Matt Forte has averaged 10.7 yards per rushing attempt over his past four quarters. Forte had 76 yards on six attempts on Friday against the Oakland Raiders.

“What makes the zone blocking good is those linemen get push off the ball,” Forte said. “When they can do that, I can be patient and just sit back and read the blocking. So [while] there’s a place where the play is designed to go, you can just use your vision. If I want to, I can cut it all the way back. Or I can just pick a hole. That’s what makes it so nice.” 

Jay Cutler called Forte “scary out there” on the field. 

“I think he’s getting more and more comfortable with the running lanes, the blocking schemes we’re putting him in,” Cutler said.
