Road Hogs Hungry For Chemistry
Posted Aug 12, 2008
The Carolina offensive line has traditionally called itself the Road Hogs, paving the way for the running backs. It was a tradition perpetuated by linemen like Jason Brown, Brian Chacos and Skip Seagraves who carved out space for 4.9 yards per carry and 19 rushing touchdowns. But in the last three seasons, the linemen were Road Hogs in name only. Carolina has not averaged more than 3.6 yards per carry since 2004.
