That number is somewhat deceiving. I think it was Bank's who wrote the article but the average gain per attempt was relatively high (in the 5-6 yard range) during the first quarter or so. Even Miami was averaging over six in the first half. However, once your down by a million, who's still running the ball.

Truthfully, given their leads, I am surprised that they are as low as number nine. I would have expected better as teams pretty much abandon the run and pass to try and catch up.
