It suggests, perhaps, that he gets stronger as the game goes on, whereas the defense gets weaker. If you'd like to suggest the average is skewed by a long run, then I'd say that he just wears a defense down until he breaks a big one. Either way, the D has to sell-out to stop him.I feel good about your ability to delude yourself.
Hill's YPA only dipped below 4 in one game in the last 8, and it was one the game where he only had 13 carries (against the team that was also ranked 7th in YPC given up).
Hill also did that with so many injuries to our receivers and tight end that it was hard to keep a defense honest, which is something that also has to be taken into consideration.
I feel good about Hill's ability to dominate.
