Well I should hope not, cause I didn't see any offensive schemes so complicated that Clausen would have a hard time grasping. And maybe he wouldn't be or look as scared as Moore did, hesitant even.

They need to scale back the offense anyway or trade Jonathan Stewart for a WR. His playtime last week was pathetic considering he's our 3rd best offensive weapon.

And we only have 3 offensive weapons.

What is that.. scaling back from 8 plays to 6? Why even bother??

We have far more than three weapons. Unfortunately, our offensive coordinator (or head coach) doesn't know how to effectively use them all.

LOL, how can you scale back this:

i wish they would take out the schemes that has the QB throwing to the other teams. i mean they might be the only ones that are working but i don't think they are going to help us win.

Jimmy, this is the deep ball to Smith, the hand-off to our running backs, and this little play is something we like to call the "draw play." Use it every 3rd down and long.

Now get out there!

Oh... yeah, they also have this for 3rd and long:

Maybe that's the part Fox would scale back?

Lmao, this is a great thread.

people are talking about fox's usual predictability but what in the world did they do this past week that was predictable?

this is a run first team...probably the strongest in the NFL. why didn't we do that? in the red zone where it made more sense for us to run the ball,why didn't we? isn't that when we usually do it?

i think they are really trying to open up the playbook. it just isn't working. they don't have the personnel for it. i'm thinking this past week was just an experiment.the whole season is going to be. they want to see who will bethe QB and WRs they can rely on in the future. screw the record. just figure out who can play.

i wouldn't be a bit surprised if they switch clausen to the starting job at some point just to see how he can do it.

i was feeling good about the season but the more i think about it, he more i think that this is all abouttryong to see who they can build the team around when FA starts again after the new CBA deal is struck.

sucks for PSL owners. hopefully its good for the long haul.
