I hate to see a guy go out like that, but better now than in week 7 if Gio should get dinged up and we would have needed Anderson to fill in.

I blame the offensive line. Every time a runner tries to run straight up the gut its an injury risk. They are not creating order out there. It's all disorder. Chaos. Higher risk of injury. We need to get our offensive line fixed. That's what's going to hold us back this year. From what I've seen in the pre-season, we can not run the ball worth a damn. We can pass it well and get the ball in space well. But we haven't been able to balance it with a solid run game. I hope it get's better, but that's the one dark point about the pre-season for me.

Oh, and what a talent Rodney is. Hope he recovers quick. Reminds me of the injury Adrian Peterson had with the vikings. Defense got good penetration on both sides, then someone came out of nowhere and hit him from an angle. Poor offensive line play. Hopefully this get's fixed in time.
