But a hard look at each back's runs shows some more interesting information. Bolden made 78 yards after contact (which I defined as any blow that slows the runner or causes a noticeable break in stride); Ridley had 60 yards.
Bolden had seven carries on which he was brought down by the first defender (or wave of defenders) with no gain after contact. Ridley had six of those.
Ridley made seven defenders miss; Bolden made eight miss (remember, Ridley had six more carries.
Most interestingly, on Bolden's first five runs, he didn't make any defenders miss and only made 1 yard after contact. But after that, he exploded, gaining 17, 5 and 7 yards after contact on his next three runs.
In the second half, Bolden had a six-run stretch in which he gained 11, 9, 12, 5, 5, and 4 yards after contact.
