Fwiw DB said this morning that he felt like they didn't need to take another RB. He was looking at the numbers though I think most of us are looking at production.

Nelson
Mozee
Ives
Williams
Booth

DB also said he would be good without getting another QB.

Colandrea
Lateef
Soukup
Longval

Mainly bring it up because DB and Rhule think along the same line on these kinds of things.
That qb lineup after the first 2 is brutal, especially when it looks like they are trending to running more.
 
This one makes absolutely no sense if EJ was worth a shit he would have him all but wrapped up
I think if Pat and Matt told Barthel we want Cam Edwards but we don’t want too pay him what he’s worth then there’s not much for Barthel to do. And it sounds like they’re not really valuing the RB position this year which is odd after watching EJ carry the offense

One time a reporter asked the Colts coach why the backup QB didn't get any reps, and his answer was "if 18 goes down were fucked, and we don't practice fucked."

That's pretty much where we'll be if the top 2 QBs go down
 
Maybe they believe they can save money on RB to dedicate to other areas. DL for instance. (no real evidence of this BTW)

I don't necessarily agree with it, but maybe that's what they are thinking....idk?

Also, it is still really early. Guys are still going INTO the portal. Are we waiting for some specific RB to enter?
 
Hopefully we’re waiting on Charmar to finish his season?

I doubt it though.
I can get down with Charmar. It makes sense to me if they believe they have good potential in the room - hell, Nelson looked good in the bowl game and got good reports this year - to bring a veteran guy in to wrap it together, especially a bigger body.

I can warm up to it i spose.

Wasnt DB always hyping Wilbon & it didn’t lead to jack squat?

Feel like RBs usually show ya something if they got it & none of our guys have done that yet. Worries me we’re going to depend on new tmart’s legs too much & it’ll lead to old tmart problems

Not a big Barthel guy but the money guys haven't done him any favors. Not enough money to keep Dowdell, or get CharMar last year and now this year Edwards? Not sure what happened with the Parker transfer either.
