On offense, I think we can have success going away from Seymour, setting up some of the naked bootlegs that we ran against Minny in the preseason.
Obviously if our O-line doesn't do an adequate job of establishing a run, it won't matter. But I think we'll get it done.

We are going to have to play possesion pass by throwing to Bowe and letting him use his body to block out defenders. That means quick passes though, like slants and stuff. We can't let Cassell hold the ball or the Raiders line will kill us
