Things that need to change for us to turn it around

2. Defense. When the defense couldn’t stop a wet paper sack from getting a touchdown it causes the offense to feel like they need to do everything which leads to risk taking. This is a multipart fix and I’m not really sure where to begin other than start with healthy starters.

3. Running game. I am tired of seeing CEH only get 3-4 yards on runs that should go for 10-15. Something needs to change there. McKinnon needs to be given a shot as a change of pace. Williams and Burton are great for short yardage. But our running game needs a game buster at RB.

4. Gordon. He needs to be more involved. Ideally The depth chart should be 1. Hill 2. Gordon 3. Hardman 4. Pringle. I’m over Robinson he doesn’t bring anything to this offense.

Can this be fixed? Yes. I think we will trade for some defensive help. Possibly part ways with LDT to make that happen. The good news is that 3 losses isn’t insurmountable. There is a good chance we travel in the playoffs this year if we do turn it around.

We don't have the back on the roster for #3. McKinnon is a training camp phenom. Save the running game for short yardage or when the game is salted. Mahomes or bust.
