Re: Generational thing
I remember Gibbs' first time around he was run run pass also, the O on had a couple plays and he dared you to stop them. Well now with free agency and salary caps, he doesnt have the offense line to execute his plan. Back then he had the biggest O line and they just pushed around d lineman, that doesnt happen anymore, there is a reason that "the hogs" were as famous as the were, they were the heart of the team. You could change runningbacks (Riggo, Byner, Morris etc.) and even change QBs (Theisman, Schroeder, Williams, Rypien), if you give a RB a huge whole or a QB all day they will put up monster numbers. Not to mention we had 3 great WRs (Monk, Clark, and Sanders), we cant even dress 3 quality WR this season. Zone blitzing and attack def and the change of the speed of the game have made Gibbs once high flying offense inept.
