System? Or playcalling? Or how the team is built?

Its no secret our O-line pass protects much better than it run blocks. Maybe that is "system", but I think thats more "style". Maybe we're talking about the same thing but just using different terms.

A combination of all of that. My original wording actually had all three terms in it. So I do think we're on the same page.

I do however believe our line is very strong at run blocking... we just aren't doing it with consistency. With everything, it's all about rythmn and we aren't allowing them to get in their groove. We know this line can run block... it's the same one from last year. Unfortunately for Ingram, this game is all about opportunity. Yes, I think he can be a 1,000 rusher here... he just won't have opportunity to do so.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.

Yeah, exactly, and what I've been saying about it, is that with the playcalling we have, when things start to go wrong, or the minute the momentum starts to slip, or you get behind on the scoreboard early in a game, sometimes the best thing you can do as a team is just get some running rhythm going and CALM EVERYBODY THE **** DOWN and get some confidence back. And for whatever reason our team does not seem to be able to do that with the running game. It just melts down into these really panicky looking 3 and outs.
