Folks, first stop jumping off the bridge. I know that is hard around here after a loss.
This year is far from over. We are not a bad football team. We are just not an elite team at this point. Honestly at this point we could be 4-0, 3-1, 1-3, or 2-2. We happen to be 2-2. We are learning a lot about this team, and we have a lot of players playing very well. I like what I am seeing from a lot of them.
The future looks good for this team, but we are going to lose some ball games at this point.
We have one problem though! This is the main problem.
We just are not running the football very well! Folks this is our problem right now. This has a trickle down effect to everything we do.
It has a trickle down effect on the Passing game, and yes how aggresive we can get. Play action is not a threat right now, and we are getting into way to many obvious passing situations with too much yardage.
This is allowing teams to dictate to us what we do, instead of us dictating what we want to do.
It is effecting field position, it is not allowing us to man handle time of possesion.
We are a one dimensional team right now.
This is not a key to success for this team, and our coaching philosophy.
We have to run the ball much better. I am a huge Julius fan, and love the guy, but someting is wrong with him right now. He is not seeing the holes and cut back lanes. There have been some there, but he just is not seeing them.
Juluis has to become the back he was last year for this team to controll ball games.
Folks, if we can not run it better we will be in these types of games all year. We can not control games without the running game.
If we can be a threat running it, and getting production, we can control games, and win games.
It really is that simple at this point.
Today we lost the game because we lost the battle at the LOS on both sides of the ball.
They ran it, we did not!
