Run Game

[supersaiyanshel]

Needs work.

Not sure if it's the Backs or the OL or a combination of both.

But we have some work to do here.

Fletcher and Martinez had 15 caries for 132 yards so it’s gotta be the Oline

 

[Go Canes!!]

Weren’t we playing minus 2 starters?

 

[canecat1180]

not sure if this is serious or not ? It just cant be . I mean we are a passing attack with cam but our RB eat up yards both games when they get in. At one point tonight we had 12 rushes for 110 yards. Yep get your crap together RB and OL LOL

 

[OptimusCreampie]

That left side needs to be shored up while rivers rest. Too much late hits from famu on cam for my liking.

Same endless run up the gut plays from last year and Martinez’s vision seems to be shaky. Does a lot of tap dancing for power back.

 

[mcnaire2004]

Shhhhhhhhhh. If Mario hears that we'll be back to 1st and 2nd down run up the middles

 

[Suhrthing]

Not great. Will need to improve.

 

[JZCane0825]

230 yards on the ground on 6.4 YPC

It was just ok against UF, more of the same 1H against an FCS team. 2H was much better, because Martinez played more and we ran outside the tackles/bounced outside instead of the same interior stuff. Our interior push needs to get a bit better, but this is a pass first team now. Why wouldn’t it be? We have Cam mf Ward and 4 legit WRs.

Martinez is our best back and it’s not close imo. We’re saving him for later in the season.

Markel Bell isn’t ready.

 

[WndyCityCane]

Did we run anything other than between the tackles?

Did we try any screen passes?

 

[Gables Canes]

The run game was more than fine today.

OL needs to improve their push a bit for sure, but I trust they’ll get there as the season progresses and they have tape and reps to learn from.

This! I noticed it last week. It's going to take a few more games to get the rushing attack untracked. Martinez was always going to need a little time to adjust to playing in an inside zone. We will be fine but it's a valid point that OP brought up. You can see both Martinez and Fletcher getting more and more comfortable and Lyle is going to be a good one. We have a great RB room and a great OL. Just needed everyone to get comfortable with everything. It will come.

...

Yall better be cool before the Feds come in here shut this whole sh*t down.

 

[E1k]

Should probably try to spread it out a but instead of the tight formations

Martinez gets positive yards every play because of his vision and footwork but the other backs aren’t close to that level right now..Also, go under center some

Tap dancing? He was running through tackles all game. Against UF too.

Were you at the game? Seems like a lot of it can be seen in person than on TV. Our run game seems a little shaky. I think the Martinez and Fletcher combo is a mistake. It's either Martinez n CJ or Lyle. We don't have that speed or burst with Martinez and Fletcher. I've said it all offseason, Martinez needs to lose the weight and get back to 215lbs.
