Re: The Right Players For The Offense
I think the Lineman themselves are responsible. Samuels has had some good years some bad. This seems to be a bad one. Ditto Jansen. Rabach does some things well but not others. Thomas may never play like he did last year again. (age, broken leg) They never have consistently played well. I think the Saunders offense has them confused as well. I would like to see them come out after the bye week with a more simplified running attack and get the hell away from all the screens and draws. Run the ball 30 times with Portis regardless of the score and try three 9 routes a half. That leaves at least 20 pass plays where they can TRY to drop back a throw REGULAR passes.
I think it's more than presumptuous to say that Gibbs doesn't understand the value of line play. I don't think it really deserves a response.
