Our running backs carried the 31 times for 166 yards vs the Dolphins. That doesn’t mean that every running play worked. We actually had eight runs that were stopped for no gain or behind the LOS. To balance that we had five carries that gained 18 or more yards. As you will see, on all of those we pulled at least one offensive lineman.
For those who don’t know what I’m talking about, pulling an offensive lineman means that the offensive lineman turns immediately after the snap and moves laterally behind the other offensive lineman to turn up in the whole or to trap a defender who was left unblocked by design.
