Jeremy Hill far ahead of his production last year

Plus the percentage of snaps is meaningless because it appears even the WORST rbs in the league carry the ball less from the shotgun formation than from under center.

Here is a really simple job for you Brad.  Show the percentage of times the best RBs in the league run from the shotgun and compare it to the number of times the worst RBs do.  I'll bet there is no proof that running more from under center makes a RB more efficient.

You simply have an idea in your head that does not match reality.  Running Hill more with the QB under center will not improve his production.  It doesn't work with any other RB and it won't work with Hill.

Because doing something in spurts is more effective than doing it regularly because the defense isn't prepared for it and it's a "wrinkle," if you will.  

That is why the percentage of snaps is meaningless.  

My stats weren't about the talent of the running backs but more just about the reality of the situation.

It seems to work a lot with other backs starting with the Qb under center and it would work for Hill because of his running style.
