On runs they are getting a little deep

Is this the same as saying they are getting to much penetration and getting up the field to far?

Yes! OL is allowing them to more or less block themselves by going to far up the field and they just push them aside. My buddy mentioned "getting back to the OL's heels. if you get that deep, you had better hope it is a pass because you can't fall back and make the tackle.

Watching closely on the replay and your buddy is right. Dale playing with high pads and getting pushed out of the play. Barmore plays with good pad level but he tends to run around blocks. Eboigbe was the same. Moses and Harris sometimes seemed to find the gap but most of the time they were running the wrong way. But the good news is that they didn't miss a lot of tackles. LOL

We have gotten ripped also right up the gut. This is before they have time to get up the field. They seemed to not be able to hold point or they are trying to run around the block.
