Re: Off season begins.

The run game starts up front. Our front 5 got owned. We could have a ran it all day but when you're getting 2 yards a pop at a certain point you have to move on and try something else.

And we lose. When we run the ball and have a balanced offense we win. Period. We don't win with cousins throwing the ball 35+times. He's not Brady, brees or Rodgers. I don't think mcvay understands that fact.

LG and Running back needs to be address in the offense first and foremost. Then we need to resign a starting WR and make a decision who starts on the opposite side. How about TE? Reed, Niles Paul and carrier all seem to be injuried off and on throughout the season. Vernon Davis is an old man....zero surprise if we look at TE middle round in the draft and we should.

To simply say the offense is "just fine" is absolutely the biggest smoke and mirrors bullshit with this team.

I agree with this. And you can simple look at our offense and see how many weapons we have, yet the formula for stopping us is simple: take away the running game, get to Kirk Cousins and rattle him - your good! That's exactly what happened yesterday.

The formula for success is simple: Build offensive line, build the defense. We have enough at the skilled positions for it to all fall in place.

It's not that simple - that's like saying, just build the roster and go win.

We need a little retooling on the O line. Can AK or Nsechke play LG? We need an upgrade there. We need to resign at least one WR and that is banking on Doctson panning out. D is the real project. A starting FS, safety depth, NT (if we stay in a 3-4; not sold on that), and at least one more DE, preferably two. I wonder whether we have Murphy beef up again and play DE and hope that Gillette can get healthy (may be a pipe dream to think we actually get something out of him). I think we need MLB help too. And CB depth. Hopefully, with better play up front, Breeland can have a better season (and Norman too). But a LOT of work to do on D.
