running doesn't always work for me in the red zone because they don't need to worry about a pass downfeild so they stack the line. i agree that passing it short to the halfback is probably the easyest way to score in the redzone. the tight ends doing out routs work pretty good too, but you need to be careful to not throw it to him automatically you need to make sure he is in front of the defender or else the other team could put up 6.
