I guess whether or not theres a problem is purely opinional based on what your expectation for the offense is. If you look at the prior two years as the standard/expectation, then I would say there are no problems. We are up in PPG, YPG and pretty much every major metric from last year. Turnovers are down significantly.
On the contrary, if you thought that the additions we made would make us a top three offense, and that was your
expectation, then its pretty obvious this group hasn't reached your standards, and thus is underachieving. There are better offenses then us around the league.
And of course if you expected perfection (and there are people on this fourm who do), then there are a lot of problems. Brunell isn't perfect, Moss isn't perfect, Portis isn't perfect...etc. So yeah, then you call for Brunell's head, get Campbell, and as soon as he isnt perfect, call for his head.
I think a lot of us preseason, were thinking this would be a defensive mided football team, with a stronger offense than last year (cause thats what I was thinking). Well, one unit has met expectations, one hasn't, IMO. So rather than blame the unit that did meet expectations, I'm fed up with the one that didn't.
