You just get beat up and if your line is unhealthy, you get beat up even more. I want JT to be strong in game 17 and then in the playoffs too.
Of the modern era? Terrell Davis, then Emmit Smith twice.

I don’t know if you need a strong running game. Pats had a short passing game that was pretty much the same thing. I think you just need to do some aspect of the the game really well that exploits defenses and then play good defense yourself. Preferably rushing the passer because most teams pass for their big plays. We just happen to run the ball well with two homerun hitters at RB. I think a lot of teams are built to stop the pass now, do the Colts kind of play into a weakness of a lot of other teams.
