Big play Chase?

I think this is why we have seen a large uptick in RPOs this season as well as bubble screens. They are trying to get creative in extending the run game and getting some early down production because the actual run game isn't up to snuff. 

It's one thing to say "just run the ball consistently, it'll get better" and another to actually be in the game with a struggling rush offense trying to justify calling it again. If you're running the ball and being ineffective with it, you're not forcing the defense to react. Ideally, you want them to commit an extra player in the box so you can potentially get some explosives in the air. If you're averaging three yards per carry against a split safety look, the defense is going to be thrilled and stay right where they are at. 

People think that if you just run the ball, you'll wear down the defense and running will get easier.  That's true IF you can run the ball and keep your offense on the field.  You can run-run-pass all day and you aren't wearing anything down if you keep going 3 and out.  You have to keep the offense on the field to give your D time to rest and make adjustments.  

On another note with explosive plays in the run game, I think we kind of learned after Brown started getting some carries that Mixon is definitely leaving a lot of chunk yardage on the field.
