Yes, our o-line is decimated. Yes, you're putting some new faces out there. I just question our decision making/gameplanning/adjustments/playcalling or whatever you want to call it. We tried to give the game away, by some ultra conservative play. How about a rollout? How about a shotgun (i don't remember seeing it although i can't be sure)? I just got the feeling we were in shutdown mode again. Our offense can't leave the D on the field as long as they did and expect to keep a good offense down.

No question our oline couldn't run block & couldn't protect that well. IMO there comes a time when you just gotta go for it a little bit and try to win the game. We didn't and escaped.

I am happy we got a W b/c we've lost a couple of games that we should have won. 4-2...not bad at all, but we're not going anywhere w/out any offense.
