This can’t possibly be the case. There’s no RR’s teams are better in the second half or the OL is playing better or the defense is getting turnovers. I refuse to believe that. The only possible answer to our better play is Shepard and Clay playing instead of KB. The only possible reason.

That’s one reason, but not the only.

KB is really bad at blocking period. Clay and Shepard have actually been better in that department (tbh every WR)

But you’re right in that KB is not the only reason.

Im sure a lot of that is just Cam

It's not rushing yards, it's O-line blocking metric.

It's saying first half of the year our backs were getting hit 1.89 yards after they touched the ball, so pretty much right after they get the handoff.

Now they aren't being touched until they've gone 3.74 yards, which is almost two full yards later. 

That's ridiculous.

It’s yards before initial contact for the offensive line. 

Obviously they are playing as a group much better and coming on strong late.

other helping factors are how the defenses are made to back off run blitzing every down and getting in our backfield ever down.

    • agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it. 
    • I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.
    • I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
