Numbers dictate. More plays equals more yards. More TDs, more wins. The whole ball control thing is becoming obsolete along with the running game. Greatest show on turf had it right. as well as Moss and the cheatriots. Spread the field, and let the RB catch the ball too. Then the RB can net the same amount of yards in 15 carries, than McCarthy would get lining up a FB and pounding it 30 times... (our strategy 3+ years ago) Marshall Faulk should have been our proto-type RB back in those days IMO.
Score as many TDs as possible in 60 minutes. And let Capers and the defense try to stop the other team more than they can stop us. Our big 5 was a great play. Unstopable in that there wasn't any team with 5 cover guys good enough to cover our big 5 with Rodgers throwing it. Eventually our weak O-line was exposed, and our 50 ypg rushing average allowed defenses to punish Rodgers for making them look TERRIBLE the year before! lol. We've beefed up the O-line again. Sherrod and Bulaga coming back is going to solidify our quality and quantity problems FINALLY!!! Then we got Lacy.... Thank god we got the RB that wins one on one battles consistently. Steven Jackson-esque. He is going to be the difference maker this season. His #27 in the backfield will be what gives our receivers that extra half step they need to break loose. A 230 pound beast to block for Rodgers, or is he a delayed handoff??? Run up the gut, or oh chit Jordy for 80 yards down the sideline??? And the off chance the defense plays it right and manages to cover Jordy/Cobb, and our army of up and coming WR/TEs...Rodgers will dump it off to Lacy and blow them up that way... Just like Faulk always did... Faulk was the unstoppable wild card. Defenses couldn't stop him with Warner/ Holt/Bruce forcing teams to play them... And Teams wont have anything left to stop Lacy with Rodgers/Nelson/ Cobb embarrassing the secondary....
The only way to get better is to do it strategically. More plays= more scores. And having a base Nelson/Cobb/Boykin or 2 TEs and Lacy, that we can run or pass out of. Keeping the defense on the field without personel changes... We can have advantages on top of our advantages... I love it. Open this offense up!!!
