But then again I only talk in riddle because I have no clue what im talking about.
Man that jumbo bullshit needs to be throw out of the damn playbook. Period. That's the 80's mentality that Gibbs and Bugel have. We were just fine spreading the field out and running the offense. The offense was doing just fine. Then we get down close and bring in all the heavy guys and that shit DOES NOT WORK!!! Didn't the damn coaches learn anything from the Giants game???? You can still run the regular offense with regular personel down on the goaline. I watch Indy do it all the time. Indy never ever brings in the heavy slow guys yet they always seem to run it well on the goaline with Harrison and Wayne still in the game. Plus you still have the best guys on the field. Sorry but Lorenzo Alexander is no threat to catch a pass. It's just one less guy the defense has to defend. That 's on Gibbs and he needs to adjust.

I disagree with that. There are times when it is good to show the other team that you will impose your will on them. The only problem is that there are also times when you need to run a naked bootleg or play action to Cooley off of it. Too bad our leader can't figure that out.

I agree we should go out in this next offseason, and get a big bodied TE who we are comfortable with playing on both passing and rushing downs. In the short run, we will be fine with Alexander. Him being in is really selling our PA fakes and getting us open receivers running everywhere.

I don't understand your fascination with the spread. Just cause the best QBs ever make it effective doesn't mean everyone and their grandmother should copy it.

IMO you stick with what's working. So far this year when we bring in the heavy guys around the goaline it DOES NOT WORK. This game and the Giants game. Enough is enough. Just keep the regualr guys in since we are not blowing guys off the ball on the goaline.

I think you saw today how much better the offense is when we get our guys spread out a little bit and running hurry up. Nothing wrong opening things up.
