Eleven Warriors

I'm slowly starting to realize I was wrong. Hyde has been impressive, so has rod smith other than the fumble.

Hope Hyde leaves that "eatin cereal" stuff alone the rest of the season... that stuff belongs North of the Ohio Turnpike.  Other than that, Hyde has been playing well.  I hope Urban does not give up on giving Smith chances to spell Hyde, due to fumbles....those 2 (Hyde and Smith) had me juiced watching the game last night.  I know you can't fumble, though. 

I think he might just reach the 1,000 yard mark...maybe.

Toot-toooooooot!

296 of which was in the past 2 games though! It is rolling!

How about that horrible Hyde vision now? That guy made some amazing plays that would have been dead. Hyde is coming into his own and Rod Smith is becoming a capable backup. A bit crossed on whether I want Hall to come back or not. 

Nice to see Hyde get (slightly) more yards that Braxton for once!  Of course, if Braxton hadn't been tackled for loss so many times last night, Braxton probably still would have been our rushing leader.  Still, I'm glad we're starting to see a bit more parity in the run game between quarterback and running back.

Here's the deal straight up - There is a direct correlation between Hydes recent stats and the vastly improved offense. Yes the O line is playing a role, but I say Hyde is the #1 back regardless of when Halls healthy...no need to rock the boat now.

I still love Rod Smiths potential at #2, but he did fumble again last night...wish he could get that fixed once & for all.

Hyde yo' kids, Hyde yo' wife, Hyde yo' husband, Carlos is running all over everybody out there

Earlier this season I made a few comments that basically said I'd take Bell or Hyde any day of the week. I am not so sure I can stick to that comment. Carlos Hyde is a straight up beast!  He is big/fast and knows how to hit a hole. The last two games he has honestly looked like one of the better backs in the country!

Lets not forget that Urban didnt play Hall in the spring game because he had nothing left to prove. Hall is good and I would like to see him out there along with Hyde. Hyde being the feature back with Hall playing a more versatile role. 

Hyde was definitely a Beast last night, and in reality has been for the last 3 games. I look forward to see how he continues in the second half of this season. I have been on his bandwagon since Nebraska last year and I am happy to see him healthy and getting his chance on the field.

Hyde has played great in the last two games.  I like the hard yards he's gained but I really like the fact he's breaking outside closed lanes and beating some people. Can he stay healthy? Can he keep up performances similar to the last two weeks? I don't know. I think he'll go over a 1000 if he does. I want to get on his bandwagon! 

I've been on the bandwagon since Michigan State.  I know there are a lot of fans of Rod Smith's ability, and I count myself among them, but you've got to feed the beast that Carlos has grown into.  Keep giving him the ball!

I'm happy Hyde's started to make people miss a little more, as opposed to trying to run them over. The one check down TD pass was great, and I finally saw him able to make someone miss in open space.

I currently have 1 foot on the C.Hyde bandwagon, that TD run he had called down at the 1 was a perfect example of him doing everything I said he isn't very good doing.
