Generational thing

I watched all those super bowls growing up. so I"m old school & a big Gibbs fan.

However, I think it should be pointed out that for some reason Gibbs is associated w/Riggo & running the ball. Never mind that Riggo was only on 2 of those s. bowl teams (1-1). Never mind that Gibbs was the o. coordinator for Air coryell when they were the first team ever w/3 1,000 yd. recievers. Never mind that the Posse were the first 3 wide recievers to have over 1,000 yds. Never mind the skins set a single season scoring record in 83-4.

Gibbs' offenses were just as much about the 3 wr set as they were the single back counter trey. While it's true that if Gibbs could run Riggo (or even Jamie Morris as he got the skins carry record in 89 v. iggles) all day he would, his teams got progressively more balanced through the years & his qb's always threw the deep ball.

I want us to run the ball as much as anybody but when you've averaged 2.5 ypc in the 2nd half since the g-men game, you have to look to get the ball downfield or in the flats to your other playmakers. I see us as a pass first O at this point. When Thomas comes back we can change that, but for now let JC make the throws we need to win.
