it worked last year, so we're going to scrap it this year .

it's harder to protect when the other team knows you're passing 90% of the time, and right now, we run portis left and right (outside), get stuffed, and quit running for the rest of the game. our screens and runs all seem to go right into the flat, so i'd think it'd be a pretty easy offense to defend. even last year we didn't use the middle of the field, but at least we went deep and kept people off the line.
