Date: June 15th, 2026 6:41 PM Author: big juggernaut oh in that case easily yes. if the coach is still trusting me with carries that late into the season, in one-score games, (even if only one a game) then I must have at least a >0 ypc avg (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5874526&forum_id=2\u0026hid=#49940905) |

Date: June 15th, 2026 7:44 PM Author: disturbing telephone No it’s a good question. Like if it’s 3rd and 10 and they stop him for two yards in a normal game they’ll consider that a win or wonder wtf the other team is doing. If they’re like shit we can’t let this guy get even one yard the op doesn’t stand a chance. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5874526&forum_id=2\u0026hid=#49941131) |

Date: June 15th, 2026 7:48 PM Author: Impressive Navy Queen Of The Night Lettuce Very high chance of success for me assuming: (a) I get a few plays where I don't rush (so the opposing team doesn't decide to go all out to stop me behind the line whenever I'm in the game) and (b) I don't have to run any sweeps, reverses, etc. (which would have a high chance of getting me caught behind the line).
RBs get forward progress. And RBs are very rarely met behind the line on a run between the tackles. You just gotta hit the hole quickly. Stats below--and a big portion of the figures in that stat are probably zero yard runs, sweeps/reverse, or delayed handoffs.
From Twitter:
% of RB runs to gain 0 or fewer yds
29% - PIT, ARI 28% - LAR 27% - NYJ 26% - LV 25% - HOU 24% 23% - DET 22% - TB 21% - BAL, CLE, SEA 20% - KC 19% - GB, NE 18% - NO 17% - IND, MIN, NYG, CAR, ATL 16% - LAC, DAL, MIA, CHI 15% - DEN 14% - TEN, CIN 13% - JAX 12% 11% - WAS 10% - SF 9% - BUF 8% 7% 6% 5% - PHI |

Date: June 15th, 2026 8:18 PM Author: disturbing telephone Oh wait haha no idea why but I didn’t think in the op if you lose yards it counts against you. Thought the whole op was could you even gain one yard. This is a definite no. |

Date: June 15th, 2026 8:06 PM Author: Scarlet Bull Headed Theater Tattoo Just run tosses or sweeps. If you break one off for 40 yards, then you can just do draws to keep from losing any yards. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5874526&forum_id=2\u0026hid=#49941200) |

|
Date: June 15th, 2026 8:13 PM Author: Charismatic factory reset button background story You get it. I'm reading this as no option to just quit earlier than 12 attempts. In that case, there is zero chance for me
Ok, being a lawyer, there is a chance. Get lucky and get some positive yardage in the first 3 or so plays. After that' just fumble every handoff without ever taking control
But if we play this out like I think the hypo intends, there's 0 chance for me |

Date: June 16th, 2026 1:14 AM Author: Scarlet Bull Headed Theater Tattoo I thought of one thing that could sabotage me. If the coach called a trick play where I passed the ball and I took a sack. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5874526&forum_id=2\u0026hid=#49941685) |
