and that 17 againgts the giants was trash points at the end anyway, but we had 17 against the panters philly and atl

I don't really understand your point. My point is our offense has looked substantially more dynamic, again IMO, since Lewis started calling. It's not the plays themselves, but the use of them. I know when Zorn was calling plays full time, I could predict fairly close what our play was, and I am no where near the caliber of the DCoordinators in the NFL. And the 17 points against philly and atl, were under lewis, and against real defenses.

i just think zorn is on a leash and told what he is allowed to do, i think that any coach wanting to "find a spark" would try a seemingly amazing talent in mithcell

and as far as the play calling i honestly haven't seen anything that drastic, i guess you are refering to the times in which plays are called, i just feel that are o was the same with minor changes if the first few games with sherm, but once cp went out we started to light it up.

i guess my point would be that sherm has helped out a little bit, but portis getting a concusion actually helped us out more, as weird as that may seem, just because portis has been playing hurt all year and no one could actually stop him from sutiing up and playing, until he got the concussion

betts has been PRACTICING with first team and has a rythm with them which goes a long way

I think most of us were calling for Ladell Betts to be released this season because when he comes in the game he did not make plays. I think the O-Line has blocked much better the last 2 games than they have all season. Lets not mistake it that Portis is a better back than Betts will ever be but maybe Portis was playing hurst and also our O-line was just awful the 1st 7 games. This Sunday against Dallas we will see how well Betts does against a good Dallas front 7. Ladell Betts better hope our O-line can block Jay Rattlif and Demarcus Ware or it will be a long day for him.

I heard somewhere a while back that Zorn complained about not being able to get to his fiftenth play until late in the third qtr. He expressed that to the media or something with that said, he pretty much is calling a handfull of plays repeatedly without even adjusting to the defense. So the reason our offense had been so weak was that he was calling plays over and over again that where not having an effect. For instance earlier in the year on those goal line plays he ran to the left and were stuffed he just never adjusted to the personnel or anything.

He is not a coach look at ARE, still back there letting the ball bounce back for like 20 yds in a critical part of the game.

or when the red zone was failing and the comment surfaced that we had one play for Cooley and we already used it. Compare that to Lewis in the redzone, I can't remember the specifics, but basically he went to davis it didn't work so he went right back to him. But what really got me, was when we had to call a timeout because Zorn was waiting on a measure. He said that he had to know exactly before he could decide on a play. Well, maybe you have 2 plays ready, but to not have a play ready once the measure is done is ridiculous.
