On top of that from a coaching perspective we need new ideas. Bieniemy is not an Xs and Os guy. I think Nagy will be fine but we need someone with an actual plan to beat zone because to date we still think we are going to beat this by throwing a bunch of speed vertical guys. It’s not like we need elite personnel but right now it’s looking like we have some of the wrong personnel. We can’t have 0 rushing yards against defenses daring us to run. We can’t have mvs and Hardman on the field at the same time. Hell, our original plan was to put hill alongside mvs, maybe even hardman too.
So the question remains… do we think Pacheco or rojo solves our running game? Does skyy moore help us beat the deep zones and man coverage like we think they will? Right now it looks like the league’s adjustment is to date our receivers to beat them. And they haven’t proven they can. How much can you do with an offense where the defense doesn’t at all respect the run or the pass?
