Doesn't help that they lined up in a shotgun formation if I remember correctly on that play. I remember them doing that quite a few times last year on 4th and short and running it and getting nowhere. OR maybe I'm just remembering all the times it didn't work. Whatever. In a short yardage situation, with Dillon, regardless of the scrubs on the o-line, you should be able to at least get that 1 yard. Line up in an "I" formation and pound the damn rock. Who cares if the Defense knows you're running the ball - make them stop you.
