I was shocked at the end of the colts game we trotted him out there as a fullback. We gained zero yards. Yea we were probably definitely running, but cmon man could you telepath where you were running any easier.

Definitely disappointed in our ability to run the clock out still.

I think that has more to do with Koyack being out than Alualu. I could be wrong. I wouldn't mind Jack getting some snaps there though

**DragonFury** · 10-04-2016, 10:28 AM

And? Having a fullback in there was the right personnel and the best guy available at the time was Alualu.

Are you talking strictly from the Fullback perspective...or also from a DL perspective?

Either way, I disagree.

Have you seen my baseball?

He had a sack in the game. Wrong week to call him a bum

Go Jags!
*To stay up for atleast 2 years 3/6/17
2016 draft players I think will be good

On the Fournette train, will be best back of his class 3/6/17
Lattimore please, Lockdowns on both sides would be nice
Engram at TE and the MJD clone Samaje Perine

Alualu got a sack, no?

C'mon....

HURRICANE!!! · 10-04-2016, 10:44 AM

Opponents need to gameplan for Alualu's receiving skills. He's kind of like a bigger version of our other offensive weapon (OW) Denard Robinson.

Alualu played well in Odrick'S place. He's a good roleplayer. Just wish he wasn't picked top 10 because otherwise, we'd be happy with him.

No commercial messages in sigs

People really need to quit pinning Alualu's drafted spot on him...It wasn't his fault.

Maybe that is the sad thing. Right personnel, debatable. We play to not lose. Play to win. Again we were 3rd and 13 after the first two plays on that drive.

Did I say anything about his snaps on defense? No.

Thundersnow · 10-04-2016, 10:58 AM

While I agree it doesn't make sense to play him at FB he hasn't been terrible on defense

Then your thread should be about the play calling, not about Alualu being in there.

What? Because they plugged him in a FB? Wasn't there a topic last week on this bi-polar board about how we should sign a FB? Like it or not, Alualu is one of the most consistent DE/DT on this team and has done everything asked of him well. Let go of his draft position. This board makes me want to wash the stupid off every time I visit.

:yes:

The Alualu experiment has been done. He was inactive for the first 2 games and is only back due to Jared Odricks injury.

There are a lot more pressing needs, Alualu might be last on the list.

I saw that. Think I spilled my coffee.

Is that 1 career sack?

Sometimes I wonder if some of you actually watch/listen to the games.

Running the ball was playing to win. There was about 1:30 on the clock, run the ball twice to drain their timeouts, then run it again to drain the clock. That's the difference between defending a 3 point lead with clots having to drive 45 yards in 25 seconds with no TO's or defending with the clots having to drive 45 yards with 1:10 and a timeout or two. The latter is tough but do-able, the former is desperation time.

Alualu did a good job against an OL with 3 rookies on it.
