[QUOTE=Mattyk72;229332]Right now we have no offensive identity.

I'm wondering if there isn't some resistance there from the players not buying into this offense.

We really need to focus on an identity and stick with it.

Run the damn football! I felt like it was 2003 all over again yesterday. We should have pounded those guys into the ground.

Something is seriously wrong when Travis Henry gets 32 carries and Portis gets 14. It doesn't take a genius to guess the winner of the game just by looking at that stat.[/QUOTE]


I think its exactly the opposite. I think the coaches dont believe they have the players to run the offense.

Run what, Saunders' cutesy offense?

If that's what they believe they need to stop forcing the issue and instead tailor things towards the talent we have. We're cut out for being a running team right now and the coaches need to call the game accordingly. Otherwise it's like trying to force a square peg through a round hole.

Yes, thats why AS was brought to DC, to run his offense. Everyone said Gibbs was too conservative last year (and Gibbs by his own admission said he needed help getting up to date offensively) so to address that problem he went to KC got As and now they have an 700 page playbook that it seems AS does not think he has the players to do.

Only problem i have with saunders this game is that were playing the worst team against the run and portis gets 14 carries. explain that one to me

Well it's time to face the facts that either we don't have the personnel or the adjustment period is taking longer than expected. In the meantime we need to change things up or the season will be over before it even started.

The skins dont have the personnel. Sad but true.

If the skins change things up AGAIN, when will the AS offense get implemented?
