JBandJoeyV Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Do you guys think if Chris Perry was healthy we would have done a lot better running the ball against the colts? The colts seem to get beat bad by the fast elusive type RBs like Jones-Drew rather than grinders like Rudi. I think that Perry actually played pretty well against the colts last year if I remember right. Not that this really matters since he is made of glass, but what do you guys think?

Guest Bengals1181 Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Do I think we would have won? Probably not with the gameplan we had. I do however think Perry and more of Watson would have been gashed them with their speed. You saw what McNeal did, just on one play. It was only 7 yards, but he burned a few of them on pure speed.

Guest mongoloido Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 I think Perry would have had a good game, had he played. Aside from being an extra set of hands to catch, I think Perry has the speed, and vision, to bounce some of those runs outside. There were some moster patches of turf he could have gotten to that Rudi just couldn't/wouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlantNGo Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Yes! Rudi missed an easy cutback for a TD on the first drive. The Colts D was overpursing and getting to Rudi in the 2nd half. Perry would have burned them long on a cutback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishBengal Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 I agree. We lack a decent change of pace threat to compliment Rudi, someone who can burn on the outside. Sorry Chris but you're just too brittle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheBeaverHunter Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 I am not fully sold on Rudi. I am sure this is going to get some people fired up, but he isn't a threat and he is averaging 3.8 YPC this year. I would love to have MJD, Moroney, Norwood, Gore, and about 6 other backs instead of Rudi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll bang, and get 3-20 yards... but he's not that guy who can really break one for 50+, is he? Frank Gore is a beast... Seems like a decent fellow too.

JBandJoeyV Posted December 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Rudi is solid, but having a compliment like Perry would be clutch. He would also be clutch in situations like last night where carson didnt have time to throw cause we could dish it to Perry and he could have a shot at getting the first.

Lawman Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 The cutbacks were there all day long, just like the holes up the middle however we decided (for some unknown reason) to start running wide against a speed defense. It's not rocket science, the Jags players are huge and essentially smashed mouth the colts. We were doing it early in the game and stopped. Perry would of went off on a team like the Colts; just like he did last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudi is not the flashiest runner, no, but I would count him among the league's best. He's tough, rarely injured, he rarely fumbles ...3.8 yards a carry isn't bad by any means, especially considering the disheveled O-Line he's been behind. He may not be the most fun to watch, but he makes the tough runs. I would've loved to have had Perry in there for a coupla runs, though. If he (or Watson) would've been there to get the ball more, I doubt we'd be talking about Rudi right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwing Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Don't get me wrong ----------- I like Rudi. I have not one but two #32 jersies. I very likely had one of the first Rudi jersies but ------- Rudi is a plow horse. He lacks the speed to run outside, he is a non factor in the passing game and his blocking is average at best. He is a very good power runner between the tackles. First ---- I am not nor will I ever be a Michigan fan but------- A healthy Chris Perry can get outside, can catch, can run inside. A healthly Chris Perry would have assumed the role as starting RB for the Bengals along time ago. He has more speed, more talent. With Perry we would do more draws, screens, middle screens, counters, cut backs etc.... All help to slow the rush against agressive defenses. This would benefit the line ----- especially against smaller, faster overly agressive defenses. Nothing against Rudi but he is very limited in what he can do. To his credit, what he does, he does do very well. I said it then, I'll say it now. You DO NOT use first round draft picks to get 3rd down backs !!! Here's to a healthy return with no more injuries ......... Not likely but hoping . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The colts would have had a headache trying to keep perry in check...a fast elusive back. Kenny Watson was our leading reciever. Perry would have broken 100 yards recieving and probably 100 running..

Not saying Rudi is fat fuck bettis or as good or worse than, not saying Perry is as good as LT ------- just saying the styles are similar. Plain and simply--- What Rudi does he does very well. A healthy Perry has the ability to do more. A healthy Perry is a better fit for this style of offense. Especially with our current O-line. However, the argument can be made that Rudi fits in just fine with our projected starting opening day lineman. Too bad we do not have that oline.
