Burkhead

I wish Hill ran more like Earl Campbell or Corey Dillon and just ran over folks early and often, even if he thinks he can make them miss.  Break their will and desire to want to try to tackle him later in the game.  It appears for example a 6'0 195 pound defensive back is just as aggressive going after Hill in the 3rd and 4th quarters as he is in the 1st because he knows he can be the aggressor.  Hill will likely try to shake him, not try to truck him.  One of the reasons teams have a bigger back is to wear those guys down physically over the course of the game.  Have them making "matador" type tackles later in the game.  I don't think the Bengals are getting that from Hill, regardless if he does break a few runs here and there.  I think he would actually break more of those longer runs by running over a few more people a little more often.

If anyone has the Eagles game on video, watch the play right before Hill's TD.  It starts to the left and is defended well.  There is no hole. Hill cuts it back to the right and has a straight line to the end zone.  One guy there to beat.  Either the OLB or a DB. Hill tried to juke back inside and gets tackled.  I would have loved to see Hill lower his shoulder and attack the defender.  REGARDLESS of if he scored or not.
Yes! YES! and YES! The RB coach needs to "explain" how a big back is supposed to run over defenders, not around them!!!
