    The Interior run game must improve

    What can be done to improve this aside from getting a new Center and RG.

      Yes! One of the biggest lines in the NFL shouldn't be using the zone blocking scheme. One of the teams that had the most success with it was the Broncos and they were noted to always have one of the smallest lines.
      BERNIAC!

        We have the third biggest OLine in the NFL, we need to start moving some bodies off the ball. I agree, scrap the zone blocking and lets start smashmouthing it.

          I am for this however while our line is big overall the center and RG are tiny and get blown up virtually every run between the tackles(especially Fowler)

            Let Jackson start or give him more carriers.

              Great idea TD. Bench our best RB. Just brilliant.

              I would also say that Butler has been better than Dockery, so LG is a bigger problem and that Butler is not tiny.

                This is going to be unpopular on this site, and very hard to pull off at OBD. There is some merit if Jackson wasn't so good in the passing game.

                  The scheme is the problem. The running game should be better and it's not all on Fowler.

                  Fowler is small and the weakest link but the running game shouldn't still have the problems we are having.

                    What do you mean, Jackson is already the backup.

                        put Preston at center....whenever he played against the starters in pre season our running game up the middle was so much better!

                          It just wouldn't be true either. Lynch is clearly better than Jackson.

                            Lynch softens up the D for Jackson to come in and make plays.

                              Not to mention Jackson gets to run on 3rd down when the defense is more often in pass defense mode and there will be more room to run.
