[QUOTE="DTown SBrown, post: 300192, member: 2206"] For most of our games, we have seemingly played down to our opposition. THIS is a major concern, almost as if MM is worried about revealing too much to the solid teams. To let the Lions score and move the ball the way they did is almost sad. It seems like we were playing soft D all day. I only saw around 6 plays where we sent more than the from 3 on blitzes, and, while I am sure this was to prevent the short underneath stuff, we still got torched in that department. If we are going to play soft, put the guys who can cover the best out there... its called... NICKEL!!! Anyway, we were able to withstand, not for a lack of trying, and snatch a surefelt defeat and turn in a W. The Bears lost, so we are .5 games back. Either way, we do not look like the world beater team everyone had us as. We look like we are out of sorts on offense, with our hands tied. I am sure this will get better as the season progresses, but we have too much talent to be wasting on the BS run plays we have in our book currently while trying to prove we are a "balanced team". Air it out in 5 wide MM. Thats who we are. Stop trying to paint a zebra brown and call it a donkey. We are pretty good at being a zebra. If you can convince TT to grab a solid set of stripes (ala a running back of any REAL caliber) then we can adjust and go back to power running. I like Kuhn, and BJAX is a great blocker, but starting or even serviceable RBs for a season... THEY ARE NOT... Make a worthwhile move to get a real RB and then talk about running the ball. All in all, it was a pretty good day. Lets hope for more and pray that we find some rhythm we are so desperately needing. [/QUOTE]
