I'm hesitant to believe that it's going to significantly improve.  I think this is a situation where we're getting what we kind of expected...that Mattison doesn't have the vision that Cook had, so he needs bigger holes created to be effective.  To see any improvement, I think Chandler needs to be in more, because he has the wiggle that Mattison does not.

Absolutely there's hope. between injuries, playing two of the better run defenses in the NFL, and turnovers putting the team in passing situations, I think there are better odds that they improve quickly. 

I do hope that they are spending a significant amount of time on it this week haha.

EDIT: that's not to say that the run game is going to become a focal point of the offense - that would be silly given the weapons on the team. I just think the run game will be more effective than it has been.
