Not sure if its him or the plays being called. Almost never see a running play to the outside, generally there up the middle and with a bad O line that means no running lanes for the RB.

with the tackles we got right now.. I don't know if tossing the ball outside would do the bears any good

Forte is running just as timid as he did last year. Taylor's run harder, but it doesn't matter w/ no offensive line.

Hard to run when your O-Line creates no push or gets blown up in the backfield. Plus w/ the passing game not being feared w/ the 99.99% chance Cutler gets sacked, it's hard to blame Forte IMO

I think Forte is playing good with the OL. He's good at catching and he has shown it. Also, he's good when he has open field.

What runningback would be able to run well consistently with this line? Please, someone give me one.

That's too easy....figure it out, genius.

JKJK, there's no RB that performs good with a bad OL. That's the obvious answer, lol.

Yes, the O-Line sucks. But, he runs like a god damn horses ass.

Exactly. I know I'm not the only one noticing this. Forte isn't running with any purpose at all. He just tip toes behind the lineman and gets tackled. The few runs he's broken (mostly in the Carolina game) he had holes a semi could be driven through.

Just look at the couple of nice runs Chester Taylor had Sunday. He looked like he was running for his dinner and the results were great.

The offensive line is still fucking trash though.

Because he's a good RB playing behind a shittastic OL.

He is getting a pass because he barely gets the chance to run the ball and he has a terrible OL.
