Him hitting holes has never been the issue. BJGE can hit a hole. It's finding creases/vision at the second level. There isnt a second gear. The Browns looked like shyt on Sunday, but we're going to act like we havent seen Trent enough to know he doesnt have those traits of an explosive player?
Predict Trent Richardson aka 'Struggle Cuts' stats in Indy?

I've seen him be explosive when the line gets a semblance of push. I think you're trying too hard now.

74 carries isn't nearly enough but 100 is plenty?
Trent has only played 2 games in his 2nd year. Can you at least admit, as mediocre as Trent's rookie year was it shyts all over CJ's rookie year?
Keep in mind, if a RB isn't getting on the field, there's probably a reason for that.
Point is, it's too early to tell.
We'll see. A change of scenery Im sure will do him well. Him having a 2010 BJGE type season is what he'll be imo.

Sure it was better. The Browns drafted Trent to be the offense. The Bills already had a good player in Freddie.
New regime steps in with the Browns, and we're basically saying "this was the 3rd pick in the draft last year?" They flipped him for a first. If Lombardi f's up the picks then we can kill the Browns. But losing Richardson isnt a jump off the cliff type of scenario like the media is making it out to be.

I woulda said the same thing if the Bills traded Spiller 2 games into his 2nd season. And I'd be feeling
right now if they actually did that.
Yeah I don't see a downside for the Browns. They weren't going anywhere with TRich and to be honest, the NFL is going away from the three down back anyway(AP is an anomaly). They had the chance to recoup a 1st.... why not?
Speaking of the Browns, when was the last QB they had that wasn't
? Bernie Kosar? 
They gotta fix the QB position then everything else figures itself out.Yeah I don't see a downside for the Browns. They weren't going anywhere with TRich and to be honest, the NFL is going away from the three down back anyway(AP is an anomaly). They had the chance to recoup a 1st.... why not?

<--- Cleveland Browns winning that many, boi!
What does Spiller, O Line, etc... have to do with Richardson's lack of burst and ability to turn the corner?
Do people think that aspect of Richardson's game is going go magically appear in Indy when he's never shown it in 300 carries as a Brown?
The blueprint is out on Trent and it's not about stacking the box. It's playing him to within the tackles with the belief he doednt have the speed or vision to cut to the outside to turn the corner.
That's why there is no "push" from the offensive line. Dude can't turn the corner in the league.

Damn and here I was thinking you needed more than 2 guys to play on the offensive line
This^
Indy's o-line, while bad, is apparently better at run blocking than pass protecting based on what they've shown this season. They're not great at either though.
