At the end of many games we love him for it, but Lynch has stopped powering through the open gap for a guaranteed gain of 3+, and is now trying to make his own holes by running laterally. Add that to poor run blocking, where defenders are getting into the backfield in under 2 seconds and he's getting stuffed behind the LoS on half his run plays.
I love Beastmode but I noticed the same thing the last several games. He has missed some glaring holes. Might be easier to spot from the comfort of our couches but I was getting worried about it when he seemed to tail-off in 2nd half of the season.
It's like RW -- they don't seem to be confident in the O-line. Not sure I blame them.
Lovin' the moment but there's always room for improvement and I hope they will address our oline in the offseason.
