I prefer to view it as I saw it.

When he got the hand-off, he was immediately surrounded by multiple defenders. When the other RB's got the hand-off, they were not immediately surrounded by defenders.

I don't care how or why that kept happening, but it had to stop. Against Dallas he wasn't immediately surrounded by defenders after the hand-off.

I don't know what changed with our blocking, or if anything changed, but when he wasn't surrounded by defenders 3 yards behind the line, he ran as expected.

It should also be noted that our other RB's did indeed struggle behind this O-line this year. He wasn't the only one who had a hard time.
