Run the Damn Ball!!!!!!


89=#1

Recommended Posts

Line it up, pound the rock. We should have nearly a 2/1 run to pass ratio at the end of almost every game. We have a top 5 nfl back and two other backs that could start for most teams. We have a good run blocking o-line, and great backs this is our team. When we run the ball on 1st and 2nd and occasionally only pick up 2 or 3 yrds. , sure you will here a lot of boos but so what? Who cares? This is our only chance!!! THE RUNNING GAME........

Then, hit the big play to one of the best WR in the game #89.... go back to the simple stuff, let the run set up the pass, minimize QB turnovers no matter who it is. Do this for this year to give us a chance at a wild card, then get Fox, Delhomme, Hurney the hell out of here and start fresh but for this year this is what we have!

I think Davidson forget this sometimes, and I don't understand that one bit. Running sets up the pass, that's the way the team has been built. Throwing the ball deep to Moose is just stupid. Was Jarrett never open one time? I understand Jake barely had time to get set in the pocket most of the time, but damn, how many receivers and TEs do we have?

here is the gameplan. Run Williams and Stewart. Punt if you have to and play defense. Occasionally mix in some new and creative screen plays to Smitty and the RBs. Most of NE's passing yards come from this stuff.....the play action and deep looks downfield need to quit for the time being.

not simple or predictable...we have the talent to produce some nice YAC and need to get create with short passes and screens not having Jake trying to look downfield as much any more. Also, need to run, run, run, punt more some. Give time for the opponent to make some mental errors also.

I am on board with running and short passes, I don't care if we run it three times and punt just no TO's, but no more screens we just can't do it right. I just don't think Jake is mobile enough to run the screen unless it is a WR screen. And no deeps passes to Mushin it doesn't make sense, it is a waste of a down.

Screens are a good idea, we just can't execute them for crap. One of the INTs we had came on a screen, but even outside of the QB position, our team can't sell the play to save their lives. As rarely as we run screen plays, it seems like the opposing defense sniffs out the play every time.

Well to effectively run a screen your QB has to move back from the defenders the Oline lets through and to me Jake is just not quick enough.
