I forgot about this, yeah he basically saved our running game.

As good of an RB as Tuten was, he doesn't break out without the changes Brent Davis recommended in our run scheme.

I think he had plenty of talent to work with.

Nowhere close to the same talent as what we had in 2005.

My impression of Bowen was he tried to make players run his system instead

Thank You...

That could be part of it, but it doesn't explain

Agree 100% on his inability to adjust in-game**
