# of rushes would impact the yds and yds per game. And the OC or whoever called the plays clearly let Rodgers dictate the run/pass split. Again, I said I'd see more of an RPO focus from Fields leading things and I think you'll see it's better than you thought. Yds per RUSH they were middle of the pack (4.3 and 16th in the NFL - right there with the Bills, Texans, Pats and Bengals).O-Line health, score, subpar OC, and nutcase for a QB contributed to it, but the Jets run game was ranked #31 or 32 last year in terms of yards, attempts, and Yds/gm, and rushing TDs.
Detroit's o-line was darned good. The running game starts in the trenches, not the backfield.
