If it's not working - why stick with it?  

Regardless - having three O-Lineman taken off of the injury report that had been there for several weeks  - along with Fournette returning and Hyde getting good time with the playbook = no excuse not to establish a run game on Sunday this week.

Yeah, if it's not working it's good to find other options. Llast year for exemple, especially towards the end of the year as we ran Fournette into walls of defenders for a 1 yard gain on 1st and 2nd down without changing our approach too much.
My comment wasnt much about the London game though (where I still feel we should have run more, especially on the final drive of the first half, to not give the ball back to Philly with time -like we ended up doing- and on the final drive of the game, but yes other than that we weren't effective running although I wouldn't put it too much on the backs) but more about the Titans game, Chiefs game, Cowboys game, where Yeldon was often getting 6-7 yards on 1st down (in the first half of course since we stopped running afterwards in all those games) and we went out of it right after, calling 2nd down plays like the Niles Paul injury one and such.
Fournette should help quite a bit in the redzone, hopefully we start going back to the success we had there last year compared to the struggles we are having this year once in the RZ.
Totally agree on your final point.
