[size=13pt]No doubt about it: Jaguars aim to run against Vikings[/size]

The Vikings are super run-stoppers, but Jacksonville has a great tandem in Fred Taylor and Maurice Jones-Drew.

No, their passing game is nearly as bad as ours.

They're playing to their strengths.

its not too bad of a idea.

Maurice is a very good running back. and he is hard to bring down

I bet people thought it would be stupid to run Warrick Dunn up the middle on us

and MJD and fred Taylor have done what so far this season?

They rush

On every play I hope the other team runs, it gives me hope the vikings can get a stop. Last week was frustrating because they had success. I still hope the jags try to run because more often than not teams that do get stuffed.
Also, and this suprised me, the vikings D has forced the most fumbles in the nfl with 9. If the Jags run early and often and the Vikes stop it gives them a chance to win.
