Houston disengages as the RB approaches the hole and squeezes inside to stop that play for a 1-2 yard gain.

Ford and this guy Niemann( I know everyone loves this guy but after watching him play) are too small to your point. Ford has no instincts to smell out a play and why he looks clueless after the fact and both cannot shed blocks to your point again. I will give Neiman this that he has instincts but he cannot get off the blocks because of his size and lack of strength and gets caught up in the traffic.
