Look around. Alot of teams pass to set up the run. Alot of teams pass to loosen up the defense and then come back with the run later. We can't run so why try to play ball control and run the clock out instead of trying to maybe pass more to get more points? That running out the clock crap has lost us games. It almost lost the Ariz game and it lost the Giants game. It lost games in 05 and so on.

I was watching the Clev. game this past weekend and they made an consistent effort to get Braylon Edwards the ball downfield. Not throwing stupid little pussy ass screen passes that don't work. They threw it to him 15-30 yards downfield. Why aren't we doing this with Santana? He's our big play guy. Right? Is Clev any better than we are at the skill positions? They have a better line right now but we can still throw down field with our line. We just don't try to.
Yes, I watch plenty of games. I also have statistical, factual basis for my arguments rather than just spouting anecdotal nonsense.

So the whole Washington sports media and many former players that agree with my opinions are spouting anecdotal nonsense??? I'm just not a stat geek ( like you ) that lives and dies with numbers. Stats never tell the whole story.

Everyone involved in this thread needs to chill. This thread is quickly headed to a lockdown.

Dude I'm fine. Mheisig always seems to go out of his way to attack me. Calling me a crack head and a loser and what not.

Yup, that's why I said "everyone."

Re: AP Article: Redskins offense back to square one!

I always thought Football 101 was play to your strengths. If you have a top tier QB and above average pass protection, you throw more. If your running game is stronger and your pass protection is below average, you run more.

I'm a lazy man by nature so I won't bother looking up the numbers; however I would venture to guess the Colts and Patriots run the ball way more than pass in the 4th when they're ahead by 2 or 3 TD's...just like 90% of the rest of the league would do if they happen to find themselves frequently in such a situation.

Where was I! Oh yeah, teams with weak/inexperienced QB's should run more in order to set up the pass.

Could you please point out one thread or post on this entire site where I have referred to you (or anyone for that matter) as a "crack head and a loser"?

I thought we were engaging in intelligent debate. Flat out making shit up about what I've said is ridiculous and crossing the line.

I don't know what the hell he's talking about either.

I am very sorry. I got you mixed up with another person in the BB thread. Everybody was pileling on me cause I defended what he did and I got you mixed up with the person who started the thread. Again I'm very sorry.
