and he makes a good point.

with how easily we move the ball through the air and the chances we have had once down at the goal.....right now it isn't a great concern. If teams play the pass and we still can't run then it will be a problem.

"I don't think anybody in this organization wants us to rush for under 100 and throw for over 400 every week. Especially without points to back it up. We've got to do better on the ground. We've got to take pressure off Cam. We've got to let him hand the ball off 20-25 times a game and get 150 yards and a couple of scores out of that. That's what we're supposed to do. We're not doing that enough and it's hurting us."

um no gross, thats what we use to do. Pass protection means gross has to work harder and longer during a play. Boohoo. stfu and earn your paycheck.

Name the top teams in the NFL last year or projected this year......handing it off 20-25 times just isn't the way to win. Much more difficult to stop the pass than run.

Run game no doubt needs to step up....but I dont' think the above is the plan. Not in today's NFL.

Cam is a rookie....and that explains things coming to a hault more than anything in the redozne. The plays have been there. Just takes a little time....these early stalled drives aren't going to waste. They are what he will build and improve off of.

rivera is just telling the media what he has to......I dont believe for a second he is not worried about running game even though the way Cam has been passing it has to get better

You know for once I don't believe this is the case. No doubt he wants a better run game, but I think what Rivera's seeing is what everyone should see...."I have a team that can put up 500 yards of offense. I should be able to get 3-4 touchdowns a game easily. I like my chances."

      This guy pre-draft was saying he could take or leave football, and he seems to have been playing with that mentality ever since lol.

      Time to Start Roughing Out the '26 Draft--Needs and Pecking Order

      By BritishPanther · Posted

      Agreed, another safety would be nice. Bud Clark, TCU, is one I would like to see us take a flyer on later in the draft, if he stays healthy and we don't take someone earlier. I just really hope we draft a solid C this year. Tired of seeing us cycle through average to below average players in that area.

      Downfield Disparity

      By carpanfan96 · Posted

      Bryce doesn't like throwing into the middle of the field unless the play broke down or it's set up to give him a passing lane.  So because of this issue, most of the passing offense has to be outside the numbers towards the boundary. So you see him throw a lot of dump offs, swing routes, short side out routes, comebacks or deep balls outside the numbers using the boundary as protection of an interception.    Pretty easy for a NFL defense to see this and scheme against it.  All you have to do is run a shell cover 2 deep dime, LB plays a hook underneath, take the flat away with a blitz/flat zone option for the two inside DB's, outside two DB's play hook zone underneath and carry anything deep.    Pretty much what NO ran to take away Rico while also limiting What Bryce can do as well.
