I know that's not your point. Just saying how absurdly reductionist it is to say that injuries are our chief problem.

That baffles me too, I want to say our C and LG play is garbage and that no TEs on our roster can block but that seems like a cop out explanation

No you can say that, and you would be 100% right. The "no push" in the middle in the run game kills this team. Also a general lack of experienced talent at RB is another.

Im with quake. I thought it could be chalked up to no interior push and no blocking TEs ... but it does seem like a cop out. We have 2 studs in Trent and Scherff and Moses is above average. We should have been able to scheme/coach up/help an average LG and C.

I always thought RBs were just a product of O line and scheme and you dont need a top end RB .... but idk.

Baffling that it has been going on for years now. We have a great O line coach, some O line studs ... wth is going on?
