Other teams seem to alter their offensive approach based on the strengths and weaknesses of their players as matched up against those of their opponent. It seems pretty obvious to me that, when the enemy stacks the box with 8 or 9 ugly bastards intent on stopping straight-ahead rushes, and if your line isn't capable of manning up and moving guys off the ball with sheer brute force, you would try try another tactic - not keep running into their strength time and time again. Enemy defenses have been consistently crowding the LOS for probably over 18 games at this point (at least since the Indy playoff), yet we continue to play into their strategy?

As mentioned earlier, some Planeteers seem to think that the reason we're taking that approach is because we lack talent. I'm not so sure that makes a heck of a lot of sense. And if not, why do we continue to do it?

I've got nothing Mr. FAX. I can only contend that Herm=FAIL. That's the only thing I could think of for continuing to do the things that you get consistently domintated at.
