Interesting thing about second half -- Colorado has done relatively well loading up the box and making us throw. (That is, they can shut down the run in those situations, though Hogan has been effective in the air.) The trouble is, of course, that we'd like to run the ball at will to shut down the game and protect our defense.

If you call giving up 139 yards rushing in the half "shutting us down".

*in those situations.* We've done well in shotgun-run and spread-running situation. But when we go I-formation their loading the box strategy has worked at dissuading the run.
