I have talked to some people who do much better film study/review than I do and honestly a lot can just get chalked up to players making good one on one tackles/getting lucky and getting the fingertip that slows down the carrier just enough.

Also yes the RPO's drastically change downfield blocking from WR's so that probably has an effect too.





That would make a lot of sense because like you said, it just feels odd that we haven't. We've broken past the 1st level a ton, and these guys are all excellent backs at breaking tackles and hitting the jets. It just......hasn't happen as much.

Well good, hopefully that means we saved up all our opponents missed tackle luck for the next 2 games.

Tbh I don’t think we have an explosive runner either. Our guys are great but they don’t have great speed at all.

Great convo happening in here!

Our run game has been steady not crazy good but good enough. Like you’ve said, RPO can open up huge run lanes and jacobs, and the Harris twins did well on up the gut calls. And frankly against Oklahoma we could try out the two back set with one HB and TE blocking and make some huge gains while crushing the clock.
