Run Gap Responsibity vs the Read option

Pardon me for not being the most knowledgeable when it comes to the read - option. We have been getting killed on this for the better part of two seasons now. I hear a lot of people hear giving Junya a lot of the blame for what occurred running wise in Seattle. My question is this. If his run gap responsibility was to stop the running back at all cost. Shouldn't the responsibility of the QB fall to the person, or persons who is behind him to pick the " option " up..... I saw Hawthorne sit idle on a number of plays where I thought he could have come in right after Wilson decided to keep the ball was best....

Again I don't think I am as frustrated as most in here right now because I counted this as a loss in the beginning of the season. In my opinion we were in best case a 12 - 4, 11-5 type squad... We have done nothing to disprove that so I think im fine.....
Here's what I thought we got in a nutshell in Seattle.... Everybody here remembers the Vikings Championship game and so did they back and forth, high scoring.... but how many of you remember the next time we played them I think it was a defensive struggle, it may have even been a 13 - 7 type game..... We won, we just went about it differently, and they just weren't ready for us to beat them like that..... That's what Seattle did to us... We were so focused on not letting Lynch beat us that we totally forgot that they had a QB too.

You shouldn't throw stones if you live in a glass house, and if have a glass jaw you should watch your mouth..... cause I'll break your face!!! -50 cent
