I've always thought Hill could be that all purpose back. Big enough to power through guys but with the fineness to make good cuts. Instead he can't break shoe string tackles and runs into his own guys instead of hitting the gaps. The fumble wasn't 100% his fault but he deserves blame for most of it. I hope this is just a slump because we need that kind of runner.
On the other hand, Bernard is supposed to be that change up back. Better at running around guys than through them. BUT... that hit though. He needs to run through the gaps more. Obviously Hill can't this year. Gio is just the better option all around right now.
To top it all off the O-line was crap. Not absolutely horrible, but they couldn't run block (even though Hue kept forcing them to try) and they didn't look like top of the league pass blockers either.
So... thanks Defense. This win is definitely on you guys.
