Message: [QUOTE="OrangePA, post: 1257915, member: 204"] I don't know why this is such an issue for you either. But you and I rarely see things the same way so it is what it is. I'll make my point again and then I'm done. A powerful running game is key when attempting to win football games. And even though the game has changed that is still the case. And though you can find exceptions to the rule - the 2011 Giants - a team that went I think 9-7 or maybe even 8-8 in the regular season - the basic rule remains - as evidenced by the Packers and the Buckeyes and as you noted the Seahawks. The essence of the game is power - imposing your will over the other team. And that occurs on the line of scrimmage. And the best indication of one team dominating another team is the one team's ability to run the ball between the tackles. See ya. [/QUOTE]
