Well, at least Lacy wasn't so hesitant yesterday. He was hitting the line with more decisiveness than he has been for a long time. Maybe it was the ankle, maybe the weight, maybe the coaches just finally said, "Either you get it going and use that weight to go downhill or you can sit your phat butt on the bench."

 

On KFAN this morning they talked to the Vikes' Robison who said Lacy was a load. Whatever, it was good to see Lacy finally lace 'em up and take it to the Dline.

I'd be interested to see the splits on Lacy's runs with and without a lead FB. I honestly don't know which approach was better, but at least a lead FB can adjust and hit a guy that's gotten some penetration off the OL.

Kuhn had a season high 26 snaps on Sunday (if my count was right). Lacy either had Kuhn or a TE or a few times Walker as an extra blocker on all but 3 or 4 runs, again by my count on the re-watch.

Thanks. That seems much higher than some recent games. I'd rather see Kuhn or Ripkowski out there than Richard Rodgers. It gives them a lot more flexibility and makes them stronger running between the tackles.

And Walker didn't help much, those were some of the worst runs.
