Maybe not quite that strongly, but your going to get more good opportunities if you can consistently stop the run and set up third and long situations. There were some pretty damn good Colt teams that we're derailed because they couldn't stop the run despite having great pass rushers
Our offense is pretty potent, and teams with a strong running game are going to try to run the ball to keep AJ and friends off the field.
