I went back through the game logs for the answer. It was at the very beginning of the 2015 season. Gio went off on the Chargers. It’s absolutely disgusting that aside from one of the worst teams in the history of the NFL, we haven’t had a 100 yard rusher in nearly two and a half seasons. How do they reconcile this with the lack of changes needed to improve?
That was my question and I thank you for the answer. I’m not surprised, however. Let’s discuss why this is the case. It might be easy to blame this on Jeremy Hill or Giovani Bernard but I don’t think that’s the issue. Once again it comes down to play in the trenches and I don’t think the offensive line run blocks well at all.
