Now, don't get me wrong. Especially in a tight game, I'm all for running in the redzone. I'd just like to see a little variety in the type of run plays being called. Not to mention the occassional play action/rollout/normal drop back would work wonders. I can think of one time we threw it inside the 10 last week, and we spent a lot of time there!

Understood, but think about that for a second what happen's to a team when they fall way behind in a game? They have to pass to get back into it, so what does the defense do? They pin their ear's back and go after the QB because they have no concern for the run, and what usually happens is INT's and QB sack's, and that's pretty much how defenses aproach us right now, a good offense will dictate to the defense and how it react's, we are not able to do that, any defense can be beat if you can execute on offense, some of the best offenses in history were offenses not neccessarily complicated but offenses that regardless whether you know what's coming or not you can't stop them, our offense right now is working in reverse of that, team's know that they can stop our run game with their front 4 which allow's them to focus on every other aspect of our offense, if we could force team's to have to commit to stop the run or else, we would be fine, but we can't, I am not saying we have to become a juggernaut with our run game, but we have to get some kind of push up front so defenses know that if they don't overcommit to the run we will run it down their throat's, yes we can game plan to throw the ball 60 times a game but we will probably get Ramsey killed in the process, we would also extend the game time with all the incompleted passes leaving our defense out on the field for far more time than they deserve, it's bad enough as it is for them, Dasael I know your a SS fan and possibly he may not have been that bad on offense, our offensive line probably really lead to his demise in DC, how many of us last year saw Brandon Winey outplay Samuel's? And Winey is a scrub! Now we are treated to one of the greatest coaches of all time who can't make 1 yard in the red zone, or any other time we are in short yardage, Gibb's has been a way for a while but not that long to be absolutly incompetent not to be able to run for a yard, I know we have a lot of money tied up in our O-line but we have seriously overvalued their talent they are big, and slow, with no power, or leg drive, yes we could throw every down but do you think that's the solution? And then we have to explain to the redskin nation why we gave Portis 50 million to pass protect.
