THT is not the type of RB to run into 8 man fronts in Grimms power Zone scheme.
He's the type of RB that belongs in a KW style put the pressure on the defense passing attack.
He runs well from passing formations, play action, outlet receiver, and picks up blocks. but He is no Marshall Faulk. But He is a good RB in that role.
Every team runs against 8 man fronts, and open up the passing game. its as fundemental as 1-2-3. If youy can't Cardinal up and force your will, you look exactly like this dead red birds do. Its an age old football fact. it just is.
its the difference between winning and losing, playoffs or last in the NFL in every statistic. The Bean can't do it on 3 carries or even 7 or 14, We have Thunder and lightning. But we see the lightning and wait 3 seasons + for the thunder. its out of harmony with nature.
Marty Schottenheimer would take this same team and win. He would have taken last years team this off season made the adjusments and had us into the playoffs. So would Parcells, Gruden and probably billick.
We should expect nothing less from our HC.
