I had to laugh after I read the first sentence. is there any offense that's based on a bad OL? seriously!!! that's your line.

Actually, what I was saying is I think a hybrid of a west coast and the run n gun may help exercise the strength of our offensive line.

and in your expert opinion, we should change offense in the middle of a season to a run & gun.
|
I didn't say they should do it in the middle of the season. But it wouldn't hurt for them to scrap what's not working and replace it with plays that our designed to get the ball out quickly.

and when was the last time the run & gun worked in the NFL?

I said a hybrid. But by definition, the run & gun (or run & shoot, as it was originally called) focuses on spreading out the defense, motioning receivers to create mismatches, and a fast tempo. That, mixed in with a West Coast offense, by my estimation, would be a great fit for the type of players we have. But I am no expert, far from it. So I certainly could be wrong. I responded because this forum is for people to offer their opinion and for others to make fun of those who do so to make them feel better about themselves. I hope your response to my opinion worked out for ya...

when was the last time an offense worked without a decent OL?

I think our OL is decent...as I said before, I believe Garrett is not using them correctly.

btw, most teams run to the strong side. its called that because most teams run to the side of a TE. because of the strong blocker. that's why most teams put their pass rushing DE on the weak side. etc. etc. but all of that probably just went right over your head.
|
I know what the strongside is. But running to the strongside everytime is the equivalent of focusing primarily on the pass. You have to run to both sides to keep the defense honest. The occasional cut back wouldn't hurt either...

the running plays work because the linemen block. I don' tcare how you design running plays, if the OL doesn't block, you go nowhere.
|
Granted. But there are different blocking schemes for different types of offensive lineman. Simply google blocking schemes, I'm not going to take the time to explain it to you.
Agreed.
