Good old power football.

Ram it right down their throats. Enough with all the off tackle runs, I want to see us slamming it right up the middle.

That's the only way we're going to turn this around. This OL is built for smashmouth, so let's get it on!
I completely agree that that's how Washington SHOULD play, but that's more of Gibbs' playcalling style. Saunders loves the misdirection and off tackle runs, although I think those plays will be much more successful with Portis running them.

As far as passing, I think Brunell needs to throw the ball a signifigant number of times, to either work out the kinks in his execution, or prove to everyone that he can't run the offense.
