Standards.

Trent Richardson: 950 yards, 11 TD after one season

he's had the two long runs vs Rams and Steelers, but other than that, I can't recall many runs where I'm like 'wow, this guy is special'

Lol, I must admit, you have the most colored perspective of just about any poster on this board ever.

We had success with screens, but they decided to keep running up the middle and passes to the outside during blitzes.

is vision something you can really teach and improve on though? you have milliseconds to decide where to run, it's all about instinct, either have it or you don't. At LSU he could just run over everybody because he was so much bigger, not so much in the pros.

Vision doesn't help when there's no hole to see. You guys should be happy he's averaging 3 ypc behind that bunch of wimps.

I'm not sure that it can be taught, but it can improve with experience.

The line is fantastic at pass blocking though. What can we do differently that won't reduce the effectiveness at pass blocking?

Not run out of 1 back and shotgun sets all the damn time?
