Our Runningbacks have been weak since 2019.

That needs to change

we had games this year where the backs were running well and then when it got near the goal line, he called his own number more times than not.

William is a better ball carrier than JD. Williams just doesn't have the benefit of people not running towards him everytime he has the ball in his hands.

This season:
Williams: 532 yds 5.5ypc 6 TDs
Cain: 351 yds 5.2ypc 8 TDs
Emery: 328 yds 4.7ypc 5 TDs
Goodwin: 267 yds 5.9ypc 5 TDs

Total: 1478 yds 5.5ypc 24 TDs

That's pretty good production. The biggest issue is they didn't get enough carries to establish a consistent run game.

The RBs have been slightly above average to me this season. The OLine with it's inexperience has been the problem, it's hard to have good running when the OLine isn't good. But Williams has been spectacular with his relentless style of running, and Cain has been a solid RB as well. Emery, with his obvious talents has been disappointing with his fumbling issues and all. He needs to work at becoming dependable.
