Was it the case that they had a good running game or had to force the run because they had to shelter Cassell so much?
I didn't watch a lot of NE games but in the ones that I did the running backs were far from impressive and it seemed that any time there was a decision to be made they went with the safe run rather then risk letting Cassell have to make a play.
