You (or no one else) have no fricking clue why Robinson didn't get carries early in the season... The fact some of our fans won't give the staff the benefit of the doubt on this is odd. To think people, who have millions of dollars at stake, would play "favorites" to their own detriment is just stupid.

This shite isn't x-box... just because player A had more talent doesn't automatically mean they should play over player B... there are dozens of variables that factor in.

The Gus plays favorites thing is bogus and I don't know why people continue to spout off about it.

Well said...

The ones that make this claim are the ones that suited for games and never played. They have been blaming it on favoritism ever since.

I thought Lashlee's explanation was pretty good when he said Robinson does not block well in pass situations. We have no idea how banged up he was or how he was at practice. Sure he has talent, but that does not mean he is the best guy to be on the field at any given time.

I hope he comes back because I think next year he could be a break out star, but you cannot blame any running back for going to the NFL ASAP, they blink and their shelf life in the NFL is over half way over.
