I mean with the stereotypical run based offense, you'd think we would have done some homework on Pitt and came out running the ball down their throats. I know the run game hasn't been there, but against one of the worst run defenses, why not at least try
I know the 2019 season was special and often those kinds of seasons and stats are impossible to duplicate fully, but since then, we have really strayed from "hammering" the run game. Maybe the league has caught up, but it sure seems to me that when there is a minimal gain or a failed run play, the play calling goes quickly away from it and then stays away from it.
It's impossible to know what this season could have been without injuries and Covid. I just hope that the Oline gets squared away and stays healthy. I think that's essential for anything else to work in this offense. But the not running the ball, even with aged RB's against the 3rd or 4th worst running DEF in the league needs some 'splainin' !
