Erebor, nope.
Well, a dragon is a different situation altogether. If they were being chased by a dragon the whole movie, I would support them running away.
Azanulbizar, well, yeah, they technically won, but lots of dead dwarves, and they aren't living there, are they?
The numbers weren't exactly equal. If Azog had hundreds of orcs with him I'd support running, but it doesn't look like an army, just another company.
Trolls--even though they seemed to hack, stab and whack them at length, all I saw were a few troll teeth go, no wounds to speak of.
Missing teeth are wounds? To be fair, the dwarves didn't have wounds either. They could have kept fighting had it not been for Bilbo.
With Azog in the trees--when they did finally attack, it didn't go well.
Thorin fought the only competent orc by himself and lost. When the other dwarves (and even Bilbo!) decided to help, they held their own.
They were surrounded until, well, eagles. I think running away is a good plan for this group.
They were very nearly all killed, and it's a problem that could have been solved long ago. Also, don't forget the possible help of the Elves in coordinating a nearby ambush.

Why didn't they fight Azog?

Fighting wouldn't have guaranteed they'd all survive would it?
