Much like Joe Flacco’s performance, Justin Forsett‘s was quite horrific. He rushed for just 19 yards on ten carries, coming out to a yard-per-carry average of 1.9. That would be a bad number for anyone, but considering that Forsett had the best yard-per-carry average in the league heading into this game, it makes that stat look even worse.
Due to the poor play of Justin Forsett and the injury that backup running back Lorenzo Taliaferro is currently suffering through, undrafted free agent Fitzgerald Toussaint got some action in this one. He spent the majority of the first 15 weeks on the practice squad, but received four carries in this game, totaling 11 yards.
I’m contemplating as to whether I should start off with two F’s or not. Eh, why not?
Grade: F
