Oilers face season with shaky run game and new hopes
Houston Oilers enter 1976 with a thin running attack and a need for reliable backfield production. Coach Bum Phillips cites 3.9 yards per rush last year and hopes for stronger inside runs from Don Hardeman, Ronnie Coleman, Fred Willis, Artie Taylor, and Joe Dawkins. The defense anchored by Curley Culp and Elvin Bethea remains solid, but injuries threaten depth as preseason losses cloud the outlook.
