As everyone is saying beanie needs to be the RB, TH short yardage and 3rd down guy.
There was one play last night that both Zeno and I commented on. Collinsworth had just talked about how you have to run off tackle against the Colts to punish them for constantly rushing their DE's upfield outside. We had a nice run doing that and then on another play TH got about 6-7 yards on the play. If you saw the play it was an off tackle run and TH hit the hole. At the point he got through the hole what was visible on camera was there was NO defense to the right, and one defender right in front of him. What does TIm do, puts his head down and runs right into the defender. now he gained yards but Beanie on the same play would see the daylight and make the cut and run to it. I bet Beanie gets 15 yards or more on that same play.
They have to decide during the bye week if Beanie can hold onto the ball or not. If you noticed on his 2nd carry he nearly fumbled, the ball was almost behind his body and the defender tackled the ball not him. Beanie held on but I suspect that's why he didn't get more carries, Whiz saw that and said ok he nearly fumbled again?
Right now there's simply no reason to play more than 7 in the box against us and teams are just playing the pass on every down. We have to get Beanie into the offense.
