I can guarantee you that Matt Forte isn't running skinny posts when putting up 10.4 YPC.
He's just not all that effective in the flats, and he doesn't really bounce off of hits that well.
Ironically, he actually works best off tackle. Now, that's not between the tackles, as on any interior run he's garbage, but on isolated draw plays where he can make a single cut and go off of Albert or Richardson, he has some utility.
