2021, Week 2 versus the Tennessee Titans who were down 24- 9 to the Seahawks. The Titans kept running it and running it and running it. And the Seahawks did a good job vs the run for 3 quarters, but the Titans kept running it anyway. Why? Because defenses wear down, and by the 4th quarter they are tired, and so focused on the run, that they are vulnerable to the pass, and the fatigue allows the Titans RB to break loose in the 4th quarter.
Run the Damn Ball! When you lose your Center and left guard, and your back up Center is (IMHO) is better at the run game than the pass game, and your backup Left Guard is a Right Guard fresh off off IR/Injury, Run the Damn Ball!! When it's obvious that the Rams elite defense is overwhelming your line, and your QB is turning the ball over, Run the Damn Ball!
You have Ken Walker and Zach Charbonet! So Run the Damn Ball!! Here's some info (including a Baldy's Breakdown on the game), the Week 2, 2021 losss to the Titans...who...Ran the Damn Ball!! Specifally, Derrick Henry ran THIRTY FIVE times for 182 yards (one 60 yarder), and 3 touchdowns. Tannehill ran 4 times for 27 yards, and J. McNichols ran once for 3 yards. All in all, the Titans ran FORTY times for 212 yards and 3 touchdowns!

2021: Titans 33, Seahawks 30 (overtime)
The Seahawks allowed over 500 yards of offense to the Titans, with over 200 of those yards coming on the ground. That was because All-Pro running back Derrick Henry, after being bottled up in the first three quarters by Seattle’s defensive front, finally broke loose on a 60-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter on his way to a 182-yard, three touchdown day.
The Seahawks put up 30 points, but they only had the ball for 22:42 of clock time compared to Tennessee’s 42:33 (in an overtime game) and (Seattle) ran 52 plays to the Titans’ 83. (The Titans ran the ball a lot and had close to twice the TOP that Seattle had).
