I hear that. I felt like we should have seen more stacked boxes than we did. Change the scheme, change the left side of the O line, change qb/receivers, change the coaches. Something (or all things) need to improve w the run game next year. We dont have the QBs/Receivers to be pass heavy offense like we were this past year.
Hard to really judge Scott Turner bc you didnt know how much personnel impacted the way he wanted to call games. Certainly the QB carousel played a large hand. If he got "good" QB play .. it came in quarters or halfs or even a drive or 2 but never anything continued from one game to the next that you could rely on and weekly game plan aorund.
OKfan - any chance you have the PFF for runs against stacked boxes percentage or any info like that? I know I read an article ranking the RBs vs stacked box for 2019.
