Everyone has good ideas it seems. I am wondering if anyone with some more technical knowledge of offense can discuss the notion of going down field. I didn't feel that our inability to go downfield (meaning deep ruotes at 20 or 30 yards) was our particular problem last year. I felt like we couldn't complete a pass over 10 yards. Intermediate routes were where we got killed much of last year. It seems that o-line play and route running would be the key issues there. I'd definitly like to see our intermediate pass offense start clicking. That will open up downfield play making and give us a good shot on 3rd downs. It seems Ramsey was a little mroe successful than Brunell on this type of stuff. What wasn't he beter at?
