Walker is not a short yardage Back.

[Fade]

How many times does Pete need to see it before he let's Dallas run in those situations?

 

[renofox]

Not yet, but more reps means he'll get there eventually.

He's a rookie.

Dallas wasnt going through that goaline setup either not with that playcall

More Pete bashing!

FIRE PETE!

Run blocking was off on where he ran.

Maybe he missed the call, but you are correct. Cards had that shut down and it’s impossible to blame the ball carrier.

Imo

 

[Maelstrom787]

Hmm.

What sample of play are you going off of to make this declaration?

Also, are players unchanging entities that don't develop over time?

Its that triangle thing, fade, Jody, and Pete.

Only 32 guys in the whole world get to be HC of an NFL team.

Very few have ever had the success that PC has experienced.

I can’t bash the guy, and certainly can’t do a better job than he has.

I know a certain poster who (thinks he) could.

I know right, we have several actually

If Pete was 1/2 as good as .net thinks he is, he'd run that in himself....

 

[Fade]

Dallas hits it up in there and might've only gained a yard. Still better than Walker bouncing it and losing 3.

Consistently Walker shows he doesn't have the size to be effective in those situations.

He has literally 1 other rush from within the 5 yard line on the entire season

Ok fair enough.

Who would you replace Pete with if you could make the call?

Seriously, show us the bounty of data you've got here

Carries inside the 5 yard line are a stat that's tracked closely due to fantasy implications, and Walker has had literally ONE this season prior to this game, and this is his rookie season.

Either the "consistently" is complete bullshit, or you're just making stuff up man

At 5’9” 211# he’s big enough. It’s his dancing style that’s the issue…boom or bust.

 

[Maelstrom787]

The reverse jinx works!

 

[sutz]

Earlier he bounced one that got stopped on a 2d and short. Next play he went vertical like should and it worked.

He's learning.

Schneider's got substantially more mass than Carroll, and his center of gravity is low. I think Hurtt could knock some guys over too. Maybe Hurtt as a blocking fullback and Schneider as the halfback. Anyway, either one of those two would be a better choice than Carroll to run the ball in a short-yardage situation.
