On the whole the quality of the personnel isn't that different from when the running game was good. Yeah we lost Lauvao but his replacement isn't a huge drop off. We lost Kory but we're upgraded at RG and RT and LeRib isn't terrible.

I think the main issues with the running game are coaching/game plan issues.

Predictable run tendencies, especially on 1st down. Lack of creativity and commitment overall.

I agree 100%. The Oline seems better in overall talent and coaching. Not having a legit blocking TE has freakin hurt. Alfmo is proven, Matt Jones is a solid second option. But the game plan, commitment isn't there.
