Can you win with a no-edge RB?

Sir Blue and Gold

Brady if paired with a more mobile QB can work.

I think we've seen enough sample size to know that Brady with an aging Collaros makes things really easy for the defense to take away the middle of the field and make things one dimensional. We have a really hard time getting teams out of that look right now but the counter is pretty easy in theory and harder in practice.

The reverse is also true. We'd be a much more effective offense if had a running back who could done some perimeter and zone read runs with Collaros back there. It would widen things and unlock more of the middle of the field which is where Collaros likes to throw at this stage of his career.

That's my solution.

I'm going to disagree on your comments on the ratio, we lack quality starting Canadians and quality Canadian depth. The Mafia may trot out Kelly, Cobb and Corcoran as starters but they're not. Daniels is in the same boat.

Yeah the trouble with our running game is twofold
1 Brady is likely at 75 percent., I wouldn't be surprised if its something that makes quicker cuts difficult, and with Bryant not being effective that side for running Brady ior any running back isnt a great option
2 our interior line is weak, Wallace has been a disappointment, with his size you think he could move people, but he seems to lack in strength and mobility has always been an issue
Both our centers are not great either leaving an aging Neufeld.
I will commend Condell on his use of Wilson, and White in running wide sweeps. We should be doing more of these vs the long outs which seldom work out
