there's lots of open field above the safeties too.

The reason you only get 1-2 chances isn't rocket science. It's only going to occur when those DBs are in zone, and don't get help, because the safeties are out of position trying to take away something shorter. It's why the shorter routes are so successful. You can throw them over and over, and the defense can't always afford to gamble to stop them. We have had great success throwing those routes this year and it should shock no one. Also, it may not be that apparent, but we don't throw screens and dumpoffs every play. That's why they are often there.

can't believe you think "opening up the run" is such a frivolous thing. how do you just toss that out there like its worthless. its what got us into the playoffs last season! and AGAIN, what do you keep calling "great success"? receptions made? what's it matter if they aren't turning into any points, and in Mark's case, even FIRST DOWNS??

GTripp, you are absolitely tripping if you think Santana, Lloyd and ARE were brought here just for curls and screens. i swear all you care about is Mark's QB rating.
