Two big problems on offense: 3rd downs & red zone

[Longtimefan]

Part of the problem is the team is so one dimensional. Not being able to run the ball and not having reliable red-zone receivers only compound the problem.

If the numbers are going to improve, we must establish some semblance of a running game and stay committed to it. [easier said than done] Until then, play action is useless, teams will just ignore it knowing you're not going to run anyway. 6/32 3rd down completions is horrible.
