so in most years past i run the ball exclusively on offense and just punt the ball and play D and believe it or not I do at least good enough to have a 2-1 win Ratio finish top 1 % for h2h just saying i make it work when running the ball only is not the smartest approach i know that i just like the challenge and designing a team that optimizes grinding first downs thru run game. This is first year I cant effectively do that im still winning but my offense running exact same run schemes are averaging 2-3 yrds less a play according to the game which is correct thats a big deal in my run only offense ill try any formation scheme to find something unfortunately last year the best scheme for this was literally goaline subing in more OL and still this year my number one run play "with opponents obviously expecting me to run" is goaline inside zone and a mix of power O or trap but ALL of the plays according to the numbers have dropped about 2 yards in production and its odd because they have fixed MAJOR issues with run game for me last year no more running into ppl and tripping so if anything it should be better not to mention physics supposedly getting better i sub in 3 extra OL? My analysis lol concludes so far the OL is either sometimes just missing more blocks but the MAIN issue I see is they aren't aggressive anymore OL often starts a run play by LETTING the defensive player push into the backfield whereas I have 8 OLmen on the field they dont push forward they let the dfense engage and push so i get no advantage.
Oh also i usually use truck back and am still cause free Henry who was amazing last year is trash this year cuz truck backs dont pick up more yards maneuvering and juke it way to go sorry this is long but this has been killing me its ruined run game for me i know im nuts oh and btw i can pass usually i wait for ppl to get frustrated and run commit then i bomb it to kelce.
