Skinsguy, that's true. However, your players get in a funk when you don't trust them. If they went 4 wide more often then we could have spread the D out and let Portis run, and just a few decent completions, which aren't out of Ramsey's range but simply WERENT CALLED could have been able to make the safeties honest. A key game was the Philly game, we could have stretched them downfield some but we went downfield very few times. I hope to see a change this week.

8 and 9 guys up on the line to limit the running game. Therefore, putting in a 4 wide receiver set is useless unless the receivers are willing to catch the ball.

If they put 8 guys in the box, that means you have three guys left for coverage so someone has to respect that #4 receiver. If nothing else that opens it up for Portis. If this wasn't Gibbs, would you be trying to make the same argument?
