The Washington Commanders Have A RB Problem, Need To Make A Change! Ashton Jeanty?

[@Crankbait]

It’s the offensive line, not the running backs.

[@tyroneedmonds3143]

Thank you! Somebody finally said it

[@dokedoker3340]

BS...look at the swing pass to BRob I think it is right before when JD5 rolled right and threw to middle of the field from his 10yd line. BRob caught the pass and for some reason cut back in right into a defender, friggin Bates had the guy blocked. It was easy to see he should of gone outside. I shouted it at the time. Then I noticed him missing holes not cutting back on 2 runs after that. Dude has lost his mojo!

[@JuzStevo936]

Yeah this line has be marginly decent at pass protection but god awful and run blocking

[@TACowboys]

@@dokedoker3340Brian is a pure power back he’s not supposed to work the pass game.

[@dokedoker3340]

@@TACowboys Agree, we need a complete back. He needs to be replaced.

[@watchman917]

They need to address the o-line in the off season, been saying it for last five years

[@danielryan4488]

I was listening to the John Keim report after the falcons game, he said the yards before contact more recently have gone down and the blocks/holes have just not been there. It sounds more like an offensive line issue (and what you would expect vs a strong defensive line like the Bucs with Vita Vea) vs a running back issue.

I tend to agree, the OLine is inconsistent and below average when compared to the rest of the league. We do not have one of the best RB corps but having a better OLine would help both the running and passing games. We have needs to address in the draft and using an early round pick on a RB would be a mistake.

[@verlonmason7114]

It's a combination of the offensive line, B.Rob and JD5. A few times on running plays JD handed the ball to the wrong side. Also, part of the quarterbacks job is reading the defense to know which side to run with the least resistance according to the blocking scheme. BRob running style contributes to his lackluster performance as well. He jump cuts when he doesn't have to. Sometimes the back needs to hit the hole as fast as possible.

[@WalterSobchak1000]

Not the time to write off players, B-Rob can come good on saturday. Stay positive

[@williambontrager2349]

Obviously it's the O line. We've struggled all year against teams good against the run. It's a bit scheme too bc we run up the middle or try to get the edge too much. We need more variety in the gaps too. Ekeler gets yardage bc he's a threat in the outside and they can't protect every part of the field. Let Robinson run to the outside more instead of just up the gut.

[@Leefoworld]

It's no shot we're getting jeanty, unless we trade up. & i don't think A.P is doing that. But i will love it if we somehow pulled that off.😂

[@jodom54]

Na there’s more needs above running back in the draft he’ll drop

[@RaxInDX]

Bro the running back class is deep we can get one in the 3rd or 4th round

[@Leefoworld]

@@RaxInDX I'm hipp, but if we can steal jeanty that'll be nice

[@thewinefox213]

I agree we gotta get CRod The Rock and also J Mack and I hate the runs the JD five does up the middle

[@tragiic333]

Nah deadass why tf are they having JD5 run up the middle

[@juansalmeron2536]

Offensive line needs upgrading, and to protect JD5… Give our quarterback more time to hit receivers. 🎉

[@BraveStarEric]

Good point, running game hurting us

[@raymondwhitaker1136]

The 1,2,3 punch adding Rodriguez could soften up that defense for Robinson

[@outdoorswithjv1616]

I like b rob but man not sure if it’s a knee injury or what but he needs to step it up.,

[@Crankbait]

It’s the offensive line. Think back on how often as the handoff is happening the defensive line is in the backfield. We need to draft or trade for a very good offensive lineman.

[@Itsmainduece1]

@@Crankbait But good rbs make those into yardage. Look at saquan henry bijah josh jacobs they all make plays even when the o line collapes we need a shifty rb to match with brob. Still tho def gotta fix that oline

[@marksc011]

I almost always agree with you but I think you're being hard on b rob. Defenders are usually all over him by the time he hits the line of scrimmage, if not sooner. Our boy didn't just forget how to run. O-line needs to step up. Our running backs are good enough. I'd rather see us get a big receiver in the draft

[@terrillallen-xu6wc]

The o line is the problem but my problem is running up the middle when nothing was their. My running back room add that 4.3 or faster back home run hitter either draft one or get one in free agency this year 🎉😂🎉❤

[@magmax76]

I definitely agree its more the Oline then it is BRob. Oline should be our offf season priority regardless.

[@robertherrera5975]

Pedro. In the upcoming draft i see a running back name nicolas singleton from penn state is an explosive runner. He is that good.

[@whiterabbit6575]

finally im not the only one saying it! Our Oline is set up more to pass protect and robinson has no vision! Watch the rub against the bucks robinson had a inside block and if he cuts it to the sideline he runs up it however he cut it inside and the lead tackler just shed his outside block and the he was gang tackled by the other two tacklers on the inside! that was the play i said this guy is done!

[@marktalbert2205]

We can always get a decent running back from free agency or 4th round in draft. First pick should be a wide receiver 2 pair with Terry

[@tommiehairston5602]

We have absolutely have to run the ball against the High Power Detroit team and keep that offense on the side Line if we don’t we don’t have a chance

[@ElJefe-t1c]

Nope we’re not taking a RB in the first round. Peters would draft OL instead.

[@jimmyz2098]

Agree Pedro. I like B-Rob. And I dig C-Rod too. I want them both to remain on this Team. I also think the O-Line still needs significant work. They'll get that done in the off-season. But there is no doubt.... we don't have our legit, 3-Down back / Bell-Cow on this roster. A game-breaker, and that one more weapon to keep teams honest, and vault JD5 into the stratosphere. Get him that - and go get him Tee Higgins. And let's hope with a year under his belt... Sinnott can become what we think he can.

[@benjamincole250]

U can’t play Rodriguez against a heavy blitz team

[@NoFGnoPUNT]

He can't pass pro ? Serious question

[@benjamincole250]

@ he can it’s just heavy blitz team would eat his lunch because of his size if he’s in the game they know we running the ball and if not they blitz and take advantage of his size

[@MaAT-z9m]

Yes, you can. Especially if you intend to run.

[@Unpackaged_Vinyl]

Rodriguez is better in run blocking than Brob. Brob was whiffing on blocks against the Eagles

[@benjamincole250]

@ I trust the coaches they know better than all of us so if he’s not playing they know y and that’s all that matters

[@donavongregory5560]

Is it RB issue, A OL issue, or Run concept issue?? I cant tell

[@Crankbait]

@@donavongregory5560 OL

[@jaya5264]

Glad you mentioned Tuten. 3rd round pick up. We need a speed back to balance our roster. He runs a 4.35 40 yrd dash. Insane. Najee Harris is overrated imo.

[@robertherrera5975]

Dear redskins fans look at nicolas singleton from penn state. He is very explosive.

[@draco2xx]

we should only use robinson on 4th and inches and use the other running backs to open up passing plays, other running backs have better vision than robinson

[@shehateme9955]

Going this far into a season Idk if the running back room is top 5 areas to address. Imho

[@venomgt7299]

Its an offensive line problem. Their not creating lanes for any of the running backs. Eckler and McNicols also struggling. Oline needs to be upgraded

[@JonathonLang]

Id looove to get Jeanty. Skatebo could end up being a dawg as well! Need a RB and CB bad and also line in the draft and FA. We need to get more pressure as well. Jona nd Daron haven't been doing it for us. We need to trade at least one of them IMO

[@lildrewZ]

C'mon bro,. I thought you knew ball. It's the O-Line, not the RB's. Most good teams have 1st round picks invested in their O-Line. Look at the Lions, look at the Eagles, then look at us. Not a single 1st round player...

[@Crankbait]

@@lildrewZ thank you 👏

[@PedroSchmith]

@@lildrewZ I mentioned that too. But Brob hasn’t been as good as Ekeler. Idk if it’s the injury or something else. Oline def hasn’t helped

[@bobumbel]

Ashton Jeanty if is there "not likely" with first round pick take him!!

[@jd1098]

But i do agree we gotta find somebody for RB

[@gr12321]

Without a running game, I don’t see why the Lions would lose to the Commanders, on paper. But weirder things has happened, that’s why they still have to play the game. Take a step back though, however much longer this dream season lasts, the league better take notice. This cast of characters will be the worst set of players JD5 will ever have to play with for the rest of his career. With Peters and Quinn, I can’t wait to see them next season and after.

[@Megalodon987]

B Rob needs a great off-season of work to get his legs sharper stronger and more quick twitchy he's just fine imo

[@Megalodon987]

But you're right rb2 energy

[@shanecooper9565]

Man u mean skattebo !

[@letstalkaboutitdmv1]

Maybe we start with blocking better instead of just blaming BRob 🤔

[@lamassu4100]

In my opinion they should give McNichols and Rodriguez more time, Ekeler is not a power back, he's excellent at screens, and as a receiver. HTTR

[@Tenskwatawa4U]

That the hell have they got against Rodriguez? Anybody??

[@cwhiteco]

I know. I simply don't understand it. I thought his 11 carries and over 100 yard in the fourth qtr against the Titans would give him way more carries. But no. He is better than Robinson. Actually he runs like Montgomery of the Lions.

[@cwhiteco]

CRod is better than Robinson. Have no idea why they can't see that. The numbers even bear it out.

[@jred0359]

I’d draft skattebo first round

[@cwhiteco]

That might be to early for him, but I wouldn't be mad. He is a dude. And a dawg.

[@T-Rose-2024]

Yes I been saying we need him hopefully Dallas don’t grab him

[@sebastianherrada6454]

Stats at the start are off. Ekeler had 8 carries 27 yards

@@sebastianherrada6454 yep mentioned that
