It's called "illegal man downfield"!

So yeah, if you took any QB in the league and removed all the screens and the wide open passes and all successful plays that weren't deep bombs (ya know like the one he threw to Lloyd after he broke through his wall of "fear"), you'd end up with the Oakland offense. Congrats.

BRUNELL IS TEH SUXZ0RS!! BRING IN AARON BROOKS!

Wow, so you really think Brunell is our answer? You think the defense only gives us screen passes? I guess our offense really does suck if all you're going to do is "take what the defense gives us". You need to TAKE the yards and be aggressive, not sit back and hope.
There are a lot of people here thinking screens are great, but if you are familiar with Saunders offensive systems, he opens the field and throws a lot of crossing routes downfield. Why are our Skins not doing this? Has Saunders gone soft, or Brunell have no balls? (I choose the latter)
