- Better play Tui and KVA a lot. [NT] - DiscoRick - 11:06pm 10/11/25

How about we work on the 4th and 1 or 2 running game ? - OklahomaIrishman - 8:54pm 10/11/25 (6) [View All]

Unpopular opinion? Price should be RB1 - MarkHarman - 8:48pm 10/11/25 (13) [View All]
- He's good but not as good as Love by a longshot. [NT] - THEISMANCARR - 11:28am 10/15/25
- Love is dancing too much and looking for the highlight play. They'll get him straightened out and - Clem - 11:28am 10/12/25
- The early runs are always the toughest, and the late runs are where you get more yards - jrdjr84 - 11:15am 10/12/25
- Definitely. I hate waiting the first few series for our running game to start when Price goes in. [NT] - NedoftheHill - 9:17pm 10/11/25
  - Price 7.4 YPC, Love 5.4. That's a significant difference [NT] - MarkHarman - 9:39pm 10/11/25
- Both are good. But Love is a way better inside runner. And they do key on him. - DiscoRick - 9:07pm 10/11/25
  - Disagree. He waits too long, and then leaves his feet, allowing an easy tackle. [NT] - NedoftheHill - 9:16pm 10/11/25
    - The hurdling crap has to stop. [NT] - WoodstockIrish - 8:41am 10/12/25
    - Price puts the ball on the ground. [NT] - DiscoRick - 9:22pm 10/11/25
      - I hear you. And that cannot be ignored. But Price would soften up defenses for Love. - NedoftheHill - 9:24pm 10/11/25
- They're keying on Love. Different styles. Love is a better inside runner and hammer. - DiscoRick - 9:05pm 10/11/25
- Re: Unpopular opinion? Price should be RB1 - WVIrish1004 - 8:56pm 10/11/25
