I thought one of the bright spots for a first game and a game against a big opponent was the running game. All three backs have good leg drive and power and get extra yards, they are not speedsters but hit holes quick once they make the cut, IKM I thought looked healthy and very capable. I thought the outside zone blocking worked well and created good lanes to the edge and some cutback lanes. In recent years the outside zone blocking just was not up to snuff.
jNW will crowd the LOS but I hope the hawks just try to power run right at them, make the correct cuts, push the piles, and wear out the mildcats.
