Conducting a little bit of an experiment with this discussion… when you hear the term “finesse” (typically in a derogatory manner), which teams from across the decades spring to mind?

    you can argue though that the way we run the ball is still a “finesse”. we typically dont run between the tackles and gut out yards. we use a heavy compliment of sweeps and reverses to try and hit the home run.

    I dont really see it as being a bad thing though. we are playing to our strengths, which is speed. If you know your better then anyone else at a certain skill, you take advantage. And its not like there isnt hard work on blocking outside runs too.
