I remember as a child asking my father why the RB would always run into the backs of the linemen instead of running to where there were no people. As he poignantly pointed out, that is where the play is designed to go, so he must have faith that the guys up front will open the hole for him. If he doesn't, the play is destined to fail before it begins.
But it seems to me that Bernard is suffering the same fate, with even less results, so it again falls back to the o-line.
