this is not how you overcome OL issues

you spread the D out and throw quick passes

Andy literally did that on Sunday and it got Pat hit again and again and again LMAO

I think the run-pass ratio was way out of whack

27-5 at one point I think.

He has to call more balanced attacks.

Quick passes and screens.

Not sure why Andy didn't go to that vs. the Colts, but it needs to be part of the gameplan this week.

They should've done that with the D line instead so they would know who to ****ing block...

They have to show they can be even moderately effective running the football first.

I spent most of that game feeling like any time we attempted to run the ball was a wasted down. That interior line is just doing such a shit job of run blocking that they constantly put us in bad down/distance spots and the rush gets to just tee off.

I know everyone wants Andy to be balanced but man, I think they just need to do what they're good at. And up until last week they were damn good at passing the football and still awfully mediocre at running it. If that means a 6-1 P/R ratio - so be it. Gotta move the football, lads.

I can’t figure the run game out though. It was pretty good against JAX, BAL, and DET. Definitely useful.

Awful vs. OAK and IND.

Shady has to get more touches than he did, I know that.

By now Andy and co. have to know they are facing a bunch of man coverage. Period. No guessing involved.

Scheme some stuff up and let’s roll. No reason to not be successful still.

I think the ankle was bothering him. I can't think of a reason he'd get no touches in the 1st half.

The fumble was really bad and extremely critical - lots of coaches have benched RBs for stuff like that. But as a rule, Andy doesn't.

So it's possible that the ankle just finally got the best of him and Andy was trying to give him a light week to let it rest up. It's really hard to say because sitting Shady as a punitive measure goes against most of what we've seen Reid do.

Sure but it didn't even feel like they tried. McCoy is by far our best RB and he finished the game with 0 carries. How does that happen?

very much so this....:mad:

That's why I think Shady was on a 'rest day'. Andy didn't want to use him at all, IMO.

He's never been a 'bench a guy for a fumble' kind of coach. And the fact that he didn't use him in the 1st half even before the fumble supports that.

I think he's trying to get Shady's ankle right and thought he could steal one. Then I'd imagine the ankle didn't respond and after the fumble he just decided to keep him shut down. Remember that Andy talked about Berry last year not being able to 'heat back up' after he got pulled from that Chargers game. He doesn't like to dry hump guys and put them back in if they haven't gone through a full routine.

I think McCoy was a 'use in case of emergency' option, he saw the game getting irksome and tried to use him to start the 2nd half and then decided that McCoy just wasn't gonna be able to handle the load after staying down in the 1st half.

Dunno - just a theory. I can't see Reid benching McCoy for a fumble when he's never done it for any other RB we've had here.

McCoy got a touch on the first drive.
