We've had a poor rushing attack for years. Masked by scrambling QBs and


a few elite backs (like Ryan Williams).

In the stat sheet, the rushing numbers in the end sometimes looked decent when the likes of Tyrod would rip one off for 40 while scrambling. We also had backs that could break off a big one with little OL help. And the run scheme sucked as well.

Carries would be like, +1, no gain, -4, +2, no gain, -1.then Logan Thomas would tuck and go for 60. Then people be like: "7 rushes for 58 yards? Awesome. Raises for the offensive staff."

Problem is now, we aren't getting the elite backs that we once had (Wilson, Ore, Evans, and others). Although I will say, I think the scheme and the OL are better (but not great) under Fuente, but not by much.
