So the Vikings improved on their running in week 2 with 198 yards from 27 carries, but shamefully established the pass with 32 attempts, sealing their doom.

The 49ers are likely to be candidates for week 2. Their two leading rushers (Matt Breida and Raheem Mostert) put up 204 yards on 25 attempts and called a run play on 61.76% of their plays, the highest in the NFL this week.

The gods spoke their anger in those two picks which cost Minnesota the game. If they had run the ball, who knows what wouldn't happened there

The Cardinals did not establish the run this week.

11 attempts for 20 yards.

The Seattle Seahawks established the run in week two, going for 151 yards on 33 carries with 1 rushing TD, and most importantly, iced the game by converting a 4th and 1 by rushing for the first down instead of taking a long fieldgoal.

Though the 49ers should win the week for Establishing the Run, the Seahawks deserve an honorable mention for running on 4th and 1 to beat the Steelers; a field goal would have given the Steelers a chance to win, and was the cowards’ way out.

Edit - actually, no, give it to the Seahawks for the balls that took.

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

The Bears learned their lesson from Week 1 and established the run in Week 2 running 29 times for 153 yards. Running the ball two more times than passing, and they used six different rushers too.

Nine runs in a row resulting in a score.

That's setting up for the establishment of the run.

My vote is with the niners. If you watch the game, it is absolute domination via the establishment of the run. Almost every time they ran the ball it worked, Raheem Mostert was out there looking like a pro bowler and Breida had some truly beautiful stop/start runs, ending the day with over ten yards per carry on 11 attempts.

They ran the ball the most, they ran the ball SUCCESSFULLY the most, and they generally just dominated their opponent through the zone run game. When they weren't running they were using the run to set up play action deep shots, remember the best kind of pass is a hard run play fake and/or a screen.

Seahawks definitely deserve honorable mention for that ice-cold big-balls 4th down to win the game. If we were voting on a single run, that would be my choice

A bunch of the Niners so-called passing yards were quick forward pitches, essentially running plays, so their establishment of the run is actually undersold by the stat line

I would like to nominate Marlon Mack and the Indianapolis Colts for an honorable mention. Mack carried the ball 20 times for a grand total of 51 yards. That is an absolute commitment to establishing the run.

it looks like Patrick DiMarco (BUF) has 1 yard in 1 attempt with 0 TDs and 0 first downs and James Develin (NE) has 3 yards in 2 attempts with 0 TDs and 1 first down

in short, some vintage FB play right there that surely electrified the fans

I'm tempted to vote for the 49ers because the run was established and it is good.

But deep down I need to vote for the Ravens because their QB established the run and that is #blessed

Do not let the stats fool you for they are but a trick. Jimmy Kleinsasser was a FB/TE, whose strength was not catching or passing (192 receptions in 12 years) but of blocking.

Behold a man who was a TE, but whose job it was to help seal the edge, dominate DE and OLB, and ensure that runs were established for as long as possible. So much so, he was active in 7 of the 8 highest rushing seasons in Vikings history.

He was also a man who looked like this
