No Audibles

I think that Saunders tries to design his plays so that they are immune to any look the defense gives. Shades of Spurrier. Spurrier would have tried to block Demarcus Ware with Christian Fauria too.

What a depressing thought. Saunders is Steve Spurrier without the combination routes. He's Horizontal Spurrier.

at least Spurrier knew the direction of the endzone. christ did i just say that??

i don't believe Saunder's offense was purely horizontal, i remember plenty of downfield, over the middle shots to Gonzalez. Cooley should be that guy here, he has some of the same ability.

You guys have to realize that Saunders is not running the offese he want's to. KC the last four or five years were always a top ten rushing/passing offense. It all starts with the QB. And if you don't have the trigger man then it just does not work.

Spurrier didn't have audibles or hot reads. Gibbs had them. That's what the yellow 30 and green 60 business was all about. Most of them were nothing but there were always a few that were live for that game.

Rypien used to change the play all the time at the line in 1991. He used hand signals. It was very effective that year.

Exactly.. Trent Green is twice the QB Brunold is. He's not afraid to throw the ball down the field, stand in the pocket and take a hit to deliver the ball, use that huge green area between the hash marks, throw to more than 2 receivers in one game. Doing those things and using the screen game (where is the HB screen?) open up the running game significantly.

So if Brunell was to be allowed to call audibles what is it that you guys think he would audile to? A quick check-down maybe? Is that what we want? I think that these are already built into the play.

If anything, he should call out his protections the way Manning does.

You should check your statistics before you spout off and try to tell us things you do NOT know.

Height: 6-1
Weight: 217
Born: 09/17/1970
College: Washington
NFL Experience: 14






31,826 career passing yards compared with Trent's 25,711

p.s. Look it up, they both were born in 1970.

Thanks for the Brunell profile, and it is relevant how? At any point in the past 6 years I'd rather have Trent Green over Brunell.. He is a better QB, especially for this system..
