Vrabel is going to play balls to the walls on offense, IMO. If they think they can send Jones out there on 3rd downs and just pin his ears back, I think they're mistaken.

This is probably true. Vrabel will definitely run the ball on 3rd and 5+ in certain spots, IMO. I don't know how much he'll do it inside his own 40-yard line after seeing what Pat and Andy did last Sunday, but after that distance, I can see him rolling the dice, and often if he has some success early.
But I also think Spags knows this, and has been thinking about and working on some solves since week 10. So I'm not that worried. Yet.
