This is why you're wrong.
In fact, it's why you're usually wrong.
This has nothing to do with winning a few more regular season games.
It has absolutely everything to do with winning a playoff game and being a true threat to do damage against
good teams. Can you imagine how different the Indy game is if Moss is going up for that jump ball instead of Bowe? Don't you think we could've put the Houston game out of reach?
Winning 3 games in January against premier opponents is a very difficult task and it's not something you're going to do with an offense that presents absolutely no threat further downfield than 15 yards. Safeties will crash the box, LBs won't respect the seams, corners will press cover so they can offer better run support.
You cannot afford to be one-dimensional against good teams and this move would help us eliminate that.
It's not about winning regular season games. It's about being relevant in January - a feeling we haven't had in 40 years and something that's not likely to happen with the philosophy you're espousing.
