Bottom line is, Asiata needs to hit the bench. The guy literally brings nothing to this running game. I'm so sick of seeing that guy in there. I don't care if we have the worst or best line in the NFL. It doesn't matter with that guy. He takes the handoff and buries his head and has zero clue where he is running. Ronnie Hillman needs to be in way more than he is.

Either way, you sneak the ball right there

Nobody has the answer? They didn't make diving over the line illegal, so why don't teams do it anymore in 3rd/4th and inches? In what world does plowing into the back of a terrible line give you better odds than diving over the top?

Well, the defense has given up only 13 and 3 were a direct result of the blocked FG.

Yes but he wasn't a defenseless receiver at that point.
