Lets just scrap passing all together and run the option
I'm not joking. Why not?
Lets just start running the option. I think we can go out and sign Eric Crouch or Tommy Frazier and just start running the option. Or better yet - just put Rod Gardiner in at QB. I honestly think if we're going to have such little faith in our passing game that we consistently run on third and long, we might as well put a little spice into our game. Hell, maybe we should even run it out of the wishbone offense. Why not? What is Lou Holtz doing these days, could we persuade him to be our o-coordinator? |

Actually I think we could run this pretty effectively with Ramsey.

Pitching the ball out on the option may be too risky. Lets just hike it straight to the running back.

Switch Portis and Brunell so we'll have a better passing game

It's passing that's stuggling. Ditch the o-line and have 10 recievers. No... wait... that's Spurriers offense.

Run the option with Ramsey? Now that would be interesting.

While the option traditionaly dosent work... the way our passing game is, it has to be on par or better than that.

My only objection with that is Brunell should not be allowed to throw a pass. Let Gardner and Portis throw the halfback option deep pass and have Brunell do his thing at handing it off! If we want to work with what we have right now then there are hundreds of running plays they could run. We have to face the music right now like Brian Billick did in 2000. Defense wins games. Gibbs has lost all confidence in Brunell right now because the last 3 possesssions we had, i don't remember one pass.
