I don't think there's any doubt Hill doesn't have the greatest RB vision there is. I've seen him miss many holes. There's little doubt here he should have followed Hewitt. It appears he seen that hole developing to the right and didn't see the LB coming downhill. I believe Hill has contributed to our running sickness ad libbing and just flat out missing holes. To anxious ?
But I still think more often than not the run blocking on many plays, has been substandard.
As is the case may times in football it's not just one thing or player. On one play it's Hill missing. On the next it's the RG, on the next it's the C, on the next it's the TE and so on. Having said that I still believe Bodine is our weak link.
I agree with you. I don't think our running game sucks because Hill is constantly missing hole, but a combination of things. I do think Hill needs to be held accountable, though. Some people on this board want to point out that our offensive line play is the sole reason for the lack of success in the running game.
Its a combination of poor play by Hill and poor play by the offensive line. At this point, what is the downside with giving Gio more touches? He is the better back.
The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy
