I can't remember who said it, but a few weeks back a defender from another team said they knew when the skins were running. Didn't it really seem that way yesterday too? I mean is it just coincidence that D linemen ended up in the backfield 10+ times?

I would say the jury is still out on Kyle, if Defenses are seeing on film tendencies of how he runs the ball, that's on Kyle. I think he has so few running plays that the D easily sees them & they must be doing something in formations that tips the defense.
