It was no more evident than the game against the Texans, you could see that Saunders called every play under the sun that he could think of to move the ball without actually having Brunell to have to throw the ball downfield, so he set a record big deal, 22 passes for about 50 yards before YAC. Unfortunatly D-coordinators see that and take it away and force Brunell to have to throw downfield, the game plan is simple stack for the run and the short passing game and force Brunell to beat you deep, not only can't he, but he won't even try, end result 2-4.

I heard the same thing after the horrible preseason performance from the offense. When asked about the limitations of the passing attack, Saunders basically said "Kurt Warner won a superbowl in his first year with my offense."
