Managed 6 yards. Now two or three may have been scrambles but when did he prove himself as a more capable rusher than the entire RB staff? We are wasting too many plays.

At least now we know to whom JJ gave the Les Miles nudes.

Miles loves scrambling QBs.

THat stat says it all. Good/excellent RB's aren't given the ball so a QB who has difficulty throwing can be a running back.

It's awful.

The offense won't change either.

Jennings can run a little bit but we use him like he's Michael fricking Vick. We need to just let him drop back to throw and then scramble if things are covered downfield.

How many times was he sacked? Don't those count as rushes for him?

3 sacks 23 yards. So he had 29 yards rushing on 11 attempts

Short side option is in the secret playbook for the Aub game.

Pathetic that our qb is running more than our backs

Does that include him dropping back then falling on the ground when the opposing D-Line runs over our linemen?

It all counts, putting the ball that many times in the hands of our "dual threat" QB, just like jj

Went back and checked all were rushes. Most for 0 or 2 yards. Long of 9. Stats are accurate. Yardage would be 29 without sacks.

This is why Harris should be playing IMO. They seem to want to run the QB a lot. Harris is faster and more elusive than Jennings, and he seems to always make something happen with his feet. Harris would never be caught as many times as Jennings did last night.

Jennings is a really slow runner IMO. I'd be surprised if he runs a 4.7. Harris looks like he would be the second fastest RB let alone fastest QB.

This is stupid. Do you hate Drew Brees or Aaron Rodgers? Both of these guys can and do scramble for first downs. Jennings is just slow.

Both Sims and Coker can run, Hill can run, Prescott, Driskel, Mauk, Wallace, Allen, Worley.

Has nothing to do with loving a guy that can't scramble. That is the majority of offensive systems now. That includes the NFL.

We were behind the entire game, we abandoned the run.

We abandoned the run but gave our QB 11 carries? That's one more carry than LF had vs ulm and one less carry than both Magee and Hilliard in that game. That's a game that we ran nonstop.
