Their run numbers are NOT good this year by advanced metrics...in fact the Bills have been better than they have across the board, they just do it more...

 

They average under 8 yards per game more in rushing yards than the Bills do with only slightly more than 112 yards a game.

 

In Adjusted Line Yards, the 49ers rank dead last at 3.44(Bills 23rd at 3.92)

In RB Yards, the 49ers rank dead last at 3.51(Bills are surprisingly 2nd at 4.68 only to TB's 4.86)

In Power Success Rate, the 49ers are 14th at 67%(Bills are 10th at 71%---much better than 30th last year)

In Open Field Yards(Yards the RB gets past 10 yards divided by # of RB carries), the 49ers are 26th at 0.57(Bills are 2nd at 1.18 only to TB 1.40)

In 2nd Level Yards(Yards the RB gets between 5-10 yards divided b y # of RB Carries), the 49ers are 22nd at 1.05(Bills are 2nd at 1.28 only to ATL 1.33)

In Stuff Rate, the 49ers are 31st at 25.7% and only percentage points better than CLE who is dead last with the same percentage(Bills 17th at 21.0%)

 

So basically, their RBs have not been very good breaking long runs in general and they get stuffed more than 1 out of every 4 carries in the backfield. Their offensive line also basically has not been good at run blocking and opening holes apparently either.

 

Schemes can only make up for lack of talent on the OLine so much....

Mostert being back may change this

Maybe, but he was back last week and ran 16 times for 43 yards. As a team they ran for 112, their average, on 33 carries.

If they can’t get the run game going or are inconsistent getting positive yards they are going to struggle against us. 3 and long could lead to a huge turnover game for us.
