glad coach parcells finally used the shotgun more....no 5 wr sets either...i never liked that formation that is just asking for trouble with bledsoe patting the ball that is an easy sack without blesoe in the 'gun. i really like bledsoe in shot gun with 2 rb. more blitz pick ups and they can swing out for passes. we should use that more often.
 
shotgun still worries me cause when he gets sacked in shotgun he will lose atleast 10 yards

good point, but i think those 1-2 extra seconds are worth it
 
The shotgun doesn't give the QB more time before he can release the ball, it just gives him more time to stand in the pocket and read the defense rather than having to do that while dropping back 5-7 yards

I would like to see more wide open sets...it seems that Bledsoe was able to check down effectively yesterday and find Crayton for some nice plays.

im sorry but i didnt know a QB can throw the ball while dropping back 7 steps at the same time?? shotgun = no 7 step drop which = more time to throw the ball....am i right?

yes you are
 
I'd like to see more play action pass... I think it's totally ridiculous that the running game is actually looking decent this season, but we don't play off of that more.

Any team that plays Dallas knows what is coming on 2nd and 3 yds to go or 3rd and 2 yds to go... RUN up the middle.

i agree. with T.O. and T.G. we should throw atleast 2 deep balls a game. let julius do his thing then in the 2nd quarter.....BAM! 68 yard td pass to terry or glenn.
