EJ Rushing

• 2nd in BIG

Keep feeding that guy

Keep feeding that guy

100%

He's our best player on offense. Going to get over 1k easy. Was also nice to see Mosey running hard today!

He better be getting minimal workload and lots of rest between games.

 

[cestrup]

He’s ultra twitchy and tough. He needs the ball 20-25 times or we are calling a bad game

 

[TarheelHuskerFan_rivals]

For not being a power back he’s really good at twisting and finding ways to get a couple extra yards on the way down

Imagine if our OL could block a little better.

I’m sure he isn’t being over worked during the week.
Mozee only had 3 carries for 28 yards.

Be nice to see him get a few more carries.

His size is a limiting factor. It would be nice to have a 220 lb battering ram as a changeup. If EJ gets injured we’re screwed. Nelson clocked a guy on one of his runs then had that stupid 15 yard penalty on special teams and I didn’t see him again.

Yeah Mozee seems useable. Get him a touch or 2 more.

Our OL does run block fairly well. Its the pass blocking thats an issue. Dana needs to understand that the formula to win with this team is what we saw vs NW. Heavy run, good special teams and hope our defense can hold up.

Our RBs have to dodge 2-3 defenders before they make it to the LOS on a third of our runs. I wouldn't call that good blocking. Johnson is doing well despite the OL.

Do you watch any other football? For 90%+ of the teams in college and the NFL that’s the norm. The hope is to average 4+ yards per carry which for the most part EJ has been doing. You do realize that Tom’s teams punted at times right?

EJ's so good he can lead a horse to water, AND MAKE IT DRINK!

Zero push on short yardage, been waiting for a bootleg in that situation with Harburg.

 

[Jpr95x]

I can’t think of the last time we ran a naked bootleg

Sometimes he gets the handoff and has multiple guys in his face immediately. Hes just so talented at making guys miss. The line play is just terrible

 

[SuperBigFan69]

I am not sure if you can be leading the conference in rushing AND have an OL that is horrible at run blocking.

 

[skin-tight]

Barry Sanders did

EJ ain’t Barry Sanders.

The coaches also hope that their QB can get about 3 seconds on passing plays, and the best our OL can do is 1.2 seconds. The line sucks at blocking all-around. Any yards that our RB get are 97% individual effort.

How can you say we only give Dylan 1.2 seconds when the stats say he averages holding the ball OVER 4 seconds on drop backs?
