1. The way our O-line has played this year, Joe has to put in the "BIG" package to have half a chance of moving the ball inside the 10. No big secret there. It's also statistically proven that the passing game becomes more difficult inside the 20 because there is less space to operate, so Joe is going to go with what has the best chance of success. It seems so many people love to bash Gibbs play calling whether we abandon the running game or rely on it too heavily. I wish we'd make up our minds!

2. It's no big secret that Gardner has been one of our most inconsistent receivers the whole year and Coles has been hampered since his injury. Cooley probably is our best pair of hands on the offense so why not throw it to him?

3. Failing to mention here that options or not Brunell didn't have the combination of arm strength and accuracy to complete a pass period. We could have run a Spurrier style offense with a half dozen passing options and he still couldn't have completed more than half his attempts.
