our offense is built to be smash mouth, run down your throat, offense. this finess crap doesn't fit our line. They said it last year, let us attack the D-line, let us run it right at them. Like they did the last 6 games last year. Portis ran his ass off behind that O-Line. to not run on 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1 was a slap in their face. I think sometimes Al tries to get a little to fancy with the plays. We just need to line up and let them win the game in the trenches. When they start playing that 8th man at the line, that is when we hit them with some play actions deep or over the middle.

Our O-line looked very unmotivated against the Giants. I think that had to do with the calls. Plus, when teams KNOW to HAVE to pass, they pin their ears back and go after the QB. with two good pass rushers able to just rush the passer, it makes for a long day if you are a QB.

Redskin football isn't this crap we did Sunday, its what we did the last part of the year. Plus, with our O going 3 and out so many damn times, the D is on the field a lot more than last year. The D will play better, be fresher if they are on the sidelines for a while to catch their wind.
but what do I know!
