Clearly last year defenses did not have to be concerned with our run game, and it showed in the Super Bowl and all year in the red zone.

Exactly. This is why I think we keep all 4 TEs and let go of the FB. We know what we have in Kelce, we're pretty sure Bell is a good blocker with sub-standard hands, Fortson looks like he can block and catch, a Gray is a draft choice with a lot of potential. I wouldn't mind seeing a touch of Martyball in the 4th ahead by 10 or knowing you can make a 4th and 2 90% of the time without putting PMII in peril. I don't have stats, but I'd bet you see a lot more false starts/motion on passing plays in the red zone than when your job is to blast the guy across from you into next Sunday.
