The lack of running game has killed us for quite some time now. It's not that we don't have it, its that we don't utilize it in big games.
I was looking at McCarrons stats from the playoff game and noted he threw 42 times...
So pretty much in the last 5 playoffs we have thrown 38+ times in 4 of the games (or something similar to that, this is off the top of my head)
I think this has been our downfall. Why can't we stick with the run in playoff games? It's because it isn't effective, but as Fred stated, we have the pieces for it to be there. Hopefully a new running scheme will fix things... but I'm not so certain how much these things can be fixed when your O-line coach stays the same...
Either way, I think UTILIZING the running game will be key next year.....
