What's a running back?

Something our offense apparently does not believe in using much

I'd like to see Burns get some carries too - but unfortunately there just aren't many chances the way our offense has played this year.

Our RB's have averaged 18 carries a game - so it's hard enough to split that little amount between 2 RB's.

Even if DeeJay leaves - barring injury, it's hard to see a path to Burns getting carries if he has to compete against Lingard, Chaney & Cam next year.

We need more carries than that. Usually, a balanced offense is more effective. You don't want us to become like a Mike Leach coached offense.

What's a running back?

Someone who, after we all have seen this offense play it’s best, gets the ball to run after we have set that run up after numerous passes.
