Has the game changed?

For how much the rules are slanted to help the passing game, we still have problems getting the ball to Kelly, Thomas, and Davis. As long as our passing attack is limited almost exclusively to Moss, Randle El, and Cooley, we will continue to have drives bog down. Almost every team running a WCO spreads the ball to a larger number of receivers. Perhaps it's still a trust issue with the youngsters, but we certainly make it look harder than most teams.

And we have for years and years. I have a hard time remembering when we were not a slow, plodding team.

Trust my ass. We have a bad coach and an average QB. Just about every "bomb" hasn't even been close and fade routes and sideline passes have routinely fallen short or way out of bounds. We will be dead last again in pass interference calls.
