We ran the ball much better against GB than against Philly, but we didn't stick with it, part because of the score, part because I think that's a Kyle tendency.
More diversity in the offense cannot hurt, but some of that has to fall on the defense to keep us in the game a little longer.

Oh by no means am i letting the d off the hook. First team in nfl history to give up that many yards in the first two games. However if its going to be shootouts that win the game than lets score 35 and hope that atleast some extended drives will give the d enough time to catch their breath and maybe just maybe make one or two more stops to win said shootout. There is no way our offense puts up enough points to mask the defense if Griff runs three times a game. From what ive seen he is more than healthy enough to scramble for 6-7 yards at a clip starting in space on a rollout/bootleg and help metriculate the ball down the field for those one or two more scoring drives that would have kept us in both games.
