We averaged only three yards per carry, a paltry sum for an OC like KS who loves to throw the ball off play action. Unless he's willing to show a total commitment to the running game, play action is of limited value because there's no running game of substance for the defense to concern itself with.
Our oline is not strong enough to drop back forty times a game in pass protection, the running game has to become a staple for this offense to run smoothly and effectively.
