doesn't need too. if they think they're going to pass block they're in trouble, you keep giving the ball back to Russ with our D and we'll get run off the field
How are you going to avoid giving it back to him without getting first downs?

They have a bad defense. Keeping the other offense off the field should never be a game plan. If it happens, great, but not part of a game plan. Keeping the other offense off the field by trying to control the clock vs a bad defense instead of taking advantage of that bad defense is even more dumb.

The more you burn clock trying to keep the other offense off the field the less error you are allowed. Running 14min off the clock the 1st 2 drives and netting 6 or even 10 points isnt doing any good if the other team scored 14 in 7 min with 2 drives.

They are giving up 28 pts a game, should we take advantage of that or keep the score around 20 in hopes that a team scoring 36 points a game scores 19 or less? You think Sea philosophy should be to keep us off the field and not take advantage of our bad defense? Both teams try to control the clock instead of taking advantage of bad defenses? Try to keep the score low and with 4 min left ask the QBs to go out there and pull something out if their *** since they didnt take advantage of the bad defense from the start? Thats a great philosophy. Lol Its old, outdated and just dumb. Thats what Sea has done for about 4 years now with a defense that isnt what it once was and looks like they have figured out thats not the best way to go about it. Thats the way we have done for years and Im hoping we have figured out thats not a good way to go about it.

lol....a good run game is a bad defense friend, anybody that knows football, knows that.

they'll get first downs, Zeke is top form and their DL is hurting, run it down their throats and use playaction.
