By your logic, these teams should no longer run the football, which is completely ignorant.

You are CLUELESS.  The Bills suck at running the ball this year, they average only 3 more carries per game than us, and they are not playing from behind all game like we are.  That is like saying "well, our defense is actually pretty good this year because we are giving up 65 yards per game less than the 5-0 Seahawks."  Your ridiculous argument has absolutely ZERO logic.  Its comical.

3.7 YPC would put you at 29th in the League right now.  If that is not "terrible", please tell me what is.  Your ignorance is truly astonishing.  Washington is ranked at the bottom of the League with 3.5 YPC.  And if you want to cherry-pick stats, if you take out Robinson's ONE good14-yard run, he averaged a HORRENDOUS 2.8 yards per carry after that.  If its working, then great... run the ball.  However, it was not.  

But sure, you keep demanding we hand the ball off to him when we are down 20-7 in the 2nd half when our run game is getting stuffed.  Complete ignorance.

As a team we averaged 3.8 which is as good or better than the season average of the two teams leading the division who both run the ball more per game than we do, and neither just played back to back the two worst run defenses in the NFL.

We were down 3 point's at half time and up 3 points the week before against the two worst rushing defenses in the league, so there is no excuse for not rushing the ball more.

If you don't understand the correlation between running the ball and winning games, then you don't understand a fundamental concept of football which is pathetic.
