I agree with much of that. Why so many screen passes on offense? I don't buy that Brunell's arm is weak - that was a perfect strike for the 50 yard bomb to Lloyd. We need to take more shots to prevent defenses from stacking the box against Portis. But we really need to reassert the running attack. Portis has to be frustrated - averaging 4+ yards per carry, two touchdowns, yet only 14 carries? I'm confident the offensive woes can be fixed. I'm not nearly as optimistic about the defense - the pieces just don't seem to fit. Even the play of Taylor and Washington has become shaky, which is scary since they're our two best players on D.
