[QUOTE="PackersRS, post: 296521, member: 1429"] I made this point in another thread. Every team has an identity. But ultimately, it doesn't matter if they can run the ball, if they don't have solid QB play. Great Ds will simply stack the line, play agressively, and force the QB to win against them. The Giants were a running team in 07, but it wasn't Jacobs, or Bradshaw who won them their SB. Eli was a monster that game, and so was Plaxico. The only time a team without an elite QB won a SB was in 05 with Roethlisberger. And he wasn't elite back then, but he is now. Running yards and yards per carry isn't a statement if the running game is good or not. The definition of what works and what doesn't isn't the same for every team. Our running game is working. Are we scoring a ton? YES. Are we able to utilize play actions effectively? YES. Are we getting run TDs in the redzone? YES. Are we fumbling the ball? NO. Are our RBs picking up the blitz when asked to? YES. Our running game is working. [/QUOTE]
