The positive runs from Gio and Jeremy have been the same way, and therein lies the problem.  There are 11 guys on defense, and the back can't be expected to take on all of them.  The line has to do their part to ensure the designed hole will be there for the back, not make the back improvise in the backfield to get positive yards.
