Now we also had Dunn running wild that year with almost 1000 yards on 20 less carries than KF, Bruuuuce putting up decent numbers in relief and even Morlock for a change of pace and catching the wheel routes. This year neither Marshall nor Kpeenu added together had as many touches or yards as LD did by himself. The QB RO set has decimated our RB production.
The Entz-Roehl general theory was that QB run gave us an “extra” blocker (think RB). The problem was they misapplied their theory by running the read-option way too much, as read option does not actually give you an “extra” blocker because the RB isn’t in a place to make an effective block “play” side. QB power does give your the extra blocker, but it’s almost like Entz-Roehl forgot that their theory only applied to QB power. Plus, read option is more designed to slow up an aggressive D, not be a base offense IMO, and it seemed it kinda ended up being our base offense even when D wasn’t being overly aggressive—there was no need for them to be against our running game.
