Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 617108">If the 2-back sets were used disproportionately in short yardage situations, the adjusted spread in yards per carry would be wider.  Since FO's DVOA claims to make precisely these adjustments, you are correct...their results do square with my eye test.Of course Kuhn's snaps would need to be ferreted out from those where an H-back was used, which would, according to my eye test, make his contribution look even better.I conclude that having an effective FB in the absence of an effective blocking H-back is important to the Packer offense, and replacing Kuhn if he were injured this season may not be as easy as it looks.  As with offensive linemen, the FB has a learning curve for his pre-snap reads, and in then taking an effective line of attack.</blockquote>
