Re: Offense: Biggest Questions Going Into Camp
The lack of the run was always a bit of a misconception to me. We went with the run less because our offense relied on a first down passing attack. That simply leads to less runs. I do like what I see in Perrine, but I don't think any back will be a superstar here simply because we use the run as a complimentary piece first. Now if JG changes his historical trends like Gibbs did, then maybe we see a more balanced attack, but seeing as how we waited for Perrine, I don't see a change happening.
I love our receiving corp right now. I wonder how JG actually feels about taking over the offense again. Does the fact that they didn't hire a new OC mean that he's more on the hook for KC's success. I don't think our new DC can step in and handle the game side enough to relieve Gruden of any game time defensive responsibilities, so I could see our offense suffering just from the pressures placed on Gruden in close games. |

I think we will be able to do that mainly because of playcalling and Perine. I might be overly confident about Pryor... but I love the guy, watched a few Browns games from last year, and I was impressed. BTW NFL network talked about him signing here in their top 50 need to know stories entering this season. I know... NFL network... But it shows expectations are really high. And I think they're gonna be met and then some!

And that doesn't even speak to the red zone. Everything works better around the 5 when the LBs' first step has to be forward instead of backward.
