Reich views the screen game as an extension of the running game.

(Why the hell did they draft Nelson 6 overall if they're barely gonna bother to pull him, and ask him to set back in pure pass pro?!)
So hopefully Reich learns to be a little more creative with the actual ground game, and work in the screen game as endemic to a game plan that can also create chunk plays out of defensive second-guessing (see also: DBs biting on screen fake creating Ebron's TD on Sunday)

Running game looked pretty damn good in the 2nd half last week. It's also hard to be effective when you're starting 3rd string tackles and don't have a starting-caliber between the tackles runner on the gameday roster (until Mack returned last week).
