It’s no secret they didn’t have any confidence in the run game. They did have confidence in Joe moving the offense in the short passes and his efficiency . They have changed to more man blocking than zone blocking. They are using what Jake is comfortable with and what they think his strengths are.
That's all I'm saying. Is they changed things up to help Jake out. I think those same things are helping the whole team. But that was another thing that seemed to drive us all crazy. The short passes to Chase just didn't not work at all. They would only occasionally get any positive yards. I can't understand why we stuck with them so long. Any underlying positive of Joe's injury will be that hopefully those stay in the trash where they belong. No way those were more productive than the run game.
