It's not Ben and the offense!

    6 regular season, 4 preseason and all of camp, mini camp, ota's. c'mon man. they should have this O down pretty well by now. we actually improved with the backups in there, so again that dog don't hunt. :cool:

    Our Offense has played well,but could have been great with better OL and WR play....As I stated in the Redman thread before Decastro went down and Adams was benched,,Redman could average over 5.0 YPC under the new Haley scheme,,I also stated we would use Miller a lot and he would be huge in this Offense..

    Well we got to see that Haley did indeed want to run the FB ,but our OL could not make any holes,insert Doug and Adams and bam we have holes...It will be interesting to see if those holes are still there with Pouncey at Center?

    Anyway the play calling has been great,the style has been great ,but we have failed to execute at a High level IMO...If we do we should be that 30 plus point Offensive Team on a regular basis.....

    my concern about this play calling and offense is all the 3rd and long plays we have to make. ben has been great at doing it so far, but we can't expect to keep that up every 3 plays. it's almost too conservative at times for my liking. our stregnth is our WR's and TE and one thing all of our backs have proven is they can catch the ball out of the backfield and make things happen. from will johnson,to red,to dwyer,to mendy,to rainey. use it. :cool:
