what gets me is the absolute impossibility of certain plays ever working in the running game. Any play where it is not a straight handoff directly to the rb and can get the rb to line quickly NEVER works. Several of the off tackle plays and such have the qb drop laterally to hand the ball off nearer to the proposed hole. Since Ramsey is so damn slow Portis ends up losing a step and either an OLB or the End ALWAYS make the tackle on those. I can't even use those. I have to have Cartwright lead directly in front of me and create some misdirection to have a chance.
