Mo-Mo vs. Shaun

Ok, let's put it out on the table. Maurice Morris is not the answer to Hawk Fan's Prayers. Yes, the career backup is attractive to uproarious hawk fans, simply because he is a backup. A change from the abomonation that is Shaun Alexander. I mean, it's not like Morris has been averaging 6 yards a carry while Alexander has been averaging 2. 4 carries for 15 yards isn't excactly the most stellar performance in the history of the world. It quite Frankly is upgrading from a F to a D. The stituation is obvious now. Were gonna need to get a new running back in the first round. Either that or an Offensive Lineman. The Hawks, or any team for that matter is going to get anywhere in the playoffs with out a running game. It is not that long before we face a half assed pass defense or face some snow away from home and we can't get hasselbeck throwing for 300 yards. We can't put it all on Alexander though. I hate to say it, but I think we need some changes at the OL. I think that will start with a new LG in the first or second round. And, a new Left tackle within the next two years. Some may echo, "Why replace a solid Left Tackle and not to mention the leader of the OL with a rookie?" Well, the reason is, he is simply making the pro bowl because of two and three years ago.
Hawk Fans, we need to let go of the Idea that Maurice Morris will be the answer to our Running Problems. Plain and simple.
