Play calling was much different in the last game. Downfield passes were thrown. We didnt go into a shell with a 3 point lead. Those were also reasons for our success. However, that line couldnt get us in the end zone from the 5 on 4 occasions.

If you had better reading skills and werent soooooo invested in the Cassel BS around here, you would see that I aggree that we need a new Qb. Just not willing to say he's the only thing wtrong with the offense. Blamingh all our problems on one guy is just lazy and shows little football knowledge.

Did you notice we had a different coach on Sunday too? Yes. Things looked a little different.

The O-Line graded out so poorly because Matt Cassel is a terrible QB.

He hold the ball to long, delivers it late and inaccurately.

We went downfield in this game because Orton, a mediocre QB, at best, can actually make reads and make the throws.

If Cassel's first read downfield isn't open, he either dumps it off to his safety valve, or holds the ball and takes a sack or runs from pressure.
