[QUOTE="Greg C., post: 24404, member: 195"] IPBprez: I'm not giving the coaching staff a free pass. I just think the problems are more with how the team is preparing, or failing to prepare, for games. The play-calling is not much different from when the offense was more successful late last season. Davenport didn't get many carries in this game, I'll give you that. But he did carry the ball more often in the first two games, and during the preseason, and he's done NOTHING all year. The guy weighs 250 pounds. Is it asking too much for him to break a tackle once in awhile, like he used to? I think part of Ahman Green's problem running the ball is that the sweeps aren't working, and they seldom even call them anymore. Some of Ahman's biggest runs used to come on those sweeps, with the interior linemen pulling and getting downfield. There's a reason why Mike Wahle and Marco Rivera are making boatloads of money right now, and why Adrian Klemm and William Whitticker (not to mention Matt O'Dwyer) are not. This is a big dropoff in skill level at the guard position, which has affected the entire offense, and Flanagan hasn't looked so hot this year either. As for the part about re-watching the game, I'm fine with you disagreeing with me, but you don't have to be so condescending about it. Just tell me why I'm wrong. [/QUOTE]
