If the qb can run, of course. And TA is a powerful runner who can be very effective.

Use Armstrong's strength.

Makes sense with Armstrong as starter &. Bush as back up. Switch to QB pro set in 2017.

Depends on who is at QB. Obrien, then no. If he is returning senior then YES.

With a talent like TA, limiting his passing, and his reads, should be tantamount for this coaching staff. Their jobs depend on at least 8 wins this coming year. That depends on limiting TA's interceptions.

I felt this past season with the new OC he tried to make our team into something that were not, a pass team, 60%! That's not who this team is or past teams in our history. The running game is the HEART of Neb. HUSKER, you run to set up the passing game not the other way around.

It makes the offense so much harder to defend, especially if you have someone that can run like TA..

Running the ball is what Armstrong excels at and it gives a plus one blocking advantage to the offense. Win win if you ask me.

What ever helps us win. If passing is not better then more running.

No, keep his running limited! Is it me or did anyone watch the UCLA game.

With their schedule, they might be able to make it this year.

They are as much a potential playoff team as Arizona State and Indiana were last year. There is no harm is fans dreaming big. A team with a recent history like Nebraska is going to put it together this year. Why not the Huskers?

Just wishful thinking but I believe the talent is there. We will need a few breaks but it is possible.

They have a schedule that gets to the year 3 Matt Rhule 10 wins. If they can hang with Penn St. then they could be in the conversation as a 10-2, 11-1 team.

So tired of delusional preseason talk. How about a winning conference record and a bowl win.

NU has not been able to recruit top notch players. The media has led fans to believe that 3 star players can be molded into 4 and 5 stars. That dog don’t hunt?

We simply don't have the level of talent needed to reach the playoff. Achieving more wins that last year is a more realistic goal.

Anything can happen, but up until now, Rhule hasn't shown that he can get the job done. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't by the hype. Show me on the field.

They haven’t done anything on the field to warrant that expectation. But there is nothing wrong with the team setting it as a goal and striving to reach that goal.

Immanuel Kant would say no, but he had a very strict definition of reason. I can only imagine him pooh-poohing the Huskers because Rhule is compulsed to pass the ball on clear running downs. Afraid to actually hand the ball to the fullback on 3rd and 1. And instead is in the shotgun. NO THEY KANT!

Thry’ll be better this year, but I think 9-3 or 8-4 are likely which keeps them out of contention this year. My hope is that by year 4 under Rhule will finally get them ibto the playoff picture

They need to prove they belong. Still to ,many players on the squad that played on bad teams and don't know how to win yet.
