We were conservative both games with play calling and he still had 2 in the first game and the rams dropped what should have been a sure int yesterday.

Im not saying Gruden has been terrible, just that, at times, he seems to try and get cute with some of his calls. Such as when he does do some first down passing (which imo, is a necessity at times in the NFL) that with our run game going like it has been, to do play action and let KC go for something. I have called for the offense to run screens in the past, but that is something to slow the pass rush down. When the OL is already doing that, then those dont have the effectiveness that they would of had in the past. So dont do screens on 1st down when we do pass there, play action it and look for something down field. KC is a good QB, the ints being his main problem. He is good at Grudens offense, so let him run it.

Granted, I wasnt expecting our OL to dominate 2 of the better D lines in the league nor was I expecting our defense to give up 20 points in 2 games. 20 points in 2 games is beyond fantastic. I keep expecting them to give up 20 points by halftime. If they keep giving up 10 points a game, the conservative play calling is less of an issue.

You realize that Gruden isn't calling the game. Right?
