I've never seen a head coach rip a player that fumbles. Even one of the toughest coaches I've ever seen, tom coughlin, didn't rip into tiki barber who had major fumbling issues. Just doesn't happen
No vision/patience. Cost the game @ Stanford, 3rd best in pass pro. 3rd best catching ..
He has vision/patience. Yes fumble problems. His blocking and catching is fine. As a pure runner he is so much better than the other 2
Agreed, think the split today should be what we see going forward. Estime getting a few more once he proves he’s not a liability securing the rock.
Because of the fumbles, Diggs is the best rb. Without the fumbles, Estime is best by far
Kinda like QBs, the ones who don’t throw it to the other team are preferred. I can see falling in love with the physical ability but even if he takes care of the ball, I prefer the running styles of Diggs/Tyree along with pass pro/threat in passing game. But all doesn’t matter when you can’t hold on to it.
Fumble on the Stanford 35 with 6:30 left- a lot of shit went south in that game but question is does ND win if he doesn’t fumble? Likely. Burn at least 3-4 more minutes off the clock, kick a field goal, take the lead
Tyree hasnt broke a big play in forever. He cant cut at all. It takes him forever. Catching out of the backfield yeah but as a runner hes average
When your late in the game, driving and need a FG to take the lead it certainly doesn’t help.
Frank Leahy. Before your time. Was all over his rbs on ball protection
Logan Diggs is the best RB on the team, IMO.
Why? What does a tirade do in that circumstance?
4.6 ypc against that team, or any team really, is not very good.
When you run every single play because your QB is less than 50% and they got 7 and 8 in the box it’s good. There was no mystery what we where doing.
This… let’s not act like there was any balance at all, I looked at my wife and said I think they’ve ran it 20+ times consecutively. Averaging 4.6 with 8-9 in the box is exceptional. This is like clamoring for Jamies Winston cause he looks the part/better arm talent (bigger biceps in Estime case) but has a propensity to give it to the other team. I’d give Diggs 15-20, Tyree 10-12 and Estime 5-7.
No it's not. We ran better in the 4th when they were stacking the box because they were tired. He wasn't lighting the world on fire in the first 3 quarters
I said because of the fumbles Id play Diggs. But if not for the fumbles, Estime is the better back. He gets more ypc than Diggs, hes more powerful and hes actually faster. He finds the endzone. Its just he cant hold the football so he deserves to sit on the bench. Mcculough needs to work on that with him
Yes. We had the lead, a first down, in the 4th quarter, with the clock running.
