Early this year I thought we should go out and get a rb like Coleman or Murray. I really feel a team needs 3 good rb’s.

DJ was okay and Edmonds was meh( at that point). Foster was coming off injury and Logan was assumed to be nothing special.

I would have called Wes Hills back. For one he would st least have a clue about this offense and two, he showed an ability to run between the tackles.

Quite honestly I don’t know if we actually had cap space to sign Murray or Coleman( who just scored his 3rd td today). Just one more thing to check on the negative side of the board for Keim.

Good chance both Edmonds and Johnson miss Thursday’s game vs. 9ers...means our RBs will be Alfred Morris and Zach Zenner! Niners are going to score 100 points.

Yep. I’d say there’s no chance DJ plays unless they risk the rest of his season by doing so.

It affects & hinders this offense dramatically especially when these guys don’t know the offense.

Deep deep doo doo ugh

I think he was out for this one because we have a division game on Thursday.

The difference after Chase left the game was obvious. Kyler had absolutely no confidence in Zenner knowing the offense and was so preoccupied with that he fell apart.

Amazing how the NFL works it's the plays you make or don't make. The stupid 3rd and 4th down calls that give them a TD. The no call on the PI. Kyler not seeing Chase on the wheel route and instead of a long gain or a TD it's grounding.

Totally agree. It’s going to be a huge struggle offensively until DJ and/or/both are back imo. And that’s most likely won’t happen Thursday

Trade DJ to the Dolphins for a 2nd.

Trade for Joe Mixon for a 4th.

I liked him in preseason and thought he was a powerful runner especially in short yardage and goal line. They should bring him back if available.
