Re: Offense this year

I also think that goalline playcalling must be changed a bit, along with being less conservative and more aggressive. TO's are dangerous, but don't harp them so hard you scare everyone!

Yeah it was like Gibbs had a stroke every time we got inside the 5 yard line. I mean it really isn't that hard to get 5 yards. I guess our crappy o-line was a big part of that but we looked at our worse in goal line situations.

Re: Offense this year

Well - 3 runs up the middle isn't THAT hard to defend.

Re: Offense this year

Honestly, if our defense plays like they did last year, I'm not even totally worried about error free. I'm not saying try to be the Rams out there, but in their part of the field, take some chances! 4th and 1 on their 35 yard line. Try to get it!

Re: Offense this year

Yeah definitely. And like you were saying Daseal, we DO need to throw a bit more inside the red zone, especially with that playaction pass to Cooley. That worked the majority of the time.

Re: Offense this year

The single most important thing for the offense next year is to be 110% certain that Patrick Ramsey stays upright. If he goes down, you are looking at Brunell and Hasselbeck. That may be a wonderful firm to hire to do your taxes, but that ain't the team that's gonna get you deep in the playoffs.

Funny!

One thing that I would like to add to my original first three is red zone scoring. That was huge! I can even count how many times we didn't punch it in! I felt that we passed way too many times when we should have ran!!

Re: Offense this year

no 1 2 3s but i saw something on nfl network, the playbook show for the nfc east and they showed ramsey and they showed that he wasn't making good reads and they commented that we had the best chance outside of the Eagles to get the wildcard. They said everything was in place but a CB which they said was surprising because we were good on D and bad on Offense, they said that we do need to take more shots down field and they said that would only come with protection and then said that we now have protection with "samuels coming back" i think they meant janson because the guy studdered when he said it and the addition of Rabach which they said was a big improvement. They all agreed in saying that our wide reciever set is worse for next year than this year but i am happy. Their biggest complaint was about ramsey, at the end they asked which team was gonna get a wild card from the nfc east and 2/3 said the skins under the condition that ramsey evolves they said that he now needs to take responsibility and if he does we will win

Re: Offense this year

1. Better pass protection and run blocking from the OL.
2. Stretch the offense out a little more...this year we just may have the receivers who will get open up field for us.
3. Ramsey must do a better job with his reads...we can't afford for him to dump the pass off to the 5 yard guy when we need 15+ yards for a first down.

Re: Offense this year

With a strong running game-we can throw any pass routes we want. Use Betts more on shortyardage and throw DEEP 6-7 times a game.

Re: Offense this year

Creative play calling. No more 3 runs up the middle in a row in the red zone.
Have Portis run wide around more.
More mid and long range passing.
Make sure Ramsey knows he's the man the entire year.
