maybe they knew Lang couldn't pass protect. The official explanation is that they wanted to run out the clock.

I think Dominic Rhodes could be a good pick-up. It's not happening, but I would be so stoked if we got Steven Jackson. I'd be jumping up and down for joy. [-o<

McFadden is a guy that I think could become special with a change of scenery. He seems really injury and fumble prone though.

Lost 3 fumbles in 160 carries. Not the greatest by any stretch.
Injury prone? He's in his second year and played in 13 games last season and started four games this year.

People so quick to label the hate, damn.
