Root of all the offensive woes

This team can’t run the ball

How did we go from putting up monster numbers with virtually the same offensive line and assistant coach. Is there something wrong with the scheme or is it the players not getting the push they need?

No QB can compete in the NFL if you’re forced to be one dimensional.

Both guards are hurt and they went from a power-type offense to a zone-stretch, plus Sanders isn't that explosive. I think the guard play is the biggest factor though.

Its absolutely mostly scheme, but its also personnel fit.  Whatever theyre asking the OL to do in the run game is not their strengths, and as an extension, what theyre asking Sanders to do behind them is just as bad of a fit.

Remember, how bad our run game looked last year before Rhule was fired?  Then when Wilks took over, they shifted to a different blocking scheme and put Foreman in and started putting up record numbers.  Same guys blocking...  it's mostly scheme.

Strong argument, why not just scheme according to their strengths, look at the tape from last year and introduce the same concepts

Scheme. Playcalls. And predictability.  All that matters. 

89 and commented on it last week. You can’t say a OL can’t run block or a RB can’t run….when opponents know what you are doing.  They are just going to beat you if they know. 

Biggest issue is Frank Reich.  His predictable calls.  Too much shotgun.  And you can’t do what he has done these past two weeks running just Miles.  It makes it even more comical.  Hubbard is now a tip.  It’s a pass play.   Every time for 2 weeks.   Frank’s poo play calling was aided week 1 because there  at least was some uncertainty about run/pass with Hubbard.

      I hate to burst anyones bubble but this guy played 188 total defensive snaps in three years but 802 special teams snaps. If we do kick the tires, it's probably gonna be for that latter part.

      I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.
