Easy answer to our short yardage probems.

Fred's avoiding that question and I know you will too.

I'd put the blame...

1. Zac calling a bland play with Perine in the game instead of Mixon. (biggest moment deserves biggest players despite the seasonal tendencies).
2. Perine for running straight ahead and not being able to get it.
3. Oline not being strong enough to get 1 yard. 

I'd not consider running a play under center to be a problem because it's not as successful and the defense would have been packed in tighter.
