We'll see how Burkhead holds up, over the course of an entire season.  As for Hill, you think he forgot what he's good at?  C'mon, his rookie year, he was hitting the hole like a rocket, taking a few of them to the house.  He's been consistently playing banged up, holes just aren't there for him like they were in '14, not to mention he's been trying to do things he's not good at (dancing in the backfield).

I hold that if you're going to predictably line up, tell the world that we're running straight at you, you ought to have the horses up front prepared to move some people.  It's really very simple, the game plan and the OL coaching philosophy =/=.  The execution in blocking just isn't there to put a straight ahead runner back there, and expect to be repeatedly successful in moving the chains.

Where does that whole narrative come from anyway?  Seems like something Two Yard apologists are fond of saying.
