This is EXACTLY the key. I saw on some show (can't remember which one) in where, if you STICK AP early in the game (I don't know what a 'stick' is described, but imagine a Sean Taylor hit) his yards per carry after that are something like 2.0 or less.
It was a crazy stat, and they showed examples of people hitting him hard. He just gets frustrated and stops running hard.
