Open letter to Coach Key (and long-suffering Jackets): Referring to the Spring Game you once stated that you cringed at the emphasis on the passing game rather than the running game. Your instincts were correct.
The running game requires more overall physicality and toughness by the offense...
If you can't consistently run the ball well -- you can't consistently win games -- If you can't consistently stop the run -- you can't consistently win games. You have to focus on the run to be physical.
We have a big problem -- we do not run the football well -- our defense practices against an offense that does not run the football well -- this makes it hard to develop a physically tough football team.
