Part of the 12 formation with the skill position players we have is that it allows us to run the ball while also having a great passing threat.

You can do that in 11 personnel.

It's funny that people think 12 is magically better at running the ball.
But when 12 doesn't work... people complain that there are too many people in the box and we can't run.

It isn't the formation that makes us run the ball well. It is execution.

You can execute in 12 against the extra defender.
Or you can execute in 11 without the extra defender.

It boils down to blocking and leverage.
