more offense gripe

#1: why are talented players austin and mcgee with breakaway speed still on the sideline.  (yes i know austin muffed the punt)  i'm tired of markey and bell being rundown by linebackers and occasionally linemen (i thought running backs are supposed to have some speed) and didnt mcgee break one during that scrimmage not so long ago?

#2: wtf was that 4th and goal play.  just from expericence of playing video games sweeps and pitchs suck because you limit yourself to half the field to work with, the lineman lined up in the gap the pulling guard vacates usually ends up in the backfield, as result of all the action ppl usu miss there blocks and the play gets blown up, especially on the goaline when there bringing the house.  how bout play action and dump it to a tight walking the endline or what we did before by just putting in the stomach of moline.

#3: how come our coaches couldnt figure out how similar a 3-4 is to a 3-3-5?  wow just insert a db got a 3-3-5?  or just dropping those 4 linebackers makes 8 defenders, wow it must be fucking magic.  again why not use or receivers throw 4 or 5 of the field and make linebackers cover receivers not just tight ends, and just for ben olson's sack open up more passing lanes

#4: speaking of tight ends, logan and moya made some good plays how bout incorporating them more especially in the redzone?

#5: let ben olson throw downfield, yeah he might of been nervous, maybe the lack of pass pro, or both but damn when they stack the line have 1-on-1 throw it up top, breazell was sooo open cause they were staking the line.  and whatever happened to the seam route, that was a staple last year to the pass game

but then again what do i know right?  can someone please remove the chip inplated in svoboda's head thats destroying any sense of creativity and please dorrell you already won the art shell look alike contest

Just from my experience playing video games
is not a real solid way to start a serious critique of the offense.

That said, sweeps work most of the time on the goal line.  However, you only run sweeps against large, slow-moving defenses, not against a smaller team that practically begs you to ram it down their throats.

the intro to the post
was meant to take a shot the consistently poor playcalling of our coaches.  yeah sweeps do work against certain teams but up the gut either with moline or pitre, or having 6'5" ben olson wouldve probably worked a lot better and a better bet
