Why does Sanders never seem to get caught in the backfield?

Unlike SB? Is his vision just better or is it because the D focuses on SB?

 

[LaJolla Lion]

Did you not notice what they were doing to SB today? Honest question as it was clear as day.

...or are you just blind?

Or is it both?

There isn’t a lot of data to go on but it seems he gets outside by design. MAybe they don’t want him in traffic with his fumbling issues of the past. It is hard to say with only a carry or 2 a game. However I would like to see Barkley used more like this.

IDK maybe because there weren't 3 RU players following him.
But thats just off the top of my head.
A better question would be. Geez how did Trace make all those nice runs and score that TD? Or how is that the TE is so wide open over the middle of the field?

Because you touched yourself.

You seem angry. Did your momma not love you? Its an honest question. Go sleep it off.

Well there were no holes for Sanders either, but he seemed to instinctively take it to the outside right away instead of running into the clogged hole. Just an observation. Nothing to get angry over.

I'm asking one too. Are you blind? Because you sure as hell don't know what you're looking at.

Dear lord.....this actually made me laugh out loud.

You sound like you have a lot in common with Harvey Weinstein? Good for you.

Go sleep it off. You might not be as angry when you wake up.

So u just don't see what is going on.

Angry isn't the right word.

Dumbfounded....but not angry.

Why don't you call Franklin on Monday and submit your resume?

Thanks "Coach" . In case you didn't know, this is a conversation board. If you can't be civil, don't read.
I noticed there are no holes for Sanders either, but he runs differently. And yes you are angry by the tone of your responses.

Well in most instances the Jet sweep is intended to go outside.
I guess you are right on his other 2 carries.

So.....one human runs differently than another human.

Got it.

So you can't even fathom the notion that Sanders might have better vision or instincts when taking the handoff. Ok Thanks for being an ass instead of adding something insightful.

Sanders has demonstrated that ability to bounce it outside from the very first carry at PSU. It bodes well for the future, especially if the OL matures with him next year. Could be dynamite.

 

[dmdpsu]

LOL

Showing your age.

 

[ThePennsyOracle]

Then that makes two of us.

Glad you finally admitted it. You're maturing.
