They averaged 5 yards a pop, while I don't think they "ran all over us" but still, the run D needs to be tightened up.

Exactly, it wasn't that the total yardage was obscene, it was that they could run it whenever they wanted. Fortunately, they were less interested in running than trying to pile up meaningless stats for their rookie wr.

I did not notice the yards per run but it seem as like the past couple of years we let teams move the ball but when they get around the 30 yard line our D plays really tight. Not sure if that is by design but it is a trend.
