Re: Saunder's running game is a bit different than Gibbs, but it works better

Saunders running game is a lot less predictable than Gibbs, back in the 80's we never fooled anyone with the run they all knew it was coming but no one could stop it, that's not the case any longer. We now need deception in the running game via the draw plays, and shovel passes, etc. Saunders running game is designed to take full advantage of Portis's abilities, where as Gibbs running game was designed to end Portis's career prematuraly.
